Alcatraz: VR Escape Room is a virtual reality puzzle and adventure game developed by OriginsVR. Alcatraz: VR Escape Room is a refreshing alternative to other escape room titles, such as VR: Vacate the Room and The Puzzle Room VR.

Captivating story and setting

Players find themselves locked inside of a claustrophobic room, with the only view looking out over a stormy sea and the iconic cliffs of Alcatraz Island. Faced with bare furnishings, we are forced to examine every inch of the room for possible clues and work out the identity of your mysterious guardian angel. Players have a maximum time limit of one hour to solve the problems that they are presented with and escape from the room. The moody setting of the game – a fundamental part of its appeal – is complimented with its soundtrack – or lack of.

One of the most absorbing escape room titles for VR.

Alcatraz: VR Escape Room is well-put together, but there are a few bugs within the software, relating particularly to interaction with in-game objects. Of all titles in the escape room genre, however, Alcataz: VR Escape Room ranks highly.
