Description

Following a bizarre cataclysmic event that cracked the moon in half, the Earth is struggling with the environmental fallout. Everything is already dead or dying... except you. Or so you think. Don't Escape: 4 Days to Survive is a post-apocalyptic thriller from veteran developer Scriptwelder, creator of the popular horror series Deep Sleep and Don't Escape. Players must figure out a way to properly fortify their home against each night's new danger, as they learn the truth behind the apocalypse and search for a way to safety, if one exists.


Players will journey alongside David, a lone survivor after the end of the world, who finds himself having prophetic dreams... or nightmares. Each chapter of the game has multiple potential variations to encounter, from poisonous fog or spiders to a gang of murderous thugs or a deadly heat wave, and as a result, you'll need to adjust your strategy on different playthroughs. But you don't have forever. Certain actions advance the in-game clock, and you'll need to complete your preparations to (hopefully) stay alive before night falls.

Will you make it through all four days? Will your companions?


Features:

  • A classic pixelart aesthetic and creepy atmosphere from a veteran of horror and thrillers.
  • Logical puzzles and exploration to challenge players without frustrating them.
  • Time mechanics; certain actions advance the clock in a race against time.
  • A post-apocalyptic thriller, with an engaging storyline and cast.
  • Moody and engrossing original musical score.
  • Multiple variations for each chapter mean multiple playthroughs with new content.

Very, very pleasant surprise

I haven't played adventures like these for many years. The fallout-like environment seemed interesting enough, and I wasn't expecting much. But the game sucked me right in. I cannot praise the music and sound effects enough, they add a lot of atmosphere. Despite the pixelated look, there is a lot of attention to detail, like character shadows, or sound effects depending on the ground a character is walking on. Since I have been out of this genre for so long, I was afraid of puzzles thrown at me, held together by bits and pieces of story. Instead, I got the opposite - experiencing a dramatic story with puzzles that all made sense. For several days, this game got me hooked. I just finished my first playthrough, which was probably about 15, maybe 20 hours. I often was proud of surviving yet another day but I am not happy with the ending. I've heard that it has to be replayed which I will definitely do in the future. I really enjoyed it. I have never been stuck anywhere for long. haven't had that much fun with a video game for quite some time.

Awesome

If you aren't sure about this game the people who made it put out several flash games with a similar premise, don't escape 1 - 3 and they'll give you a great gameplay demo. This game itself is exactly what I would want to see out of a flash game turned into a full fledged release on Steam and GOG, takes what was awesome about the gameplay of the first three games but gives it more depth, adds on a story to make you care. There is even a semi-random element to enhance replayability or to make it that much funner watching your fiends play through it. There's four chapters, and on your first play through each chapter might take 90 minutes or so.

Amazing game

This game is a must buy for anyone who likes point and click games, or who have played don't escape, or deep sleep series before. It would be nice if Deep Sleep Trilogy and Don't Escape Trilogy were released not only on steam, but also on gog.

Unique

I hate games with point 'n click mechanism, but this one is different - I love the dawn mechanism where I need to secure my camp against difficulties, I love how I need to combine items and I love the strange story which come with this game. I hope there'll be sequel one day

Good Point and Click game

Very enjoyable point and click adventure game. Short and to the point. I think it couldve used some features to make replaying or reloading a little bit better, such as speeding up or automatically advancing dialogue either by key press or just automatically past already seen text with an option. The puzzles made significantly more sense than in many other adventure games I played. Good game.
