Alcatraz: VR Escape Room

Escape Room: Alcatraz is yet another escape room to come to the Vive, but it's a pretty good one. It has a few frustrations, like the telescope being upside-down for some reason, and it seems like there's more to the game than what's playable (if you move your head through the walls you can clearly see things like a fully decorated bathroom and a hallway, but you never access or even see them, which seems bad for optimization), but you still get a fairly nice escape room at a fairly low price.

It's a nice little escape room. The puzzles are not too easy and not too hard. Beat it in around 45min. The game has also a timelimit of 1h. It's definitely worth the money, but could be a bit longer/multiple rooms.

Recently got addicted to Escape the Room games, thanks to VR. Loved the game. A few of the puzzles had me scratching my head for a bit. Was a lot of fun and im excited for the next chapter. Took about 30-45min to beat. Similar to Abode in length

Great game. I played it with two other people (I was in VR and the others spectated and helped). It was amazing for all of us :-) We need more of this kind of games! The price is a little bit too high. In my option 3€ would be a good deal, because you can play it only once - like the most escape room games. Sometimes the text messages were hard to read in VR, but that is caused by the resolution of the HTC Vive. By the way: The two other could read everything clearly on the monitor and helped me out ;-)

This was probably the most solid escape room experience for VR I've had yet. It was a lot of fun and there were many puzzles that added to the challenge of the game. The ending was a bit meh, but it does allow for sequels to be added so I commend them for that.

I love escape room games, and yet somehow I can't give this game the thumbs up. The puzzles aren't particularly "fun". Some are tedious, such as [spoiler] morse code [/spoiler], and often the obvious thing to do (such as [spoiler] melting the ice on the screwdriver - in real life one would just smash that ice off with the hammer [/spoiler]} can't be done and instead some elaborate puzzle needs to be solved instead. It does have a hint system, but it's not a good hint system. The hint system tells you exactly what you need to do, which takes away the fun, whereas a good hint system would just give a clue to prod you in the right direction.

I wouldn't recommend this game in a current state. There are many bugs that need to be fixed like objects falling through each other, almost impossible to pick something from a drawer. And the worst showstopper is that sometimes quest items are teleported outside the window and it's impossible to take them back into the room.

+Fun +Nice little escape room +/- Price -Way too easy -Short -"To Be Continued" Feels like an excuse to end game early 2/5 Great Escape room, but i wouldn't pay half of the price for it, it feels like the "To Be Continued" was made because they ran out of ideas for the escape.

Ok first off this game was kinda hard no joke it took me an my brother almost 2 hours to complete this game. We had to ask the devs over facebook on how to beat the game I would buy this game if you like escape games hope later on they release more rooms of the house! thanks @OrginsVR for helping me finish the game I must be kinda dumb

Loved the game. Couple times through now with friends and family and sometimes the keys get stuck outside the window before it's unlocked. Hopefully there's a fix for this glitch. Super fun though. Ready for the next update.
