Escape House
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Story
You have been recruited by a secret organisation to solve mysteries all around the globe. Adventure awaits! However, before they can trust you with actual field missions, you'll have to prove your worth. This is why you ended up in Testing Chamber A115, a.k.a The Escape House. You'll have to figure your way out with your sanity intact in order to be accepted as a member of the team. Good luck!
Gameplay
Escape House features a mixture of puzzle solving and classic adventure game mechanics all wrapped up in an escape room style environment. You'll have to combine the clues from your limited surroundings to get ahead and beat the game.
As with a regular escape room, the expected play time is around 60 minutes. This varies between 30 and 120 minutes based on your familiarity with puzzles. However there's no clock stopping you, so take your time and don't feel pressured.
If you do get stuck, there are multiple hints available for each puzzle in the pause menu. So don't get frustrated when you can't seem to figure out a particular detail.
I hope you enjoy it and if you have any feedback for me, if you've found a bug or a glitch, feel free to leave a comment!

Minor issue: after the last puzzle is solved the game doesn't allow the final door to open or trigger an immediate return to the main menu.
I cant for the life of me figure out the second room of puzzles, and the hints are not helping. Then again, I can't math if my life depended on it XD can someone please help!?
I don't want to put up any spoilers in the public comment sections. Is there a way I can contact you privately about this? I'd love to help you out ;)
Thank you for your reply!! Please help me lol. Whats the easiest method of contact for you?
Through Discord is probably the easiest. You can find me at WittyAdrian#9734 if you add me as a friend, I can give you some help :)
added you :) Thank you!!
I just downloaded the game and am also stuck at the sheep and teapot puzzle. If u could also give me some help as the hints are also not helping me at all. -_- I also just added u on discord under HarleyQuinn420#4004. Plz help!!
Great game! I really liked this game even though I got proper stuck at one point. The art style and ominous thunder created a great atmosphere and I wasn't sure whether to feel scared or not. Would love to see an end screen or maybe a cut scene in the end as a reward for the hard work. Overall a very fun and enjoyable game :D
I don't know if you've heard of Game Development World Championship before (gdwc2019) but it's a competition for indie game developers where they can submit their games and it's free! It's great if you want some more visibility for the game and it only takes a couple of minutes to join :)
Haha I did try to make a little bit of a creepy atmosphere. Glad that turned out to work :D. I never got around to making a proper ending. Maybe I will patch that in at a later date.
I hadn't heard about GDWC before, but it sounds awesome! I'm not sure if my game is up to the quality of some of the others that are on there. But can't hurt to join the party. I'll make a submission!
That sounds awesome! :D
If you have completed the game, could you help me out? I cant get past the room with the teacup and sheep puzzle
The game made me feel smart and that is all I wanted o/
