Escape Game: 1K

In many of these games, knowing Japanese might make it easier, but the puzzles do not require it or you can use shape recognition to figure them out. In this game, the last puzzle is impossible if you can’t read the Japanese text (or, as another reviewer stated, know the convention this game designer uses).

I loved this game. The puzzles are quite creative but also make sense. Nice graphics and easy navigation. Only thing is that you need to be able to read Japanese to get the last clue. Hints, if you need them, are also only in Japanese. I can read enough that it was fine. Otherwise I would've given 5 stars.

Played with the help of a friend who knows Japanese well. Puzzles are difficult than previous games(those with mini games, like Christmas Eve, Japanese room, and ocean view room). The last puzzle is very smart! :-) I really like this one. By the way, for that reviewer who said cannot play because of language, I think a smart enough person can play without the help of hint (aka. Knowing Japanese) except the last one. The last puzzle is a little bit tricky if you cannot read Japanese and don't know the "cliche" trick of this game producer.
