Player Comments on Escape! #1 The Office

Solid game, but very much a beginner-level attempt.

Not too bad for a start...

Wow! An uninteresting game. Thanks for the free point :D

There were about six pages, and each one had about five words on it.

super easy. no description of anything, no story or plot of any kind. Seemed like it was just a test for the items system

You said it was gonna be easy, so I don't blame you for how easy this thing is.
See, if you are making a game, make it hard, make it fun.
The whole game is obvious.
The game was nice, so if you actually put your mind to it, I'm sure the game will be really good.
This looks like something you made in half an hour and didn't actually try on.

My 2nd problem was how you didn't describe the office. Describe stuff!!!! Make it feel like you are actually there!

Your language was quite witty, and nice so you can write a good game.
Its just that this felt kinda empty.

Hurray! It was fun, but pretty easy. I'm excited for your next one!

This sucked. Should not even be classed as a Mystery/Puzzle game... :/

Not sure what the cabinet key was doing in a vending machine, but what the hell? :p

Umm, i don't mean to be to mean but, it wasn't very hard. anyone could have done it. whatever you do you end up escaping the office

Very straight forward. It would be better if there were more places to look and more items to get. Once you find the first item, the rest is easier than a piece of cake. It just led you right to the end. If it were in a whole office building, you could make a better situation of this, including multiple rooms. One room is easy to make a very easy game.

It was fun, but it was too easy.

It was a bit short, and a bit too easy. But at least it's not one of those impossible games.

Well unless you accedentally don't pick up the cabinet key like I did. Then it's impossible to get it back...

Meh. Too easy. It had potential though. Here's a tip. Everyone likes harder games than the easy ones.

A little predictable... Maybe fill it with detail so there's an interesting story to accompany the simple puzzles.

good job. but maybe make it a bit more complicated next time.

why is everything a sack?

Yeah... This was BAD. FeanorOnForge and Will11, thanks for the tips and feedback.

It was fun, although I completed it in about 30 seconds.

Pretty nice, simple challenge. Can't wait to see what the next one would be like. :-)

For a first time game, and one using the advanced editor, this was not bad. Yes it was very short and easy however if you use it as the simply intro story to a series of progressively harder puzzles, then it will fit.

One thing to watch is that you can break this game if you use and item but click the next link without taking the item, this leaves you stuck in an un-winnable loop.

For the next game, try adding in a little more descriptive writing, make it longer and make it harder.

I very much look forward to the next one as I really enjoy games of this type.

way to short there 4 pages and its pretty straight forward make it a lot harder not and not a "smidge"

Pretty good.

4/8

Uh, it's one of those games that just... Well, maybe you should make it a bit more harder?

Insultingly simple.

Hmm, that was just 6 pages that had items in. You need to use longer descriptions than "the cabinet is locked" and it seemed kinda uninteresting. A story (how did we get in the office if the door is locked?), descriptions and more challenges are needed. Trying to escape MI5 after stealing valuable government documents to sell to foreign terrorists might be a bit more exciting for the next game :)

I liked it, but the only reason I rated it low was because it was short.

It was good, the fact that all three were connected somehow. Great!

Let me answer some complaints.
1. I can't get a picture on here. My tablet won't let me, so i'm stuck with the brown bag.
2. Okay, so this was really easy. I'll make the second one a lot more complicated.

It would have been better if it were longer. I enjoy these type of stories so if you were to make it longer, I would have gave it a higher rate. :P

Too easy, and too short. Why is the dollar and two keys in the form of a brown bag?. Much work is needed on this. Make it longer, give the items the look of the actual item it says it is, and use harder puzzles.

I didn't enjoy this. The puzzle itself was insanely easy, to the point where it didn't even seem like an escape - just someone whom misplaced the key. I would suggest you make this harder and put more effort into it. It seems to me like you just wanted to test the advanced editor, and put this together in slapdash fashion and published it just because.

Coupled with this, the writing was terrible, simply put. It was dull and kind of boring; I would suggest you add more words to the page, and be more descriptive. Instead of saying "you go over here" actually describe to the reader what "here" is.

I'm not sure why this was published. 1/8.

Very good game! I was wondering whether you can make a game where you escape a hospital.
