About Mental Hospital Escape
Mental Hospital Escape opens with a bad morning. You fell asleep exhausted and woke up behind a locked door in a hospital ward where you clearly do not belong. Nobody is coming to sort out the mistake, so the only option is to find your own way out.
This is an escape room game in the classic point-and-click style. The room is a puzzle box, and the only instruction you get is to look for clues. Progress comes from noticing - something that seems out of place, a detail that connects to another, a clue that points somewhere you have not looked yet.
Along the way you run into all kinds of strange events, and the game's advice is not to hesitate: follow the clues wherever they lead. It is played in portrait view and supports phones and tablets as well as computers.

Tips and tricks
- Tap everything, including things that look like plain scenery. Escape games like to hide clues in ordinary objects.
- When you find something that looks important, stop and think about what it might connect to before you move on.
- If you are stuck, go back over the parts of the room you have already searched. A second look often reveals something you missed.
- Do not let the strange events throw you. The game tells you not to hesitate to follow the clues, so keep your attention on them.
