Welcome to Mobile Monday!
This is the first Mobile Monday in 2022 and we start the year with three excellent games. No need to introduce the developers - it's Nicolet, Room's Room (Daichi Simada) and Goro Sato, and all three games are are awesome. The puzzles in the games are creative and perfectly balanced - not silly, not overstretched and you always get sufficient clues to them. All three are a pleasure to play!
All games are free and available in Google Play and in Apple Store.
All games are medium-sized.
Persimmon
Lovely Nicolet's game is all about hunt for a persimmon in a beautiful autumn landscape where everything is cute and colorful and so interesting that even if you need to bactrack or feel stuck for a while, and wandering around to find a clue it's not boring. There is still something to look at. Puzzles are perfect, the execution is perfect, and overall it's another proof that Nicolet's games are outstanding and unique in all aspects.

Escape Game Happy New Year 2022
What do we have here? A traditional Japanese room, a yard at night behind a locked door, many quality puzzles (but one puzzle with Japanese signs - not a language barrier!), a magical atmosphere, a soothing soundtrack - all boxes checked, yes it's the newest escape by Room's Room (Daichi Simada)! Enjoy!

Escape Game: Fountain
A hall where you find yourself in Goro Sato's escape is huge, strange and with elevators. Around the hall are scattered lovely small fountains and each is a piece of art - it's a fun to watch them not because of a hint they provide but because of their beauty. This game is a bit simplier than others from the same developer but that doesn't mean that they are silly - they are creative, original and clever.

These are such lovely games. Unfortunately, I only have a PC, no tablet. Does anyone think that these might be made available for PC? Nicolet hasn't moved any games to PC in a long time.
I don't have a tablet neither I play them on a smartphone. Nicolet may eventually make their games available for pc, they did few times but it is sadly less and less frequent. Room's Room did not transfer their games to pc for a long time - let's hope they change their mind. Goro Sato's games were never available for pc, they create exclusively for mobile devices and it's a pity, their games are really good.
For what it's worth, there are Android emulators for PC. Android itself offers an emulator, but it isn't very full-featured, and from what I recall, it can only be installed as part of the Android Studio developer package. (That's an awful lot to install just to play an escape game.)
There's also Bluestacks, which I've used before. It works pretty well, but similar to Android's own emulator, you'll need a pretty fast computer due to the additional overhead of the emulation layer. It can probably satisfy you if you're desperate to play something only on Android, but to me, it just isn't worth the headache—I prefer my escape games on PC. It's a "freemium" product, so you might have to pay to use certain features.
