Brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyed this game. Graphics, tasks & puzzles are superb. Only thing was I seemed to have unearthed a bug during one of the chapters. Checked the walkthrough and it wasn't working as it should so I emailed for help and got a reply within hours! Though I started the chapter again as advised it didn't work but an uninstall & reinstall solved it. Finished the game and the epilogue. Great game and great support. On to The Room Two methinks ...

This is great! It's a puzzle-solving game in the mould of Myst, without all the tedious travelling around between locations, because it's all set within a single room. The puzzles aren't impossible to solve, or even particularly difficult. The enjoyment comes from working methodically through each puzzle to get the clue needed to solve the next one. And there are a lot of puzzles. Excellently well done. There are also hints available along the way, should you get stuck, although most of them state the obvious. Worked well on my Note4. Would be wonderful on a tablet.

Warning: ADDICTIVE!!! I thought, "It's free. Why not?" Silly me. I devoured this free one, then promptly bought the next one... then the next. I have NO regrets. They truly put a tremendous amount of work into these games. I would have given all three five stars but there is an aggregating object manipulation/viewing angles issue, but aside from that these three games are excellent. Great fun, extremely addictive.

Fantastic Love the atmosphere of this game. The sense of mystery pulling you deeper, the feeling of wonder as you discover the next stage in the puzzle. Touch controls mostly feel intuitive, and the solutions to the puzzles never felt like they were obscure or forced you into pixel hunting. The few occasions I got stuck I found the hint system helped me out without just telling me the solution. Very well put together game.

Beautiful and unsettling The epilogue makes this game amazing...the end made my skin crawl, in the best way! The atmospheric sounds are haunting and unnerving. The puzzles are excellent. They have an almost physical feel. And the hints give just enough of a bump in the right direction. This is a quality game, well worth the purchase. It's no wonder it comes up after a search for "Myst." I will be buying the next games from this developer.

I am a huge Myst fan. Played every Myst game including Riven. It's been so hard to find games that are similar. Now we have The Room and even though I'm a little late to the Room party, I finally feel I have a game similar to Myst. It's beautiful. It runs perfectly with no hiccups or issues, and the puzzles are fun to try and solve even though they can be tough. And that's the real thing here: the game is fun. For the price, it's a no brainer and it should be played on a larger tablet. Truly one of the best games I've ever played. I can't wait to play games two and three. Thanks to the developers and keep up the good work.

