Escape Simulator puts you inside themed, first-person escape rooms, where you search for a way out alone or alongside other players online. Its settings include places such as an Egyptian labyrinth, a spaceship, and a mansion.
Examine objects and written clues, move furniture, open containers, and use or combine what you find to solve riddles and mechanisms. Nearly anything that is not fixed in place can be picked up and inspected, and optional hints can help when you get stuck.
Rooms are grouped into themed packs, with additional goals such as finding hidden tokens. A level editor lets players create rooms, while shared community-made rooms provide more puzzles to explore.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy the varied room themes, hands-on object interactions, and puzzles that reward careful observation and clue-solving. Many describe playing with a partner or friends as fun, and community-made rooms are a recurring reason to return. Some reviews find puzzles unclear or uneven, and opinions differ on how well the rooms and co-op support group play.

Interactive Puzzles: Rummage through 28 rooms filled with puzzles designed by real-life escape room operators. If something is not nailed to the wall, you can pick it up.
Online Co-Op: All the rooms are playable in an online co-op. We recommend to play built-in rooms with up to 3 players (but you're welcome to play with more). Community rooms have been tested with up to 10 people. Customize your character and join with friends to work-out puzzles together. More heads are better than one!
Examine Everything: Read through books, examine ancient artifacts and find clues to riddles. Need to cross-reference a clue? No, problem - just pin it to the screen.
Community-Made Rooms: The game includes a room editor with which you can design your own escape rooms and puzzles. Through workshop integration, you get to play awesome things the community has created. Currently, there are more than 4000 community-rooms available!
