Playing A Game Escape the Game PC

Escape the Game's fourth-wall-breaking self-awareness isn't great, but not as bad as some others I've played. And the gameplay is rote at first, but quickly adds a grappling-hook power that makes the game feel fast, and interesting.

And then it's over. In ten minutes.

This free game is over two years old, and I guess it was supposed to serve as a demo for a fuller release? But the "Episode 1" DLC still has a release date of "2017 Q1" -- and the creator seems to have abandoned this idea in favor of an ARG that will lead up to a sequel... maybe.

Well, good luck with all that!
