Escape

Just another escape - flash Friday. Not quite up to the level of Takagism, but I am not out yet.

No! I refuse! No more escape games! I'm awful at them!

Your first link tried to download a virus and had many many many pop-ups.

Several popups, and nothing seemed to happen when I tried clicking on objects.

I thought the game was pretty rubbish at first but the ending animation totally makes up for it.

I thought the exact opposite. The game itself, by avoiding being goofy or cartoonish, achieves a certain level of creepiness. The blood under the door was nice.

And then it ends like a rejected Cartoon Network short.

Hmmm. Virus? Sorry about that. I have pop-ups blocked, maybe that is why I didn't see it. I emailed Matt and asked him to delete the post.

A better thread on point 'n click leads to a page that includes this game and dozens of comparable ones.

This is the first one I've seen that catches cheaters (including me) that use the Tab key to find the hot spots in the flash area.

Ten points if you know where the quote comes from...

I just visited the site with an open IE browser, no pop-up blocker, and I got not pop-ups and no virus messages. This machine is protected with McAfee, yet no virus warning. What gives? I am not retracting my request to Matt to delete the link as I do not want anyone getting a virus but what did you guys see that I did not?

so are the numbers for the safe in the tall thing? and if so, how do you use them?

You mean the numbers for the briefcase - they are in the picture and couch.
