You wake up in a Room...

The door is locked, and there's no way to knock it down... Digging around,  you manage to find some items: A jar of mayonaise, a broken clock, and some expired lottery tickets. What do you do!? Well not much, because I don't know how to program 3d flash games. But there's still hope.

Ever play those room escape games?

After watching Hitoshi Matsumoto's latest film, you might be inclined to find your way out of some of these ridiculously intricate point and click 3D locked room mystery games!

While arguably, the tools are decidely less random than those seen in Symbol - the item combinations and consequent usage concepts are pretty abstract. Unfortunately, unlike in the film, there are no cool comics with encouraging theme music (that I know of) to brainstorm with. Though there are FAQS out there (but those are no fun, and don't really help your brain to melt)

Anyhow, the best of these games are FREE, load quickly with a solid connection, a fine alternative to crack, and in glorious 3D - no complex controls to learn, only need to point and click.

Start with the classic Crimson Room, and see where it takes you!
