444 escape rooms
An excellent online escape game experience! There's a good story (although logically, some of the story beats seem odd) and a great set of puzzles surrounding it. Unlike other virtual games I've played, this one felt like an actual location. In other words, I felt like I was walking around a real mansion and not just a "virtual escape room" approximation of a mansion. I’m also a huge fan of point-and-click adventure games, and this was very much one. The puzzles are a bit math-heavy, which I liked, though others might not. It's also linear and is a bit on the easy side because there isn't a whole lot to actually interact with or observe. Also, I wasn't a fan of the final challenge, but I liked the effects and how the story concluded. The cinematics are very top-notch professional, and the scares are real! Best part is that you can play this online or just huddled around one screen. My group of 4 played this on a computer hooked up to a television and it worked out well! We played with friends who had not done in-person escape rooms but enjoyed puzzles and puzzle video games, and we all had a blast!
