Description: John’s Wizard Dungeon is a VR Escape Room. You’ve Astral Projected yourself into his private lair to steal his Elixir of Life, however, the spell only lasts 5 minutes! In that time you will need to find the passcode for the door keeping the Elixir. Find three hidden gems scattered throughout John’s room and place them into the podium to reveal the code!
Review: While I do give credit to the developer of this game for trying something new with a tired old genre, sadly ‘John’s Wizard Dungeon’ isn’t all that good. Its an escape room style of game in which you need to find three hidden gems and a key. While it might take you 2 or 3 attempts to find the key each try is only 5 minutes long, so it’s not like there is a lot of content in the first place. But at the end of the day, it is free and for a freebie, it is not bad looking at all and worth a look, just don’t expect much of a challenge.
