Escapology App Reviews

What a cool game. Great look, deceptively hard to master.

Seriously. This game bent my brain!

One of my favorite puzzle games...and kudos to the developer(s) that created this in such a short amount of time...as well as for making it available for free! Thx, keep up the good work...;)

Absolutely love this clever, challenging game. Simple but makes you think! Great job.

This is a terrific little puzzler. Lots of levels, hours of content.

Love that I found another great puzzle game, this one is definitely unique & really addictive. The only bummer is that there are no "cheats" online anywhere....Im stuck on Giza-8, so havent been able to play anymore b/c I cant get past it! Ahhhh

Very polished, fun puzzler. Slightly different from anything else Ive played before -- closest to sokoban, if instead of directly manipulating objects to goal points, you had to indirectly move them there by manipulating the entire floor underneath them. Needs a back button, not just a redo. Also, it took me a bit to figure out the controls, as at first swipe I assumed I was moving the frame or blocks...not the floor (moving a floor would just cause balls to roll in place). My wife had the same problem until I suggested she imagine she were moving the floor and the flat discs that sat upon it. To address this, you could change the shape of the balls to something that indicates or heavily implies the bottom is flat (an icosahedron or dodecahedron, for example), or you could present the option to invert the control scheme.

I love this game!!! A fun, relaxing game challenge. Totally worth the freeness!!!! I wish someone would make cheats though......... :)

Simple, challenging, and brilliant

Wow, what a mind-screw of a game; much like labyrinth, the difficulty is in having to control the entire playing field, but here you have not just one token but many, plus a few obstacles that modify their path. The initial training levels bring you up to speed quickly, and then the brutality sets in almost immediately. This game means business, and if you cant handle frustration and thinking way ahead you wont get far. Some levels are easier than they look, and some much harder; a trip to bonus land shows extremely simple but nearly unsolvable puzzles. One of the things I liked he most about it is that it lets you skip levels, and if you can complete most but not all of a city, you can move on to the next. Youre never locked into clearing a path like most app games. Also, it never wastes your time on useless animations, I hate games that are all flash. Excellent work.

Simple mechanics that lead to deep, rich puzzles. This game has beautifully simple rules, extremely simple to play, and yet the depth and complexity which the puzzles reach is astounding. Its the kind of game where you can solve a puzzle after much deliberation and still not be able to explain how you did it - your mind internalizes it before you can put words to it. All these things make it the best puzzle game Ive played in ages. It feels like something ancient and eternal, like Go. Combined with a beautiful and simple presentation, this is one of the best apps available.

From El Dorado Perfect as is. Keep adding new levels.

This is an enjoyable puzzler with nice graphics and polished presentation. One nice addition would be Game Center support so I can see how my friends are doing compared to me. Thanks for making this free!

Great game hours of fun very challenging.

This game Is great ...its very amusing and gets you thinking ...I love it

This is a well-designed app. You really need to use your mind to solve some of these puzzles. I am waiting for the developers to add more.

A keeper! Like many, Id suspect, Ive downloaded many free games, planning on trying them all and deciding which ones to keep as favorites. Escapology is one of those youll keep! Quick playing, like a hand of solitaire, youll escape often, and I do mean escape, as the environment is pleasant, simple and calming... Im on the second play board, New York - 7, and theres no doubt now, Im really enjoying this... Not too difficult. Forces you to think. The puzzles are really simple, just intuitive. Many thanks to Hyperbolic Magnetism for freely sharing such an unusual and yet beautifully simple, wonderful brainteaser.

Keep up the good work

I have played a LOT of puzzles in my day (starting w pencil and paper, graduating games written in BASIC for DOS- you get the picture). I dont think Ive ever played something with the internal logic this game uses. SO clever, SO addicting and SO MUCH FUN!

Original, perplexing, polished puzzle game. I highly recommend it for both casual and hardcore puzzle fans.
