For this week's Mobile Friday i tried LEMON HOUSE: ROOM ESCAPE, from developers APARTMENT BACON, on my iPhone 14 Pro.
I've never been good at point and click games, nor have i ever done an escape room. i've seen many of the games from APARTMENT BACON in the charts over the years but not tried one so with LEMON HOUSE: ROOM ESCAPE being the latest release in the series i wanted to finally give it a go.
As this video will show, i'm just not good at LEMON HOUSE: ROOM ESCAPE. there was nothing i found easy. I'm not saying it's a bad game, unfortunately i'm not the right person to judge that. all i can say is that i personally found it tough.
The simple graphics weren't an issue for me, but the music and sound effects didn't add anything to the experience and were a little distracting. for the most part, i thought the game handled the screen space well. there were no additional downloads, making this a decent choice for playing on the go. But there was a banner at the bottom for most of my time playing the game. it mostly only showed a picture for advertising but every now and then it was a moving picture. with this banner being at the bottom of the screen, it was out of the way but it was still distracting.
A smart use of advertising came when i finally wanted to get a hint about the puzzles, as i was stuck. we're given the option to get a hint in return for watching a video. the advert was a minute long, but then it turned out it wasn't just one hint but hints for all puzzles! Honestly, i think this was a bit too generous. i would've liked 1 hint for the first puzzle for free, and then the game could've offered hints for the next 3 puzzles for an advert watch.
Version 1.1 Played.
