I used to be very keen on Escape Academy again once I reviewed it. It was brief and a lot of the puzzles have been fairly doable for somebody like me who’s horrible at puzzles. When it was introduced that the sport was getting an enlargement, I used to be all for it. Escape from Anti-Escape Island provides 5 new rooms to flee from, which is over a 3rd of the 13 included with the bottom recreation. From what I can collect, those within the DLC are harder than the others, so this DLC seems to be to be stuffed with extra high quality escapes.
Escape from Anti-escape Island begins with the participant character, the headmaster, Jeb, and Gwen jetting off to an island trip as a reward for saving the varsity on the finish of the bottom recreation. However their airplane is shot down, solely to land on a mysterious island with its personal escape rooms. There are extra of the sport’s character interactions right here, that are nonetheless charming sufficient. However not the whole lot is an escape room this time. The second stage, as an example, has no timer and simply allows you to take your time whereas making an attempt to make contact with characters of whom the participant character misplaced monitor.
I’d love to enter extra element, however the reality is I solely acquired to do two of the 5 included ranges. I acquired caught now and again in Escape Academy, however the recreation’s trace system all the time gave sufficient information that I used to be capable of get by means of. The ultimate puzzle in stage two, nevertheless, has me totally stumped. I fairly merely don’t know what it requires of me or what it means. To place it bluntly, Escape from Anti-escape Island actually cranks the issue up. I’ve been wracking my mind to attempt to remedy this puzzle however it seems past me.

This one has a 25-minute time restrict and I actually made it with a single second to spare, which actually had my coronary heart pounding. The standard of the areas and puzzles that I noticed have been utterly in-line with these of the bottom recreation. The second stage takes place at a juice bar the place it’s important to discover keys to get contained in the supervisor’s workplace, which is the place I discovered the puzzle that stumped me.
