Have you escaped the Crimson Room? Try it.

What other "escape room" games do you recommend? Just to pass time.
Well, the obvious one is MOTAS.

But if you have a 3DS you should check out 999 and VLR. They aren't purely Escape the Room, there's a lot of story in them too. But they are both absolutely fantastic.

I don't have 3DS but thanks for the suggestions. That's exactly what I was going for: games with well-thought-of stories.

I'm looking for some flash or PC games. I'd rather flash, though, since installing can be time-consuming.

Just played 15 min of MOTAS. Never knew about it before. Thanks!

Many thanks and +1 for your help. I'm downloading the game "Advent Rising" right now and I could sure use sites like this. I appreciate it.
aand done. really hate it when it randomly changes the view while clicking around though.
Only the best one ever! The Dark Room is fantastic. :D
I have Crimson Room Reverse from the PSN for my PSP and it is really, really bad.. Defintiely not designed for the PSP, I guess..

But to contribute to your thread, the DS game 999 Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors is all about Escape the Room, within a text adventure game.. I have yet to play it from my damn backlog, but only read the best about it!

Virtue's Last Reward (3DS & Vita) may be the same kind, being the sequel to 999, can't tell as I have it but not yet played too.. :o

I wonder if there's an escape room game wherein you have a time limit, certain limitations and a really good story. Any game perspective... Real physics interaction... Stuff like that.

Does Hotel 626 count? I'm not sure if it's still available.

Highly recommended Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors, owned a DS and played that one. Good story IMO, some twist here and there. Also might want to try DS games Theresia - Dear Emile games, it's quite good also.
Crimson Room... hah, feels like 2000 and something all over again. I also remember playing some of his other games, though they were pretty crappy compared to Crimson and Viridian.

There's also the Blue Room, I remember.

Some of them are outright creepy and maybe that's why people are interested in them. If you really think about it, being trapped and all... it can be scary. I'll go for the games, instead. It's a lot safer that way. Ha ha.

The downside of this genre, however, is that it's over when people reveal spoilers. I hope there would surface a game that's randomly generating rooms. I don't know if that's possible, though.
