Reviews for "I Can't Escape"
WELL! Guess I'm trapped in the darkness forever which is cool- me and the ghost are getting along just fine high-fiving each other and shit! Wish I brought a Ouija board to communicate with him!!
Honestly, I gave up and just found holes to fall into. I was wondering if some demon was gonna chase after me or something. And hey- I SWEAR I picked up like 50 keys that seem to open every gate I come across but when I get trapped behind those 4 gates all the sudden none of my keys work?? Better ending please! Go with my demon idea. OH WAIT! What if following the ghost (like I did) actually helped you out?? Oh man, and then you win the ghost's favor and he rewards you for not judging him by his scary appearance? And the eyes on the walls were the remains of his family- and like the place used to be a castle???? THAT GHOST'S CASTLE!! and you were there investigating it's rumored history legend and then you got lost (BECAUSE OF THE GHOST)!!!!!! and he was leading you to the real story of his family's death- IT'S A CURSE! PUT ON BY A GHOST-DEMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TWISTER
I question whether this was a game or a clever interactive metaphor for having depression. It was really good to begin with for what it is, I still like it, but as far as I can tell there is no real solution which kind of makes the entire game a waste of time considering all you do it walk around. Good game if you just want something simple with a creepy atmosphere, not a good game if you are capable of experiencing frustration or like solving puzzles. Because while it appears to be a puzzle, with the amount of time I spent playing this, no...apparently not gonna happen.
Well, such varying reviews.
I found it quite enjoyable. Unfortunately, that's all I have to say about it, so, yeah.
The controls were alittle to weird and unresponsive. It would be better if you had to hold the key to move in the direction you want on pc, instead of having those function like the touchscreen commands. It made moving around to tedious. Trying to stop and turn to hit a door was just unreasonably painful. Good idea for a game though