Probably one of the most amazing games on mobile. I've never seen a more detailed game on mobile, and even console games and pc games of the same genre would be hard pressed to meet the depth of this game's detail, and it's entrancing story line. I truly enjoyed this game, and do not regret spending money on it at all. I don't think I've ever been this satisfied with a mobile app purchase. Try this for less than an hour, and if you aren't sucked in, get your money back. Yet, if you like this genre, I assure you - you won't be disappointed.
Truly unique I've been after a game to satisfy my taste for the mysterious whilst offering genuinely difficult puzzles that test your ability to think outside the box. The Room has an eerie atmosphere carried along by a captivating yet subtle soundtrack. I truly admire this games creator's for their ingenuity and originality. Modestly fulfils my need for the creepy side of entertainment whilst really getting those neurons firing. Round of applause for this one. 10\5 without effort
Amazingly Addictive! I do not review many games, but this one has definitely earned it. It is absolutely beautiful and challenging. It reminds me of puzzles you would find in the game Myst but way more intricate. It has an eerie atmosphere that keeps you engaged and curious. It did seem a little short considering I finished it within a day, however, not having to deal with ads and It being offered at such a low price, made it a worthy buy.
Blown away This is without a doubt the best mobile gaming experience to date. The whole trilogy had me encapsulated for hours and days on end. An amazing journey that saddened me with it's inevitable end. I hope for number 4 so much. 5 bucks for all 3 games?? Incredible value for money, would gladly pay triple for this. Massive recommendation to all thrill seekers and mystery solvers out there!
I don't know what to say This app is different from other puzzle solvers. It offers unique and intuitive puzzles that are different and challenging. The game is never to hard and just needs some thinking to get through. I also think that this game looks superb for a phone game. As a game developer I know the amount of effort that can go into a project like this, and I commend you on a well done work. There aren't enough good games out there as there should be, this is a prime example of what aspiring developers should strive for.
Can't resist buying all 3 Wonderfully addicting and so pleasant to look at with beautiful graphics. Each game increases in difficulty as the story deepens. Offers hints, but only after the game has given you time to figure out the next step on your own. Each game costs a little more than the last, but only because of the increasing depth and brain power required to make these games as challenging as they are. Well worth it!
Best app game for puzzles I really enjoyed playing this game on the S7, better than just clicking on items find those boring. Took me a long time to find this app game. Anything that need to think things through are the best. Worth the small investment much better than in app purchases. I completed it in 90 mins off and on using the hint on the game now and then. This is my first review, looking forward to playing the rest of The Room Games hopefully more will be made in the near future.
Wish there was more content Too bad you don't get more for the 99cents. It's so much fun to figure all the puzzles out, but I finished the game and epiloge in a few hours and was left wishing for more. And yes I can go buy the next two games,but my point here is, for an amazing game, I wished there was more if it for a paid game. If anything the first one should be free and then start charging for the sequels. Anyways great game and well done to the developer.
Wow--The best game in its league! I love most point and click puzzle games like this, but this one is stunning and far more brilliant than I anticipated. A lot of time and painstaking detail went into this and it shows. The only note I had an issue with was that I could not mute the music and just hear the sounds of the game, which were equally as amazing as the graphics. Not a big deal and totally worth it. Don't hesitate to buy this game!! Now--I'm off to the sequel :-D
Looks good... Up till now it seems to be a good game, well drawn but maybe easy... I don't know... Maybe it's too early to tell exactly if the riddles are good or not... Edit: the game is extremely easy... I didn't use any hint and I finished it fast, in a couple hours... The game is short, 4 chapters and 1 epilogue... Too fast... 4 stars because other escape games aren't too interactive like this one and this is very good...
Engaging and absolutely gorgeous This is the most beautiful, fascinating game I've ever played. I finished the whole thing in a couple hours, but every moment was amazing and I was only sad that it was over so soon. Also, I would pay SO MUCH money for actual models of these boxes and devices for my home. Minus the creepy otherwordly voices and things obviously.
Brilliant concept & stunning graphics! The game will transport you into this virtual world of puzzles that its so easy to forget that you are actually playing this on a mobile. The clues may not be the toughest to solve but keeps you hooked until you complete the game. The only short coming that I think of is that the game is too short and didn't last beyond one weekend!Fortunately sequels to the game are already available.
Wow I very rarely write reviews but felt compelled to with this game. This is the most intriguing, creative and fun game I have played from an Android device. Like people have said previously, the puzzles are not frustratingly difficult, but can still present a challenge. There is a "clue" feature to help if you're stumped. Graphics are great and the storyline around which the puzzles are created for draws you in. Can't wait to try out the sequel's.
Brilliant and engrossing. The Room is stacked full of brain teasing puzzles from wall to wall and will have you constantly searching every corner to find out how to solve the next task. The look of the game is very pleasing and is complimented fantastically by a very atmospheric sound track all of which is tied together nicely with an intriguing storyline. The only thing that is stopping me from giving this a full 5 is that I found it to be a little short but in no way should this put you off buying this gem of a game.
I'm kind of blown away. I've been playing lots of escape room games, but this one has no contest. Capturing storyline and great graphics. Love the 3D navigation which opens up so many more options, as well as putting you deeper into the game. But most impressive was the intricacy of all the machinery. I can't even imagine the work put into that. Fantastic! I never thought I'd actually purchase a game. Ever. But this was so incredibly worth it. I just finished it and I want to play it again! Can't wait to play Room 2.
Superb Absolutely one of the best puzzle games I've played so far. I've played this before but lost interest as I'm not heavy into puzzles, but I came back to this one and decided to give it another try. I especially love the ambiance while you're going through various puzzles. I hope the next two installments are as good as this because I will be purchasing them
