10 itemsAbout the Game
There has been a kidnapping! The victim has awoken in a bizarre office filled with curiosities – and can not find a way out. There is a mobile phone on the desk which has no reception, but has a single contact number in it.
Yours.
Will you answer a text from an unknown number? A complete stranger? They need your help. You are their only hope. Will you disrupt the kidnapper’s plans and help them escape?
Help Me Escape! The Puzzle Maker’s Office is a first in a series of “Virtual Text Message Escape Room Adventures” in which the player interacts with a virtual “partner” to solve puzzles, riddles and clues via a unique phone/text message interface. The player can ask/tell the partner anything in plain English.
