Welcome to Mobile Monday!
The first comes an adventure escape from a pyramid by playPLANT (LIBERTY PLANT Inc.) and it's an exciting one - the pyramid collapses immediately after you leave it! Luckily, you don't know that and can explore the tombs and secret rooms without stress. If you're patient enough, you can take with you a big treasure. Then we have two similar escapes - by shou harata and Scaebako Productions (Mai Ukita). Both are standard escapes without complicated puzzles, with simple graphics and relatively short. Perfect relax.
All games are free and available in Google Play and in Apple Store.
The first game is medium-sized, the second and the third one are on a shorter side.
escape game: Treasure
In playPLANT's (LIBERTY PLANT Inc.) game you're a treasure hunter. After you broke into a pyramid you touched something you shouldn't, and in a second things went wrong - now you need to escape the tomb deep under the pyramid. If you manage to get a treasure and escape with it, the better it is for you!

Shou harata's app was published in MM N°322 already but contained only two games then - now the devs added the third game. It's a simple escape from standard office and its adjoining rooms, and doesn't require much from you - the puzzles aren't cunning or overcomplicated, they are relaxing.

Forest House
From Scaebako Productions (Mai Ukita) we've got a nice standard escape - with straightforward puzzles and clear graphics, and not too long. You can't get lost in it and if you need to interrupt playing, you easily get back into game.

Glad you're back, chrpa! Been a bit of spam in your absence…
Bummer—escape game: Treasure has a memory leak on Android. The longer it runs, the slower it gets, until it becomes practically nonresponsive. And I was quite enjoying it…
Double bummer—I can't get Forest House working on Android, either. After selecting New and saying yes to whatever that popup is, it changes the music and displays the first game scene. A big blue message appears, with a checkbox in the upper-left corner to close it. But at that point, the game doesn't respond to any presses on the screen at all, and is frozen until you close it. 🙄
ARGH. Zero for three! Escape Game Answers (which can only be found in the Play Store by searching for 脱出ゲーム アンサーズ) doesn't work either—none of the four games ever progress past the "Loading…" screen. Other users have commented on this in the reviews, so it apparently ain't just me.
I don't normally download games, and I last downloaded and played through the ones back in Mobile Monday N°314 in January. But I played all those on my device with no trouble at all. 😒
Man, I'll be glad when the next Weekday Escape gets here, and life gets back to normal!
Honestly, the situation in casual gaming (on all platforms) is getting worse every month. I've installed all three games on my Android device and got through without any issues, and the fact that other players can't is rather frustrating.
I always install the games I'm posting and play them to be sure that they are fine but apparently, it doesn't work and I don't know why.
It's more and more difficult to find the games which are free, not stupid, available on both platforms, without region limitations, and without a language barrier. On top of that, there are quite many games which I install, play them for a while and uninstall because I can see they just won't do.
All posts are time consuming and frankly, I can't do more, I'm sorry (what I do for JiG is a hobby - I work full-time in another job).
