Miles Mercer: Escape Case

Abducted and locked away in 1997 Texas. A motel, an abandoned gas station, a desert relay base — the only way out is your wits and real science. Scavenge, build, escape.

Texas, 1997. A motel in the middle of nowhere.

You wake up locked in an unfamiliar room. Abducted by an unknown captor, you are Miles Mercer — and the only way out is up to you.

The door is sealed and there's nothing but desert beyond the window. But the room is full of forgotten junk — a paperclip, a cracked mirror, a dead battery. Don't overlook a single thing.

"Miles Mercer: Escape Case" is a science-driven escape room where everything you touch becomes a clue. Use real, middle-school-level science — light, heat, electricity, magnets, buoyancy, levers, sound, air pressure — to build gadgets, crack locks, and break out one room at a time.
