Our take on Escape First 2
The page gives equal attention to multiplayer and virtual reality, but the game also supports solo desktop play with a keyboard, mouse, or gamepad. That option is present but receives less emphasis than the group and VR modes.
What is Escape First 2?
Escape First 2 is an escape-room puzzle game with 3 rooms and solo, cooperative, and versus modes.
In cooperative play, up to 6 people work together to solve puzzles. In versus mode, each player is locked alone and races the others to escape first. The rooms are set in a circus, a medieval dungeon, and a room without doors or windows inside an escape-room factory. The game supports desktop play with a keyboard and mouse or gamepad. Virtual reality play uses motion controllers and supports room-scale or standing tracking with HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. Escape First 2 is the second installment in the Escape First series.
