Our verdict

6/10

  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Players: 1
  • Playtime: 5–9 h

In The Space - Escape Room is a single-player, first-person sci-fi escape game. You sneak aboard a spaceship where a crew is running secret experiments, and you work through a long series of rooms full of codes, locks and logic puzzles. It suits solo players who want a lot of puzzles for the money and do not need a strong story.

The seven Steam reviews are split, four positive and three negative. Fans call it long, with puzzles ranging from simple to fiendishly hard, and some new twists among familiar ones. Critics say many puzzles boil down to guessing a number sequence from a vague visual cue, with busy rooms where props and interactive objects are hard to tell apart. One reviewer notes it uses a stock Unity escape-room toolkit and points to a digits puzzle with no correct solution, plus other puzzles that are underspecified or allow several answers.

Players report five to nine hours of play, which is generous. Several puzzles are also repeated. Buy it on sale if you want volume and can live with using hints when a clue is unclear; skip it if sloppy puzzle logic spoils the fun for you.

Pros

  • Long run of spaceship rooms, around five to nine hours
  • Wide range from simple codes to genuinely hard puzzles
  • Some puzzles add fresh twists on genre staples

Cons

  • Several puzzles are underspecified or allow multiple answers
  • Reviewer found a digits puzzle with no correct solution
  • Cluttered rooms blur what is interactive
  • Repeated puzzle types
