The music adds A LOT to this.
I played this about a year ago, but never finished it. Just wasn't enjoying it enough to continue. Thought I would give it another shot, but ... sorry, nope.
While the artwork is really cool, it just too much of a big random pixel hunt to me. Each room is sort of like playing a game of Where's Waldo ... if you have no clue what Waldo looks like.
To me at least, that isn't fun.
It seems i am missing one item
the item that goes in the triangle slot
I also have the
three button remote control (I think I have the code for it already)
unused. Where should I be looking?
Got it. Nevermind.
I broke out of
Superjail
!
Except with less gore. I over-thought one of the early puzzles; otherwise smooth sailing. I did want to linger, though. The art is just fantastic. Love it! It is much like Submachine, in that the madness is internally consistent. Any red herrings are just part of the mise-en-sc�ne. Then again... I like art that forces you to look at it.

Go back out to the end of the corridor, then click the open doorway on the left to reach the Fluid Pipes Hallway. From there, walk forward into the pink Fluid Tank Room.
Fluid Tank Room
-
Pick up the VALVE on the floor leaning against the lower left pipes.

-
Move forward into Room 47.
Room 47
-
Remember the symbols on the board in room 432? A circle, triangle, and diamond eahc pointed to an item - a heart, a brain, and a battery, respectively - and it just so happens you have all three of those items in your inventory!.

-
Push the flashing middle button at the top of the panel to submit your solution.
Pretty wild. I had it all but the last little bit. Thanks Trinn
Neat game. Soon after it started I agreed with Dora on it being difficult to find relevant objects. But in the end I didn't have trouble finding anything, the puzzles took some thinking but nothing frustrating. Surprisingly good.
As Andrew said, the music by Oliv Kronsilds really is fantastic in this (and I usually don't care much about music in point-and-click games). There were rooms that I didn't want to leave, just so I could groove on the music loop a bit longer, and the way the sound layers build makes it all pretty much WHOA by the end. I may actually need to play again with headphones.
Art was great also, and I didn't have as much trouble as I expected finding the items and clues I needed. Could stand to be a bit longer, but this is really top-notch.
A plumber's nightmare... and an electrician's as well...
Out of the cuckoo's nest anyways !
Paris : storm
The art is just wonderful. Usually I hate pixel-hunting, and I did have to use the walkthrough because I couldn't find one item,
the bug spray
, but this is a case where I didn't mind a bit.
Pixel hunting at its worst.
You literally have no clue what you can interact with.
I hate this kind of games, even when, like in this case, the art is really wonderful.
Press tab to highlight clickable objects.
I'm not sure I'd even count this as pixel hunting - just that there are a lot of things that could be clicked on. Loved this!
my first escape game I solved with little help. at the end I thought I screwed something up but I ended up winning.
Holy cow, I completed the game with zero help, in spite of the total lack of changing cursor and myriad things that could be clickable but aren't.
There was a bit of a red herring, though:
After inputting the 4-digit code and getting the color code for the remote, there's also a 4-dial readout that I made a note of. Toward the end of the game, there are 4 dials that I thought I would have to set, but apparently not.
I hate pixel-hunting, but I did not find that to be an issue once I got the gist of what was needed to complete the game. The music and art are fantastic, just like the last game of this creator that was featured on this site (the one with exploring ancient ruins for loot!). I hope there are more games to come!
Whoa! That rocked!! I haven't played an escape game that fun in a really long time.
I love that the designers humbly included a "music off" button ... but I can't imagine playing this without the soundtrack. I love how it varies in different rooms and builds to a gleeful climax.
The animation was terrific too! A perfect pairing.
BTW, I'd much rather pixel-hunt than do a bunch of insane math problems. Escape games used to be about finding and using everyday objects, with a *single* password thrown in ... adding math just ruins the fun for me.
Awesome artwork, awesome music!
To me, pixel hunting is when you have to click on a random spot on a large blank surface, with no indication that there would be anything there at all.
I don't really consider it to be pixel hunting when the graphics are so rich that you actually want to click on everything. There are so many little details in this game that I wanted to examine everything thouroughly, anyways!
This has one of the BEST ENDINGS I have ever seen for an ESCAPE game!
I think ALL of Jo99's games are INCREDIBLE.
However, one thing confuses me about the negative reviews I see sprinkled down the screen: WHY are so many people complaining that they have to CLICK when they have made a conscious decision to sit down in front of their computer and play a POINT AND CLICK game? LoL!
It is almost humorous seeing so many players belly-ache about the possibility of getting a click-finger-cramp.
NOTE TO CLICK-O-PHOBES: Just as Slothrop mentioned above, if you get stuck and are tired of exploring the old fashioned way, you can
click TAB repeatedly to highlight each clickable area.
I personally consider this cheating and I think that it takes all the fun out of exploring Jo99's alien landscapes...
