They never feel like a cop-out, there’s rarely anything as simple as having to solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle for the umpteenth time. Some of these puzzles get pretty difficult as you go on, like having to decipher an unknown language made of symbols. Point-and-click segments challenge you to solve puzzles to escape through each door. You’re not just reading the whole time, either. It all gets a bit Saw-like when people start dying in gruesome ways, such as acid showers and bombs inserted into people’s stomachs. They’re each fitted with watches that each display a number, and told that they must escape whatever place they’re in by working through puzzles contained by nine doors. In each game, nine people are locked in a place by a mysterious figure using the name Zero. The first two were only ported to PC in 2017 (with remastered visuals and new voice acting), as a pack called The Nonary Games, while Zero Time Dilemma stands on its own. There are three games in this series: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors Virtue’s Last Reward and Zero Time Dilemma.
If you enjoy getting your hands dirty with puzzles, the Zero Escape series is perhaps your best bet. Release date: 2017 | Developer: Spike Chunsoft | Steam
