The Room

Bought this game and I'm not sure why, curiosity mainly. Had a 5* rating so took the plunge. Fantastic game, I played the whole thing through and was so enjoyable. Yes there are free games out there but this one is so well thought out, looks beautiful and is fantastic immersive. My only wish there was more to it. I finished the whole thing in about 3 to 4 hrs. But 79p on 4 hrs entertainment is pretty good. I have since found parts 2 and three. But all more expensive than the previous......

Id love to give this 4 or 5 stars but although I bought game at first install, when I go to quit it says I can't save a game in "Free play" mode? I own it. WTF? Too tired and battery is low. If this cant be resolved I'll have to use the refund button and I really dont want to... The game and graphics are excellent and Id like a fighting chance to solve it. Help please.

Thoroughly enjoyed this game. Graphics, tasks & puzzles are superb. Only thing was I seemed to have unearthed a bug during one of the chapters. Checked the walkthrough and it wasn't working as it should so I emailed for help and got a reply within hours! Though I started the chapter again as advised it didn't work but an uninstall & reinstall solved it. Finished the game and the epilogue. Great game and great support. On to The Room Two methinks ...

An absolute MUST for puzzle adventurers. Spoiler alert. Do not read further. My Galaxy S6+ does not properly use the gyro feature thus making it impossible for me to solve the Chapter 2 orb puzzle. I am changing my 5 star rating to a 1 star rating until resolved. Thank you.

This is great! It's a puzzle-solving game in the mould of Myst, without all the tedious travelling around between locations, because it's all set within a single room. The puzzles aren't impossible to solve, or even particularly difficult. The enjoyment comes from working methodically through each puzzle to get the clue needed to solve the next one. And there are a lot of puzzles. Excellently well done. There are also hints available along the way, should you get stuck, although most of them state the obvious. Worked well on my Note4. Would be wonderful on a tablet.

I thought, "It's free. Why not?" Silly me. I devoured this free one, then promptly bought the next one... then the next. I have NO regrets. They truly put a tremendous amount of work into these games. I would have given all three five stars but there is an aggregating object manipulation/viewing angles issue, but aside from that these three games are excellent. Great fun, extremely addictive.

Love the atmosphere of this game. The sense of mystery pulling you deeper, the feeling of wonder as you discover the next stage in the puzzle. Touch controls mostly feel intuitive, and the solutions to the puzzles never felt like they were obscure or forced you into pixel hunting. The few occasions I got stuck I found the hint system helped me out without just telling me the solution. Very well put together game.

The epilogue makes this game amazing...the end made my skin crawl, in the best way! The atmospheric sounds are haunting and unnerving. The puzzles are excellent. They have an almost physical feel. And the hints give just enough of a bump in the right direction. This is a quality game, well worth the purchase. It's no wonder it comes up after a search for "Myst." I will be buying the next games from this developer.

I've never seen a more detailed game on mobile, and even console games and pc games of the same genre would be hard pressed to meet the depth of this game's detail, and it's entrancing story line. I truly enjoyed this game, and do not regret spending money on it at all. I don't think I've ever been this satisfied with a mobile app purchase. Try this for less than an hour, and if you aren't sucked in, get your money back. Yet, if you like this genre, I assure you - you won't be disappointed.

I am a huge Myst fan. Played every Myst game including Riven. It's been so hard to find games that are similar. Now we have The Room and even though I'm a little late to the Room party, I finally feel I have a game similar to Myst. It's beautiful. It runs perfectly with no hiccups or issues, and the puzzles are fun to try and solve even though they can be tough. And that's the real thing here: the game is fun. For the price, it's a no brainer and it should be played on a larger tablet. Truly one of the best games I've ever played. I can't wait to play games two and three. Thanks to the developers and keep up the good work.

I've been after a game to satisfy my taste for the mysterious whilst offering genuinely difficult puzzles that test your ability to think outside the box. The Room has an eerie atmosphere carried along by a captivating yet subtle soundtrack. I truly admire this games creator's for their ingenuity and originality. Modestly fulfils my need for the creepy side of entertainment whilst really getting those neurons firing. Round of applause for this one. 105 without effort

I do not review many games, but this one has definitely earned it. It is absolutely beautiful and challenging. It reminds me of puzzles you would find in the game Myst but way more intricate. It has an eerie atmosphere that keeps you engaged and curious. It did seem a little short considering I finished it within a day, however, not having to deal with ads and It being offered at such a low price, made it a worthy buy.

