Escape Room



The Escape Room is unlocked for research in the Research Room immediately upon reaching Overgrowth, which requires the Pebberley Island DLC; it is a single-illness Treatment room, treating only the Visual Illness Wanderust. It is run by a Nurse, whose efficiency can be increased by Treatment skills.

Function
Once diagnosed with Wanderust, patients make their way to this clinic. The nurse will ascend the steps to the control panel for the Counterfeat, while the patient psyches themselves up at the start of the course. A press of the green button begins proceedings, with nothing for the nurse left to do but react to that which they will witness, and the patient starts their run. Their first task is to traverse the first corridor section, where spears will shoot out of the eight holes in the walls, requiring some gymnastic dodging. As they stagger out of this section, the boulder begins to roll down the half-pipe, which must also be narrowly avoided. After its fourth pass, the patient will leap past it.

The patient's landing in the second corridor section will dislodge some of the pieces of the cracked floor, and destabilising the rest, creating another obstacle for them to traverse. Finally, they will dive into the pagoda, expecting a clear path to freedom and raising their hands in celebration. Before they can exit, however, three spears shoot out of the last two columns in the pagoda, blocking the exit, and the entire structure begins to sink into the ground. Helpless, the patient will reach in vain as their adventure ends tragically. This deflated feeling will conclude their therapy, and their normal appearance will be restored as the pagoda rises back up, for them to exit, their treatment complete.

Appearance
A Mayan motif is present throughout the entire room's décor. The door is made of slightly yellow dark stone, with Mayan borders at the top and bottom. In the centre is a large lighter-coloured circle, containing a sun symbol. The floor is made up of large, highly reflective green tiles, with a rough surface. The walls are made up of greenish-grey stones, with two large round-cornered rectangles repeating, each containing the same three glyphs, in different orders.

Unlock
The Escape Room is made available to develop in the Research Room immediately upon starting Overgrowth, which requires the Pebberley Island DLC. The Escape Room research project is used to unlock it, which will require 1,000 to complete.
