yay, 7:38! i'm looking forward to the rest of the series! i really liked doing this game online, since i know that there's no way a big kid like me can easily squeeze my body around in a small car. (trust me, i have a hard enough time getting into cars as is...)
one thing that also catches my attention about this game is the fact that you're escaping a car... because, how many escape-the-ROOM games have we done? a car's a nice spin on the genre, and i'm looking forward to what's coming next... maybe a greenhouse? phone booth? sousaphone case?
Played this last night when it was first posted, but failed to comment. My first game time was 7:56 to fully complete. My second time was 1:07 only because a misclick or 2 was it not under a minute. Note that that time also includeds grabbing the wiring guide even though i knew the wires, but then that way its a legit win.
YES!!!
I got under a minute for my time! I got only 0:57! here's a screen shot for proof:
i played the game once. ive got the flashlights combined with batteries. screw driver. electrical tape. and the key to the compartment. ive wired all the wires under the steering wheel and nothing seems to happen. ive been playing this game for an hour and nothing seems to work. i dont know what to do and the sound of the clock is creeping me out. so i finally gave up and close the window for the game. but... this is where it gets scary... the clock is still clicking.... my body begins to chill as i figure how to stop the ticking of the clock. ive try the task manager but nothing seems to stop the ticking of the clock. until i unpluged the computer and never played the game again...
OH YEAH!!! 00:00:46 that has to be a record lol
proof is at: http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p220/chadbichard/TIMECARGAME.jpg
for all you people having trouble loading the game, i found it at http://www.addictinggames.com/escapethecar.html
I escaped in 1:19 no help. I seriously can believe it. But i will give the walkthrough for the game since it isn't posted anywhere else.

ok so for everyone who is stuck on the thing about getting the key to work in the ignition and you try to put the key in but it says 'nothing happened' listen up! i got stuck on this too and believe me it was not fun but i managed to figure it out. so this is what you do:
TAPE THE RED, BLUE, GREY, AND GREEN WIRES TOGETHER BUT MAKE SURE YOU CONNECT AND TAPE THE BLUE WIRE BEFORE CONNECTING AND TAPING THE GREY WIRE BECAUSE THE BLUE AND GREY WIRES OVERLAP. :) yep yep
First you go to the back and get the screw driver. Then you click on the floor, then on the right hand rug and get the key. you then go to the white box in the middle of the seats and get the golden key from the cigarrete thingy.
then go to the front of the car again and click on the white box in between the front two seats and get the flashlight.
you then go onto the glovebox, and open it with the golden key. Then take the batteries and tape fro it.
Then go to the steering wheel. Use the screwdriver to undo the metal plate underneath the steering wheel. Once you have undone it you will see various coloured wires. Connect the green, grey, red and blue wires. You can connect wires simply by clicking on them. After you have connected them, use the tape to seal up the gaps.
After you have done that, go to the back seats and use the knife to cut through the tabs connecting the middle seat to the outer seats. Then click on the middle seat and it should come out a bit. Then click on the shadow of the seat and then you will be at a "code bit". The code is E40, and you can work this out by looking at the speedometer which shows an E circled with blood and the mph is 40.
you will then be in the trunk.
Drag the batteries on to the torch (combine them) and then use the torch to light up the trunk. Then use the knife to smash the red shape on the left. A key will fall out. Collect that key.
Then go to the front and click on the instrument panel. The ignition is on the right below the speedometer. Put the key you have just found in there.
Then click beneath the steering wheel and there wil be a yellow 'trunk' button. Click this button to release the trunk. Then go back to the trunk, click on the little white key hole, AND YOU ARE A FREE MAN! or woman!
okay... i got it... people that are getting stuck on the ignition part. you dont conect the pink white and yellow wires... then click on the trunk button then go to the back of the car then get into the trunk and click the little lock thing on it and BAM your out... i sucked at this game... took like 17 min... fun neways
Did it in 2:03!
If the key isn't working to turn the car on, you havent looked at the roof yet.
Go to the back of the car and click on the ceilling or the farthest you can get to the top of the screen.
You will see a spot that buldgin out. Cut it out with your knife. It will tell you that you only need to connect and tape the blue, red, grey and yellow I think. After that your key should work.
Once you have got power look at the front of the car. Yo will se a yellow button at the bottom left of the steering wheel. Press the button and go out the trunk