This is without a doubt the best mobile gaming experience to date. The whole trilogy had me encapsulated for hours and days on end. An amazing journey that saddened me with it's inevitable end. I hope for number 4 so much. 5 bucks for all 3 games?? Incredible value for money, would gladly pay triple for this. Massive recommendation to all thrill seekers and mystery solvers out there!

Wonderfully addicting and so pleasant to look at with beautiful graphics. Each game increases in difficulty as the story deepens. Offers hints, but only after the game has given you time to figure out the next step on your own. Each game costs a little more than the last, but only because of the increasing depth and brain power required to make these games as challenging as they are. Well worth it!

I can't believe the graphics! It is so addictive! Who thinks up these things? And I am only on the first book... I don't want to stop until I am done with a chapter. Update: I finished this one and started on the next one The Room 2 but not as intrigued as this first one! But I will keep playing because these developers have amazing minds! This game is tops in my opinion!

This app is different from other puzzle solvers. It offers unique and intuitive puzzles that are different and challenging. The game is never to hard and just needs some thinking to get through. I also think that this game looks superb for a phone game. As a game developer I know the amount of effort that can go into a project like this, and I commend you on a well done work. There aren't enough good games out there as there should be, this is a prime example of what aspiring developers should strive for.

Somewhat like the old 'click the item/find the clue' puzzle games, but way more awesome with sexy 3d graphics and complex (but fun) puzzles. The steampunk-esque mechanical contraptions in the game are so intricate that you are drawn to solve the puzzles just to see what happens next. Combine this with the dark, foreboding storyline and you have one hell of a game!! My only problem is, I have to buy 'the room 2' now to see what happens!! :D

I really enjoyed playing this game on the S7, better than just clicking on items find those boring. Took me a long time to find this app game. Anything that need to think things through are the best. Worth the small investment much better than in app purchases. I completed it in 90 mins off and on using the hint on the game now and then. This is my first review, looking forward to playing the rest of The Room Games hopefully more will be made in the near future.

Too bad you don't get more for the 99cents. It's so much fun to figure all the puzzles out, but I finished the game and epiloge in a few hours and was left wishing for more. And yes I can go buy the next two games,but my point here is, for an amazing game, I wished there was more if it for a paid game. If anything the first one should be free and then start charging for the sequels. Anyways great game and well done to the developer.

I love most point and click puzzle games like this, but this one is stunning and far more brilliant than I anticipated. A lot of time and painstaking detail went into this and it shows. The only note I had an issue with was that I could not mute the music and just hear the sounds of the game, which were equally as amazing as the graphics. Not a big deal and totally worth it. Don't hesitate to buy this game!! Now--I'm off to the sequel :-D

Just brilliant, 5/5 The puzzles are very in-depth, it's amazing how even the tiniest details are connected to each other. Every piece you solve just seems to flow so fluidly from one to the other. The graphics are incredible as well, quite realistic. And the controls are intuitive, very well thought-out. Just a tad bit too short for me, even with the epilogue--I want more!! That's how much I loved it. Good thing there are two more sequels! Hurray!

The sheer detail that went into this game is insane. I rarely buy games, but this has been well worth it. I've only been completely stumped once, and it turns out where I was tapping wasn't quite "right" - no big deal. Either way I could easily spend 30min-1hr a night playing this before bed. Very fun!

This is the most beautiful, fascinating game I've ever played. I finished the whole thing in a couple hours, but every moment was amazing and I was only sad that it was over so soon. Also, I would pay SO MUCH money for actual models of these boxes and devices for my home. Minus the creepy otherwordly voices and things obviously.

The game will transport you into this virtual world of puzzles that its so easy to forget that you are actually playing this on a mobile. The clues may not be the toughest to solve but keeps you hooked until you complete the game. The only short coming that I think of is that the game is too short and didn't last beyond one weekend!Fortunately sequels to the game are already available.

I've waited for a game like this for a long time!! It's amazing, one of the best gaming apps I've ever played. You savour every puzzle you tackle, resist the use of the hint button no matter how hard it gets and relish at the accomplishment of solving it. Even better is the fact that there's a story to it, and I'm definitely getting the Room 2 soon. 10/10 Buy this game, you won't regret it.

If you like interactive brain teaser puzzles then you must try this one. Very well crafted, great graphics and good story line. It's quite hard to put down once you get started. This will keep you on your toes, anticipating the next chapter. Makes you think outside the box. I'm gonna play The Room Two & Three then come back to this one if the next one hasn't been released yet. Good job developers!

