Escape First 3
Escape First 3 is an escape room puzzle game! It includes 3 different escape rooms you can play!
The Rooms
The Abandoned School
You and your high-school friends are having a reunion party. Wanting to re-live the good old days, you decide to visit your old school, which has since been abandoned. At first, it’s all fun and games remembering the past, however there is one event you all chose to forget and will be forced to confront now.
The Secret Inheritance
A long lost relative of yours has passed away and left all their belongings to you. They lived a very luxurious life in their enormous manor, so you suspect that they must have a lot of money. However, they have hidden that money in the manor and have challenged you to find it, proving to them that you are worthy of their legacy.
Keep of Lost Souls
You and your adventurer friends are intrigued by the stories of a strange man that recently came to town. He talks about an old keep, where a huge battle took place years ago, over an artifact of great power and mysterious abilities. You decide to go and explore the keep in the hopes of finding this artifact.

Me and my friend can't play together, when he joins my game, he is stuck in the map, but he can play on his side. So we can't see what each others doing.

Every game in the Escape First series has been better than the last, and this is the first one that I would say is more good than bad. It still has the same problems as its predecessors (especially the awkward controls and the lack of inventory system for items you find). Items you drop still have a bad habit of falling through the map, needing all the items to be reset, and others clip very poorly when dropped onto surfaces making them difficult to see or find again.
The level design is much improved, as a lot of the previous games had too small rooms with very little space to explore. This game has gone a bit too far in the other direction, providing large expanses to search for the one small item you actually need in it. It's definitely better than previous titles though. The actual setting and atmosphere of the new levels are great, even if the first one did feel very much like it had been lifted straight from Phasmophobia.
There are still awkward puzzles, with multiple clues that link together in a way that is never completely adequately explained. There were far fewer times that i was completely stumped by a puzzle though, and none of the puzzles were either broken or completely nonsensical when you knew what the answer was.
The flashlight could definitely be improved, as I felt that it made basically no difference to my visibility at times. The Hint system properly worked for me for the first time ever, which I was very grateful for. I think the series is steadily improving to the point that I'm looking forward to the next game in the series
