the dangerous gen-kan
The latest escape the room game by Kotorinosu is full of danger. Can you escape from the dangerous gen-kan?
Holding down the mouse and getting out of the way and turning off the lights.....all very tricky. Thanks for the link Bart. There is a Version 2 on their home page.
A good one of the deadly room set. I died 24 times, though I missed the 5th way to die. I'm sure it was using the key on the box. The false door was unexpected, nice touch too.
For those of you who haven't played the game yet, let me tell it's great fun! It's super hard and challenging! And, if that weren't great enough, every time you make a mistake you die! What fun!
There is an option to turn off the sound & animation so you can die faster. I found all the ways to die. Reminds me of the text games we made in school back in the 80s, lots of ways to die & only one way to live.
Only 17 deaths, but I needed the hints. Nice twist on an escape game - the dying sort of provides a little comic relief to keep you from getting too frustrated :)
The puzzles weren't that tricky. Didn't see the clues when the lights are off until after I had defused the bomb...which by trial and error took several deaths. And the false exit got me several times, and I needed a hint. I love Kotorinosu games. Always very clever and slick.
Plus, can anyone tell me how you die just by getting a code wrong or explode when hit by lasers? I also want to know how to die by just entering a false door. (Although I haven't opened the door yet. Tell me whats BEHIND THAT FAKE DOOR! Please, as I'm not going to even touch the door.)
FIRST!!
ReplyDeleteNow to try and solve. ;}
ReplyDeleteStuck with a stick and 2 little cubes. And got myself killed two times allready :-)
ReplyDeleteMake sure you look at the floor. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, yes, I found the piece of paper and killed myself again, solving the code :-)
ReplyDeleteCount of Death : 17
ReplyDeleteMy performance was not so good, but still fun! Thanks Kotorinosu. (And Bart)
Died numerous times but finally out
ReplyDeletestuck now with pliers. Cut wire holding breaker but now what?
ReplyDeleteSame here :(
ReplyDeleteHold lever until light above it goes green (or you'll blow up!).
ReplyDeleteStuck with the wheel...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the hint, Madandyb!
ReplyDeleteThought I got out, but the exit is a trap too! Stuck!
Out!
ReplyDeleteStuck with green and red block, a hammer and the metal plate with shapes. Now STUCK! lol

ReplyDeleteAfter you turn the wheel, move back

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to play.
ReplyDelete18 deaths, not as bad as it could have been. ;p
ReplyDeleteFun little escape, Bart, thanks for sharing it!
That was an interesting one. Kotorinosu seems to be experimenting a bit with their escape games.

ReplyDeleteReminds me of the text games we made in school back in the 80s, lots of ways to die & only one way to live.
thanks for helping me out!

ReplyDeleteI am stuck with a green and a red cube. I also have a piece of paper. Already died three times. Help!
ReplyDeleteSaw the clues on paper = doesn't help at all! Help!

ReplyDeleteCheers! Oh, I forgot to ask for whats in the box with the don't touch warning!
