2024-10-18 | Iris Salls | Coming back to this game again in my 2nd replay of the rusty lake and cube escape series. Not enough can be said about this game. What an experience. I will say if you're new to the series, start with the first published rusty lake game (cube escape:seasons) and work your way chronologically through. It's so worth it for the payoff, every new game is a revelation. | |
2022-11-14 | C J Whitney | I have really enjoyed playing the Rustic Lake / Cube games. This game was the one I started with, now I'm hooked. I do read comments of past players and noticed 2 puzzles that players think are glitches, they aren't. The 1st is the phone; ask any person born on the 50's/60's to show you how to use it! I'm old, was fine with it. The 2nd is the water tank, it works but is VERY HARD to get the order correct. I had to use YT to pass that one. Enjoy! | |
2022-11-03 | J.Kalin Tyler | Old school gamer here. Terrific game. Very different puzzles that were extremely creative. Storyline is full of what what. Would have paid more. Only issues: needs a gentle hint system, not a walkthrough. Had to get the wife to watch it and nudge me to avoid spoilers. I don't know what I'm looking at when it comes to the achievements page. Did I achieve it? How do I achieve it? None of this is clear. Deserves a better title than "Cube Escape". Thought it was just a lame escape room game. Nope. | |
2021-08-14 | Olivia HW | Wow! What an ingenuous game! I had so much fun playing it. It wasn't easy, but it was not insanely difficult either. I did have to cheat three times and look up a walkthrough. Once because I was just being lazy and twice because I wasn't quite hitting the object on the screen right. It's so nice that they are offering the first chapter free with NO ADS. And I did not have a single glitch with the game. It might not be no grand theft auto, but it's for damn sure better than candy crush saga. | |
2021-01-26 | Trent G. | YYOOOO!!!!! Easily best mobile game I've ever played. Stumbled across it just browsing and got sucked into it instantly. I've done puzzle rooms in Reno and it's the same thing. VERY VERY WELL DONE! the movie at the end just blew me away. Extremely creative and perfectly executed. I would give more stars if they had more. I plan on downloading every single one and playing. Good job @rustylake. Perfection. | |
2020-11-11 | Nathan Hammond | This game is tough! But it's not impossible. I was able to finish without walkthroughs but it took me a few days. The puzzles are well designed and require considerable mental effort. I've never felt so accomplished to complete a game. Also I wish people would stop giving fewer stars simply because chapter 2 cost the price of a candy bar. Give me a break! Chapter 1 is an entire game free and without ads. Heaven forbid the makers of the game try to get a little compensation for their efforts. | |
2020-09-08 | Jeanette Cravens | Super fun but when you get to the escape the mind part in chapter one just LOOK UP THE ORDER. If you do things in the wrong order you can't redo or back out so you have to restart the chapter (and it's not in the beginning). I'm trying to convince myself to restart it because I hit the wrong button first. Seems like a glitch a lot of people have dealt with. | |
2020-06-25 | Hannah Giambrone | Absolutely amazing game! The puzzles are just the right difficulty: not so hard that you give up and look for a walkthrough, but not so easy that you complete the game too swiftly. Also, the puzzles make sense!! A lot of games come out where the puzzles are almost an afterthought and don't make any sense, not on Cube Escape! Kudos | |
2020-05-26 | a b (inersphobia) | The Rusty Lake games are the best immersive puzzle games I know of. They do so many things very well. The soundtrack. Because they use dream logic, they allow for a broad variety of solutions. But for they puzzles they also use normal logic, so they rarely seem cheap. In Paradox, I had to stumble on the solution a couple of times (the clock) because I didn't understand the reasoning behind it. The Paradox game is the most like Twin Peaks. You are Dale, investigating the murder of Laura. | |
2020-05-03 | Tara Wilder | This game is SO good! They put so much thought into the story and the visual design. It's creepy and clever. The puzzles are not very hard and they're not very easy either which is fun. Some of the puzzles were pretty unique. It's a weird game and I love it! Another thing I really like is that there were barely any ads. A lot of escape room games have VERY intrusive ads. I am buying another one of their games just to support them. |
