The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A room-scale VR escape room that feels like solving logical puzzles in a realistic, immersive, and slightly tense environment.

What players say

Players say EscapeVR Above the Clouds is a solid but divisive escape room that takes about two hours. It is more challenging than its predecessor Escape: The Basement, with puzzles that some call clever and others illogical. The game has empty areas like a multi-floor elevator that only serves three rooms, and Valve Index users report unclear controls.
