Really superior to any other ‘escape room’ kinda game. This is in a league of its own. It is hard enough to where you feel a sense of accomplishment, but not so hard that it’s aggregating. There are (free) hints if you get stuck. And the hints don’t just point you to the answers but […]

Well worth the money. Some of the difficulty in the puzzles comes from the poor lighting and limited visibility on a small screen. Perhaps that is part of the charm. Once you find each clue, it is usually pretty obvious what to do with it. The game is fun and engaging. There are hints available […]

Tough puzzle game with quirky clues… sometimes leaving me wandering around for lengthy periods trying to process what I’m seeing, how I need to look at things differently. Then as I start getting familiar with puzzle quirks I come to the end. I practically played none stop from beginning thru the end. I was so […]

The exact opposite of the typical Room Escape game; instead of trying to get out, you’re trying to get /in/ — into increasingly small boxes. Delightful puzzles, very helpful hints (that don’t just give away the puzzle), and a beautiful aesthetic and mystery that totally draw you in! It’s a little spooky, so be prepared […]

Yep, not much bad to say about this one. This game is a level of sophistication above most others of this genre. The sound effects and music created a nice suspense/creepy vibe, the puzzles were varied, interesting and challenging, and it was visually stunning. There were two minor issues worth mentioning. Firstly, there is a […]

Thought the game had great atmosphere, enjoyed the little hints of story littered throughout, but I personally found it a little too easy and way too short. Considering it was only $1, that’s not that bad. However, I feel since this is the first in a series, it should have been free as a better […]

I’ve played a lot of these Myst-style puzzle games – including Myst – although this is the first on the Android platform that I’ve ever payed for. I need to spend my money wisely, as I am disabled and on a very fixed-income. Turns out it was money very well spent. This game is utterly […]

Wow! This is an incredible value for a dollar. It’s pretty short, but there’s some really neat stuff and incredible visuals packed into a day or two of off-and-on gameplay. If you’re familiar with puzzle terminology, The Room features a series of “procedural discovery” puzzle boxes, meaning all the tools and clues needed to succeed […]

I have played several mystery type puzzle games…but this is by far the most awesome game ever. From just reading the reviews and watching the video, I purchased it right away. OMG! The 3D graphics and the way you maneuver around the box it amazing! The game is quite challenging…. I may have to walk […]

The Room is an interesting puzzle game, feeling almost like a reverse escape room, where you’re breaking into something rather than escaping a room. It had clever puzzle mechanics, and it never veered towards becoming thoroughly unreasonable or requiring a walkthrough. It didn’t entirely “hit” for me, though, as there are many instances where I […]

For a dollar it’s a great game, puzzle, and purchase. Is it the best puzzle ever…no but it gets your brain working. I’d say the first “chapter” or 2 are perfect but then it gets to a non user friendly place after that, in terms of knowing what you can or can’t interact with. Blah […]

5+ stars hands down! Best escape room games EVER! I have played them all, and can never get bored of them! Partly because there’s so much to do in each chapter of each game that I can’t remember it all. Highly recommend! It is worth the money! I can’t wait to buy the next escape […]

An unparalleled experience in puzzle games, The Room is almost without equal. If you’re hesitant to spend money on games not knowing whether they’ll deliver as promised, no worries here. The Room offers unique & challenging puzzles, stylish graphics and hypnotic ambiance. It’s a definite “game changer” that’s well worth the price of admission.

Guess I’ve never left a review. What can I say. Amazing interactive puzzle game. One thing leads to the next and back to the beginning and what not. Constant thinking. There are clues if you are lost. Great puzzle game. Can be beaten in 2 hrs I believe was my fastest time. And yeah it […]

Good puzzles, mostly not too hard or easy. A couple were really tough. Some were a bit annoying cuz you have to be in perfect position, or you check the hints and it tells you to do exactly what you are already doing and it’s just at slightly the wrong angle. Overall a fun short […]

I actually picked this up after finishing the VR one on my mom’s oculus and just, man, this group is damned good. there’s just enough story to make you curious without over explaining, and the puzzles are fantastic. the hints are helpful if you get lost (I saw the visual disturbance. how did I not […]

Awesome game. I love the unique take on puzzling. It’s challenging, satisfying and makes you think “outside the box” sometimes. I gladly spent the small price on the experience. It would have earned the 5-star rating if it were a bit longer and the story were more immersive. Overall, I have to say this is […]

Very Short Game Expected Way More!! for $1 it’s okay but really did not expect it to be so short. If this was a book at 3 chapters it really wouldn’t pass as a book nor should this pass as a complete game. It seems that the developer has developed a multitude of “The Room(1,2,3,4)” […]

It’s been a while since a game got me hooked. The visual details along with puzzles have just the right amount of interest and difficulty. The hints are helpful if you find yourself in a jam but you can usually figure things out on your own. This was my first “The Room” game and I […]

A really fun game! I love that you can get a hint that doesnt just say what the answer is. You get 3.5 “chapters” or levels. I bought this game last night and finished it today. I dont often spend money on games but when I do I dont expect to completely finish the objectives […]
