Closed Room is a room escape game, consisting of the usual controls. You touch items around you, collect some of them, and interact with others. The objective of this game is to use your environment and your wits to solve numerous challenging puzzles and finally escape the room.
If you’ve played “Ellie”, you may be expecting some almost impossible puzzles in this game. While there are some tough challenges here, don’t worry. Closed Room is simpler, and the objects you find offer helpful hints on their uses. There are many clues to find here, and this game will last you much longer than you imagine for such a minimalist room. The controls are also very intuitive and responsive, which is not always the case with free room escape games.
One thing I really appreciated was the little red laser dot that appears every time you tap somewhere and there is nothing of importance. Lets you know that your tap registered. With so many other room escape games, it’s unclear whether or not your touch registered, which can lead to a lot of frustrated hyper-tapping.
There were a couple of things that bothered me in the game. A central puzzle has multiple parts, all of which must be completed in one go, as the game will not save your progress. This can be very frustrating, as you can’t take a break and come back later. So be sure to start it when you have plenty of time to spend. Also, the “Start” and “Continue” buttons are on top of each other, and I accidentally restarted my game. They never asked me to ask if I want to reboot; he just did it anyway. So be very careful when you return to the game not to make the same mistake as me. But if you get past these little problems, the game offers good quality room escape fun for free!
If you are looking for a challenging escape game to mess around with, look no further! This app even comes with Closed Room 1 and 2!
If you have a problem with it, here are some tips:
1. If you are having trouble with the last part of the “tap to complete” puzzle, try starting from both ends and meeting in the middle. You want the top three pieces to be changed last.
2. Once you escape from room 1, don’t delete the app! Go back to the main menu and you will see a new option to select, Room 2.
3. In Room 2, think about the time when you tried to solve the code on the computer screen.
I hope that helps. Have fun escaping!
