I’m a sucker for death game stories and this one seems very promising so far! Although I was expecting it, the stomach drop at the end when you find out the stakes are higher than anyone thought was really cool. I’d say Massimo, Ashley & Ashleigh (loved the FD3 reference), Sabrina and Cherry were my favorite characters so far!
One small nitpick I had is that the rehab center puzzle seems impossible to solve without previous knowledge of the hospital emergency color system (e.g. orange = hazardous spill, etc.) I feel like an escape room should have that sort of information within the room itself, and I would’ve preferred the alarm codes be listed in a note/book/clue somewhere so the characters could find the solution themselves rather than needing Richard to know that specific, vital piece of info.
Wow, I must say - your comment really made my day, thank you! I'm glad that someone who enjoys death game stories liked our game, it means a lot. Massimo seems to be fan favorite, so we must keep that in mind, haha. + I'm happy that someone liked my random horror movie reference, now I can force my friends to throw in more stuff like that! But yeah, there is a lot of things we need to improve before the future release and we're hoping to fix all the issues people had, so thank you for your input! The ending sequence throws a lot of things on the player and they don't really have the time to think about the puzzle. I have a few ideas on how to fix it, so let's hope we'll work something out! Thank you so much for playing our game and we hope you'll like the future release of our project!
It's true, the beginning is a bit slow and we're keeping all the feedback in mind, it's one of the parts we want to rework a bit in the future. But nonetheless, it's great to hear that we managed to grab your attention!
The characters are a big part of our story, so it means a lot to us that people like them (so far people really like the dynamic between our MC and "Massimo" which is great news for us lol).
Thank you so much for all the compliments, they truly mean a lot to our team and we hope not to disappoint you with the future updates!
It starts a bit slow, but when it picks up, it really hooks you in. I Really enjoyed the distinct personalities of each character and how they clash with each other. The MC gave off an annoying impression at first (which i believe is intentional as he's a professor) but quickly grew on me when he started engaging in banter with "Massimo". Their dynamic is great.
The game is highly polished, the VN backgrounds are really atmospheric and the in-game locations set the scene perfectly. The soundtrack bops and is appropriate to the scenes. There may have been a few minor bugs, but nothing gamebreaking.
Overally the vibe is great, the mystery intriguing and the gameplay engaging. I had tons of fun and i'm looking forward to playing the finished game!

Otherwise I’m excited to play more!

I enjoyed the demo!
As the previous commenter mentioned, the game definitely starts off slow, but once it picks up, it held my attention.
Love the character dynamics, especially with "Massimo," once everyone groups up into teams.
The puzzles were fun, the "meta mystery" has me intrigued, and I'm curious to see what lies inside that location.
Nice job to everyone who worked on this!
Also, holy verbose MC batman lol.
I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

This is a certified banger.
