Escape Tales: The Awakening
Play as a desperate parent who uses a ritual to enter a parallel dream dimension in search of a comatose child. The game is a story-driven, card-based escape experience that emphasizes exploration, environmental puzzles, and narrative choices rather than a timed clock. Players read descriptive scenes, solve logic and deduction puzzles using cards and journal entries, and make difficult decisions that alter the story and lead to multiple possible outcomes. The experience includes mature themes and a content warning for suicide.