Superb logic game This game is fantastic...i know everyone has said it but that is because it is! Great puzzle that requires logic and detective work but is neither too hard nor too easy. Not a hidden object game, but a genre of its own! Buy it and see for yourself you won't regret buying it you will only regret finishing it...
Curiouser and more curiouser Working through the first levels I feel pleased to have started. It is a charming and creative game. It is best suited for larger screens, darkened rooms, patient players, good processors and those who base gaming success on more than fastest times and points. It's challenging but not frustrating. I do find frequent references and symbols to a particilar mythology disconcerting though.
Great game I am on the epilogue at the moment. I think I'll be buying the sequel. This game kept me entertained for hours! The puzzles presented a moderate challenge which I enjoyed piecing together. I have never been great with riddles, puzzles, brainteasers, etc... However, with some effort and patience I made it through the levels, and without too much frustration at that. Beyond that, this game has a great atmosphere, from the graphics to the music to the story. It both intrigued and unsettled me. A great game!
Amazing I had no idea that a game like this, that you can play on your phone, could be this great. I know I'm late to the game here (no pun intended), but this was so good I had to rate it. I rarely rate apps, games or otherwise. This was just the right amount of challenging but not frustrating, was engaging, intriguing, looked great, music set the perfect tone. The app ran perfectly and I had no issues with performance at all. 10/10. I can't wait to go download 2 & 3!!
Easy but fun Probably the best puzzle game I've played. the over all concept/storyline is great and graphics are flawless. My only complaint is I finished the game (and the epilogue) in less then an hour of total game play. Even though it's short there are lots of puzzles and they're enjoyable. I would say its worth the download.
Mind bending at its BEST!!!!! Absolutely AWESOME you guys! This is a puzzle game, and a half. This game TRULY deserves being compared to the likes of Myst and Riven! (In fact, the initials on the notes left throughout the game even look familiar to me.) This game is a true HOME RUN, SLAM-DUNK, TOTAL TOUCHDOWN WIN!!! This game deserves awards. I am a fan forever, now, and will NEED every sequel you come up with! Way to go! Finally a game worth spending your time playing! A game WORTHY of comparison to Myst and Riven!!
Fantastic and beautiful! Worth every penny! Can't stand people who complain that they only got a couple of hours game play out of this. It's 79p! You spend £3 on coffee and drink it in 10 minutes, think about all the effort that goes into making a game and realise that spending less than £1 on this really isn't going to ruin your life. Enjoy the game, it's fantastic!
Intriguing til the last step I loved this game. It kept my attention until the very end. The music was hair raising, especially late at night with the lights turned out. The touch controls weren't hindered by the fact that my screen is cracked. A wonderful story line, but its almost overshadowed by the complexity of the puzzles. Almost. It's a must play.
I HAVE NO WORDS I was looking for a game to play after République stopped downloading for me. I remembered in that game they talked about this game. I've heard about this game but never tried it. This is one of the best puzzle games I've played can't wait to play two. I purchased it while still playing one awesome game. If fireproof was to make a game action game with these type of graphics and puzzle solving the creators of république will have a serious competitor on its hands. Bottle line loved it.
CAN'T GET ENOUGH! This game has got me hooked! Really teaches you to look outside of the box.... To get in the box! 😂 11/10! It's that good!! ***EDIT.... I wrote this after completing chapter 3, then I completed chapter 4... END OF GAME! Then you move on to Epilogue. God knows how long that will take! Anyways, took me about 3 hours to complete the game without epilogue. ***
Fantastic game Loved the graphics and the overall of this game. Just wish it was more then 4 chapters. I have bought and played the room and the room 2 and on my way to get room 3. The biggest negative to this game is it is just way to short... Beautiful game though. I'm amazed at how the game is thought through and transforms like it does into boxes and puzzles and keys and its absolutely an amazing game just really should be thought into being alot longer..especially since it isn't a free game
Phenomenal game This game is amazing! Awesome graphics, great creepy sounds..... makes you think and a great challenge! With the sound effects....sometimes you cant help but look around...as if someone else is there! Very engaging. .....i finished it to The room 2 in 1 day, but only because I had the day off and couldn't put it down! 10 thumbs up! Waiting for 3 on the 11th and hoping 4 is in the works! Great job!
Amazing!!! question? Downside. I have played it so many times that i am starting to play it less. I would play the other two but i dont have the money too. If only yoy made it free that would be great. The game is great and i feel in love with this game when i saw my brotjer have it on his phone. Why is it free for apple devices?
Best game ever Who thinks up this stuff? The way things open up are so complicated and involved once uncovered. Its fun just to watch things unfold into these great machinery pieces. You guys have great minds. I stopped playing Room Two until Room Three came out just to make sure I had something else to play. Please don't be long on Room 4!
I love the graphics and riddles thus far just having bug with GT3 My Galaxy Tab 3 - 7 inch & it resets everytime I am in a certain spot in game. I left email for developers see what happens. Hope bug gets fixed bcus looks very entertaining otherwise. Would give more stars but kinda dissapointed getting to second phase and cannot continue.
The room This game is simply amazing! Everything about it is captivating. It has amazing graphics, the story line is really good. I can just get lost for hours playing all these games. 1,2,&3. I have all of them. I really encourage everyone to try this game out. Even though it's challenging its.also so relaxing.
The Best Puzzler Simply the best of the Myst-like puzzle games. As much about mood and ambiance as it is about solving the device. Discreet hints if you get stuck. Note that it does make very occasional use of your devices gyroscope, and multi point touch. Not sure if it accounts for devices without them.
Best Nbrain Puzzle Game on Play!! Seriously, worth the price! I have rated CSI, Agent Alice, Tetris, Bejewled, and other hidden search. BUT hands down BEST puzzler game. 3D graphics, have to turn keys, open drawers by pulling out, shift left or right device to along images, open puzzle boxes, use a Cryptex to move objects or open. And has a interesting story line. Worth every penny.
