way too buggy for me to play. was losing items in the floor, getting soft locks on exiting the game and doesn't even seem to have a menu system.
Out of all of the games in the Blue Entropy "escape room" bundle, this is definitely the shortest and buggiest. The is a "hard" "not recommended" rating. The only reason to own this game is because it came in the bundle.
I finished this is about 5 minutes. The only reason I have more playtime than that is because of bugs that required me to restart the game. At one point I dropped my flashlight and it melted in to the floor and then proceeded to bounce around the entire universe at warp speed and caused the game to crash completely. I completely exited SteamVR but somehow the game kept running in the background and I had to force-close it from Windows.
Some reviewers mentioned this as a negative but I did like the two jump scares in the game. I didn't find any of the puzzles that difficult which made the inclusion of a "hint" feature bizarre.
As a warning, there is a part of this game where a door opens up that literally requires you to "crawl" in your playspace to get through. I liked this and thought it was a cool mechanic, but anyone that could have a problem physically doing that will not be able to complete this game. There is no warning on this game that this is required.
This game feels like an itch.io demo that you would download for free. It feels like it could actually be part of a bigger game.
I feel like a game done in this spooky style and atmosphere that was maybe 20 minutes or so long could be really good and definitely worth $4 or $5. With the Blue Entropy games it always seems like the developers have a really great concept for the game and flesh out an idea of what an actual game would look like in that style, but then they stop at the concept stage and just release that.
Short, dingy, poor to no collision detection. Lighting is wrong in many places. Ending makes no sense. This seems like a tech experiment/prototype that they threw up on the store. I would pass this one up.
+Interesting Spooky Escape room
+Cheap
-Easy puzzles
-Constant Strobe hurts eyes
-Jumpscares are more annoying and overused than scary
2/5
Easy puzzles, badly placed irritating jumpscares and constant bad development choices make this escape room a no go.

I have purchased games for less that had more content than this. I received this game as part of a bundle purchase, so I did end up saving some money on this game. Unfortuneately, this is by far the worst game of the series, however it is also the first in the series and the games do get better. You don't get multiple areas in this game like you do in the newer games in this series, and there isn't really anything to solve. There is 1 code box, but unfortunately I saw the combination to open it almost immediately when searching. The keys were quickly found after that as well. Room scale games have limited space, but that doesn't mean you can't put a few logical puzzles into the game. Instead of the keys lying in the open, they should be obtained by solving puzzles. As is, the game is extremely short and a pretty easy hidden object seeking game.
(Do not pay full price if you decide to get this game; buy it on sale. At full price the game currently costs $3.99. There is about 8 minutes of gameplay for advanced users)
Also: I don't think you can even escape, the only choice I've seen is that you have to kill yourself in the end.
Did I win or did I lose? I have no idea. It just quit on me and rolled the credits. Very short.
I hate to give this a negative rating, because of the higher quality of the sequels. Reduction in price by a dollar, or a quality polish, or a small extension might make it more desirable. It's very harsh on the eyes, at least with that initial strobe light. The sound is also abrasive. The puzzles weren't bad, and I love having to duck/crawl and having the evil walls change on you. Yet, just as it seems to get good, it's over. If you just bought energy drinks and a $20 steam card at the drugstore, and you're on the prowl for escape room games, get the cabin sequel. A gem for a indie bundle, though.

The entire thing is solved just by looking around in a small space - no real puzzles here. I also had some performance issues. Plenty of better escape rooms out there so don't waste your money.
It is quite creepy, if you like that sort of thing. I found the flickering lights to be very annoying.
it says i played for 11 minutes but it lies, i saw the word jump scares and closed the game instantly, closed the game in vr, it crashed and left a bug report thing up for a bit
but if you enjoy forced jump scares and if this game is anything like the 2 other games they made, it should be acceptable
This game is REALLY short. I am becoming a huge fan of room escape games in VR, but this feels very much like a quickly put together student project. That being said, the next game from this developer (The Cabin) is a big step up from this one, so it appears that they are learning as they go.
Excellent, Well Done, Good Puzzles, Just enough jump scares. OK, so it didn't last long, so what. VR "games" is in it's infancy, it's at the very early stages of development, we gamers are its test subjects. Keep up the good work devs, read the reviews, take on board gamers comments, ignore the criticism (some jerks just love the sound of their own bleating".
This game is REALLY short! Steam tells me I’ve been playing for 13 minutes and that’s how long it took me to finish the game. And I even had to restart once since my flashlight got lost (glitched outside of the play area).
During my short gameplay I experienced a couple of jumpscares, claustrophobic moments, and some pretty basic puzzles. And it was delivered with an excellent use of roomscale. I loved it!
I do not recommend buying this for the full price of 4 dollars. However, if you’re buying The Cabin (a much better game from the same developer) you’ll get this one pretty cheap in the bundle.
Took 9 mins to complete, including the gltiches. It was 50% off but doesnt compare well to similar demos which are free.
As one reviewer says, the use of space is good, but with clipping the hidden places are not too hidden.
Jump scares are also a bit tame/lame.
Sometimes creepy.
The playtime is short.
The riddles are solvable.
It is great to see the person in VR if it crouches around on the ground :-D
For spectators the screen mirror is a bit too dark (sometimes you can't see things, that the person in VR can see clearly).
There are much glitches and it happened two times that something you need got lost, if you are not very careful with taking it and laying it down. The only solution was to restart the game. "The cabin" works better.
I'm not really convinced by this game.
Positive:
+ Good graphics
+ Nice idea of reusing the space again and again (that's the best of this game)
Negative:
- No real riddles
- Jump scares are simply not necessary and destroyed the fun for me
- No story
- Very short, even for this little money
It's a fun and short game, and really funny to watch friends crawl around in the floor. Some of the objects were a bit buggy, but nothing gamebreaking. Definitely worth the price.
Very buggy game. The horror element is made up of a cheap jumpscare. The only positive that I can think of is that you have to crawl through a tunnel, wich was fun. I would wait for a massive deal, like 75% to be worth it.
In short, the game neither satisfied my craving for puzzles nor horror.
The game was too short and there really was not much of a puzzle to solve. There was nothing clever about it as it was just a mini treasure hunt for keys which were placed in plain sight. I would have finished in about 5-10 minutes if it wasn't for recurring bugs that led to me having to restart the game every time.
The horror element to the game is pretty cheap. Just a 3D model that pops up with a loud sound, a flickering light, and themed music.
The only good thing I have to say about this is the devs are active and have fixed one bug that was causing me problems, and will probably fix the other bugs that damaged my experience.
Loved it, short but sweet escape room with a nice little mechanic in it near the end. Great atmosphere, cant complain for the price, well worth picking up :-)
So far I've found 4 keys and not been able to progress past the first part because none seem to fit the cupboard. I also lost my flashlight when it fell through the floor and departed from the universe. Still, I will wait for the bug fixes beacuse this game is edgy as shit and I'm a sucker for escape games.
