Cube Escape: Paradox

Detective Dale Vandermeer wakes with no memory in an ominous room, caught in a strange game orchestrated by an old foe. To escape, he must make sense of the room and recover pieces of his past.

Explore the room in a point-and-click view, inspect objects for clues, combine items, and solve puzzles that unlock new interactions. The puzzles are tied to the mystery and Dale’s memories.

The game unfolds across two chapters, with puzzles that grow more involved and multiple possible endings. An accompanying short film connects to the game, adding another place to find clues.

Players repeatedly enjoy the room-based puzzles, especially when solving them reveals pieces of the mystery, and praise the game’s unsettling atmosphere and distinctive presentation. The short film’s connections to the game are also a recurring highlight. Some players find certain puzzles cryptic or the story difficult to follow without familiarity with the wider series.
