Evscaperoom - an escaperoom in Evennia

[Griatch Art]

For the MudCoder's Guild's game jam, I created a multiplayer  "escape room" in Evennia in a little less than a month. The theme for the jam was "One room".

Please play the game by following the above link first (I'm hosting a server so you can both play in the browser or via telnet)

It's got quite a nested story, multiple endings and some puzzles that you should hopefully find engaging.

For this, I wrote a custom little game engine for the puzzle/adventure genre. There is no inventory (since I don't want players to pick something up and log off, blocking everyone else from proceeding). Instead you 'focus' on an object and will then see actions for what you can do with it.

Once you've played you might be interested in how the code looks; it's distributed as an Evennia game-dir from my personal github account:

https://github.com/Griatch/evscaperoom .

The game code is just short of 10 000 lines, but I plan to break out the 'engine' into an Evennia contrib in the future.

Enjoy!
