Played this immediately after the "Deep Sleep Trilogy" and was slightly less enamoured with the premise. Decent enough puzzles but the ability to do something wrong without knowing you'd made a mistake until the end of the game leaves a somewhat bitter taste. The first game of the trilogy is short enough that having to replay it is no big deal but later entries have plenty of useless items/tasks that mainly serve to confuse the player or cause a "Bad Ending" state.
Charming little point and click games. The core twist (that rather than a locked room you’re trying lock other things out of your room) works great for the first in the trilogy, and then continues to pay dividends for future installments. Don’t Escape 2 and 3 offer “escape” as an option, but hammers home an idea that this is a selfish idea when it often involves screwing over others. Just a solid hour or two of puzzles! Gotta love it!
The Don't Escape Trilogy is alright. The games have no seeming connection with each other, which bummed me out, but besides that the games are good and replayable.
Mostly really nice, but held back by the strategic elements. Replaying sections isn't very fun.
