Escape Games
Escape games are puzzle adventures where you’re trapped somewhere and need to find a way out. Look for clues to figure out how to open locked doors and use what you find to clear the path to the exit. In faster escapes, someone may be after you, so staying hidden or moving quickly can be just as important as solving the puzzle.
