📖 THE STORY

You and a team of brave explorers were forced to make an emergency landing on Mars. The worst part of it all, is that there's a solar storm heading directly towards you! Will you be able to repair the ship and bring your team safely back to Earth in time?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • There was a cool way for us to "open" and "enter" the initial area.

  • The props and set design went well with the theme of the game.

  • The transformation of the set design from one room to another was quite a big contrast. One moment you were on Earth, then all of a sudden you're on Mars, and then...(you'll need to find out on your own).

  • Other than logic puzzles, we also enjoyed the fun little physical puzzle that we had to maneuver.

  • The finale mechanism that brought us home was a nice surprise.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • One prop that we had to activate had a specific way we had to input a sequence. We were also unclear about where to input the sequence. This needs to be more clear.

  • In the latter part of the game, we weren't sure of the functionality of certain buttons as they weren't lit. It would be great if they could light up. Or else we will think they are just props.

  • One of the items we acquired towards the end should be placed in something a bit more prominent rather than just on the floor since it was an important item that we needed to bring us home.


🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

The set design and lighting for this room were a big improvement from the other rooms at this location. The game felt like it was going through a story and each room was the next chapter. The game also had a conclusive ending that made us feel like we've completed our mission. We look forward to seeing Escapeability's new room and where they are heading in the future!
