Nowhere House is a short point and click escape room game, the third chapter of Dark Dome's Hidden Town series. Legend says anyone who enters the house of a witch who vanished on the day of her conviction is trapped forever, and of course you go in. The hook is three parallel worlds: you switch between them and get help from characters trapped in the house, using clues from one world to solve puzzles in another. It suits solo players who like bite-sized, mobile-style escape games.
With 12 Steam reviews, 11 positive, and only a few written ones, the evidence is thin. Longtime Dark Dome players call the series well worth playing and enjoy the links between games, which can be played in any order; one sums it up as nice spooky witch fun, not amazing but not bad.
The objective limits are clear: it takes about one to two hours, it started life on mobile, and the story pays off most if you play other Hidden Town games. At its low price it is a fair pick for escape room fans working through the series.
Pros
- Three parallel worlds share clues between each other
- Spooky witch house legend ties into the Hidden Town series
- Low price
Cons
- Short at one to two hours
