first room was a bit confusing with looking at the wall, glad you had walkthroughs, love the riddles, the endings and the story, great game.

For a horrible moment about halfway through I thought this was going to be a horror story. The happy ending came as a double relief!

Having the walkthrough option was nice, and added a level of satisfaction when I won workout using it. Even though I had to try just about everything before I solved some of the puzzles.

Deducted 1 point for a few typos. Still a good game, though.

Such a good idea, but unfortunately it is poorly executed. Disappointing.

I actually really enjoyed this game. It was a good length, very easy to understand and yet still challenging and fun. I loved that there was an actual walkthrough option, as usually when someone gets stuck in other games I've played there isn't any answer, or the hint is really vague. Overall a very good game!

Loved it. Only had to use the walkthrough a couple times, and when it was it was just helpful enough without ruining the whole thing for me. Great story, and loved the twists!

Very well made game. Completed it without the walkthrough. I'm impressed. One of my most favourite games. The logic was very helpful.

I couldn't even get passed the first room without looking at the walkthrough. There NO indication of what direction is what and no clue what your suppose to do.

It was good, but you were a woman the whole time? A friend or lesbo lover? wth

Extremely challenging, creative, and well-written. Unfortunately, due to the unusual set of circumstances, I couldn't do it without the walkthrough. Logic wasn't a lot of help. I needed the walkthrough to tell me what I could interact with and where I was supposed to interact with something next.

I really loved this game. It seemed relatively simple at first, but kept getting more complex and I liked the mystery. I would love to see another like this :)

Easy controls, low frustration with walkthrough.

Good story telling that builds up a mystery.

Can't get past 2nd room. Can't remember anything. Walk through doesn't help here. Otherwise it's very good.

NIce! I did use the walk through feature quite a bit. A great mystery! Like how you added a choice between two endings.

Review KyuJones

Really fun. I very much appreciated the in-game walkthrough. There were a few things I wouldn't have thought to do, so I did need to rely on the walkthrough a couple times towards the end.

Great puzzles! Played a couple times. ^_^

I loved it! I had to use the walkthrough on all the levels (except the first one and the second one), but still a great game.

Review Segrified

This was pretty great. A nice story and complex puzzles. It takes a while when you don't use the walkthrough feature, and there are a few times when you might think "How was I supposed to know that?", but a great experience overall.

Review MisterPibb316

A very clever game with a powerful story that certainly did not go in the direction I expected it to. Despite only being several rooms, the plot and puzzles are implemented in a manner that prevents you from beating the game in 10 minutes unless you've played it before or are thinking on the exact wavelength of the author.

Game has an in-game walkthrough--expect to use it.

Definetly 5 star, I like the walkthrough though(I used it the whole time) It was lots of fun and definetly thrilling

Review Dlaeyn

I liked the idea of having to think of solutions to the puzzles given the restrictions at the beginning of the game. With an interesting storyline, and stages that were just the right length, I found Room Serial to be delightful and pretty creative. Thumbs up!

This was a really interesting concept and I enjoyed it. The start was challenging, as you are limited in what you can do until you get your powers back! Clever!
