Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking open-ended exploration may find the 30-minute room structure restrictive.
- Those looking for combat, character progression, or extended campaigns may find the puzzle-focused format limited.
- Players who prefer a single continuous setting may not enjoy moving between three separate scenarios.
Our take on Escape Room VR: Stories
The 30-minute limit gives each room a focused structure, but it also leaves less time for experimentation when puzzles or hidden secrets require repeated investigation. The three-ending design adds variation without changing the short, fixed format of each scenario.
What is Escape Room VR: Stories?
Escape Room VR: Stories places players in three distinct escape-room locations filled with interactive objects, puzzles, and riddles.
Each room imposes a 30-minute limit and presents a separate plot that contributes to one connected crime story. Players control two characters across difficult situations, investigating secrets and solving challenges that require logic, wit, and occasional dexterity. The number of secrets uncovered affects the outcome, with three possible endings available in every location. Graphic-novel cutscenes deliver the narrative between gameplay sections. The scenarios include financial crimes in Dirty Money and a fraternity-related ordeal in Mad Kidnapper, with the rooms combining puzzle-solving and mystery investigation.
