Review: I really felt that ‘Submerged: VR Escape the Room’ was the best chance that its developer ‘Blue Entropy Studios’ had of finally making a decent escape room game. After all the other fails in this ‘VR Escape the Room’ series of games. On the surface, they do well and the setting of a single room that is constantly filling with water does sound like a good idea. While it does look good it is the total lack of content here that lets it down. There are only 4 puzzles which never change so you can finish the game in 5 minutes flat. Overall this is the best of the series, but it is not worth the asking price and could still be a lot better than it currently is. Who knows, maybe in 100 games time they would have made 1 good one.
