![]() ![]() For research this entailed the viewing of all 3 films and whatever filmmaker information I could dig up in regards to uncovering the cube’s purpose. This article was designed with a focus on the Cube film series and to bring some clarity to the cube enigma. The films are set up with captives that awake into this new environment challenged with trying to figure a way out. A pattern to “which” rooms had traps was never established, though we know that they were activated with either motion or sound. The initial cube is a 6-sided room that offers small doors on all sides (leading to other cubes) with lethal booby traps awaiting in some of them. It’s not possible to work out the puzzle on your own: the contest blog post contained the original hint, while the Collection’s hint can be found in Cube Escape: Birthday.The Cube series is highly regarded as a fantastical and complex franchise that bases its films around the intricacies of a mystery cube. The puzzle where you have to “rub” certain images without any prompting is also a groaner, and feels like a lost smartphone mechanic that might have wormed its way into this game during the development of the smartphone-native premium games.Ĭube Escape: Theatre is the first of two Cube Escape games that has a small, hidden sidequest inside, originally tied to a real-world contest, and now tied to an achievement in the Cube Escape Collection. Probably the worst is playing Simon with a disembodied hand on a piano, not unlike a puzzle outright removed from later revisions of The 7 th Guest, although much shorter. ![]() A series of sliding block puzzles, just as mundane as the dominoes in Harvey’s Box, waits for you right at the start of the game, opening the game up with a bad first impression. Rusty Lake is on top of its game.Īs always, there are a few bad puzzles, although most of them are more dull than dead-ended. The way he interacts with “Remember the Seasons” on stage is both squeamish and revelatory all in its own ways. Also, mixing his drinks feels at least a little fun, rather than simply handing things to the woman. While constantly serving him drinks may feel a bit like the old woman’s repetitive quests in The Mill, this man gives you a mix of rewards, including an entire set of fresh puzzles, rather than always giving you the direct solution. Most of the game’s puzzles take place on the stage, with a few exceptions, especially as pertains to the witness at the bar, who just wants to drink away his misery. And the unidentified woman relives “the Seasons.” Anyone paying particularly close attention might deduce some bonuses about the series’ deepest mysteries, although it helps if you can read Devanagari. ![]() Crow (or rather, the bartender wearing a crow-shaped headpiece, as the case may be) does a series of tricks with light bulbs. Her act is followed, such as it is, by plants and animals attached to plumbing, and then by by runic symbols glowering over a blazing set. In the opening act, a woman dies on stage and is replaced by her own ghost, demanding Dale “balance the substance of past lives”: a heart, a fetus, a (recurring) shell, and a hat once worn by Ms. These acts also involve a lot of audience participation, i.e. The setting is a combination bar and theatre, and a play is about to hit the stage full of heavy metaphors. ![]() We even run into a character previously seen in Case 23, a witness in the still-unknown woman’s murder, who will go on to bigger things. Finding himself in another memory-cube, Dale is now in the recent past. Cube Escape: Theatre (spelled in the European fashion, as the developers are Dutch) is easily the series’ most surreal entry. ![]()