I very rarely write reviews but felt compelled to with this game. This is the most intriguing, creative and fun game I have played from an Android device. Like people have said previously, the puzzles are not frustratingly difficult, but can still present a challenge. There is a "clue" feature to help if you're stumped. Graphics are great and the storyline around which the puzzles are created for draws you in. Can't wait to try out the sequel's.

The Room is stacked full of brain teasing puzzles from wall to wall and will have you constantly searching every corner to find out how to solve the next task. The look of the game is very pleasing and is complimented fantastically by a very atmospheric sound track all of which is tied together nicely with an intriguing storyline. The only thing that is stopping me from giving this a full 5 is that I found it to be a little short but in no way should this put you off buying this gem of a game.

I've been playing lots of escape room games, but this one has no contest. Capturing storyline and great graphics. Love the 3D navigation which opens up so many more options, as well as putting you deeper into the game. But most impressive was the intricacy of all the machinery. I can't even imagine the work put into that. Fantastic! I never thought I'd actually purchase a game. Ever. But this was so incredibly worth it. I just finished it and I want to play it again! Can't wait to play Room 2.

Absolutely one of the best puzzle games I've played so far. I've played this before but lost interest as I'm not heavy into puzzles, but I came back to this one and decided to give it another try. I especially love the ambiance while you're going through various puzzles. I hope the next two installments are as good as this because I will be purchasing them

Working through the first levels I feel pleased to have started. It is a charming and creative game. It is best suited for larger screens, darkened rooms, patient players, good processors and those who base gaming success on more than fastest times and points. It's challenging but not frustrating. I do find frequent references and symbols to a particilar mythology disconcerting though.

I was looking for a game that is fair and would not require ridiculous amounts of real life money to even have a slight chance of enjoying the game. I was not big on puzzle games but this one is truly addictive. If anyone enjoyed the puzzles in the Zelda series, this one has it stomped. Be aware though, it is strictly a puzzle game so you will be spending all of your time getting a mind job. I recommend this game along with the room 2 & 3. You'll end up spending a total of 7 dollars for lengthy content.

This game defies description. It is so well thought out, well-conceived, and well-developed. This sounds, and music, and whispering throughout the game really add good bit of mystique throughout. The puzzles themselves are very interesting, and challenging. It helps to have some hints here and there, and it definitely helps in a way that you don't have to find a walk-through. Easily one of the best games I've ever bought.

I am on the epilogue at the moment. I think I'll be buying the sequel. This game kept me entertained for hours! The puzzles presented a moderate challenge which I enjoyed piecing together. I have never been great with riddles, puzzles, brainteasers, etc... However, with some effort and patience I made it through the levels, and without too much frustration at that. Beyond that, this game has a great atmosphere, from the graphics to the music to the story. It both intrigued and unsettled me. A great game!

I had no idea that a game like this, that you can play on your phone, could be this great. I know I'm late to the game here (no pun intended), but this was so good I had to rate it. I rarely rate apps, games or otherwise. This was just the right amount of challenging but not frustrating, was engaging, intriguing, looked great, music set the perfect tone. The app ran perfectly and I had no issues with performance at all. 10/10. I can't wait to go download 2 & 3!!

Up till now it seems to be a good game, well drawn but maybe easy... I don't know... Maybe it's too early to tell exactly if the riddles are good or not... Edit: the game is extremely easy... I didn't use any hint and I finished it fast, in a couple hours... The game is short, 4 chapters and 1 epilogue... Too fast... 4 stars because other escape games aren't too interactive like this one and this is very good...

Beautiful. Truth be told, I could have been a little more challenged, but the visuals and sound effects, as well as the story, just make you want to move forward no matter what. Well, well worth it. I'm playing part two now and it already feels like a step up if that could be possible in this genre. Enjoy!

I loved this game. It kept my attention until the very end. The music was hair raising, especially late at night with the lights turned out. The touch controls weren't hindered by the fact that my screen is cracked. A wonderful story line, but its almost overshadowed by the complexity of the puzzles. Almost. It's a must play.

Worth every penny! Can't stand people who complain that they only got a couple of hours game play out of this. It's 79p! You spend £3 on coffee and drink it in 10 minutes, think about all the effort that goes into making a game and realise that spending less than £1 on this really isn't going to ruin your life. Enjoy the game, it's fantastic!

Probably the best puzzle game I've played. the over all concept/storyline is great and graphics are flawless. My only complaint is I finished the game (and the epilogue) in less then an hour of total game play. Even though it's short there are lots of puzzles and they're enjoyable. I would say its worth the download.
