Time Escape Episode 1: The Old House is a new point and click type room escape game by Barking Games. Author comment: This is the most demanding game I have made yet. With about 500 images and 100 sounds it should give even the most experienced room escape expert a run for his/her money. As with all room escape games you have to escape a room, well actually you have to escape a whole house. Click on items to make things happen. Some items can be picked up and used later. This is a beta version of the game. Good luck and have fun!Play This Game

ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm out now
rofl thnx guys ill try brute force
ReplyDelete;)
What do i do with the mouse?
ReplyDeletewow i just saw update now we got a new page ^.^
ReplyDeletemissing two secrets and gonna to bed.. good luck to all
ReplyDeleteI swiped the 2 cards from the gem puzzle. They still show in my inventory. doors won't open. Did anyone else have this problem?
ReplyDeleteI don't know if this is a bug or if its because I haven't found the brush. Urrrrrgh.
The mouse isn't used until you get through the 'warning' door.
ReplyDeleteOops, there is no white gem- I can't access the purple gem though- what are the coordinates I need to enter to activate te porthole? Many thanks.
ReplyDeletehow do i disconect the camera?
ReplyDeletealice thnx for puzzle
ReplyDeletehow i stop beeping in blue gem room? -.- its getting rly annoying
Alice - you don;t get the brush before this so it isn't that - have you connected the power to the door?
ReplyDeleteTLC - Guess what - Hit it with the Hammer!!
ReplyDeleteH u get the cordinates from the room in the basement. Through the wall with the wine bottles, the notes on the wall, try them all
ReplyDeleterofl i just tried hiotting camera with hammer and it was awesome
ReplyDeletei guess i do need to use it more often =)
thx marty :)
ReplyDeleterofl i actully destroyed camera myself XD i didnt even see marty's post about hammer rofl i was just lookign for stuff that is destructive
ReplyDeletecrud now i need 2 keycards -.-
ReplyDeletemy cordinates were 516
ReplyDeletewhere all the other gems? i only have blue+green
ReplyDeletealice you get one keycard from gem puzzle which is keycard2.i picked up 2 too and lost my wine glass.i used 1 keycard on door and had anoter one in inventory that i could not click. guessing that its a bug
ReplyDeletehas any one found the brush or is my game stuck? cant open warning doors.
ReplyDeletestill waiting for it to load, that's over 1/2 hour now.... you guys didn't have this problem did you?
ReplyDeleterofl thnx alice i was just about to ask for rift gen cords btw do you ever heat the cog or something cuz idk what to do wit it
ReplyDeletemaxis mine loaded in like 1 min =/ i hope urs loads soon
ReplyDeletein the least ur getting all answers so try writing the things you see down so you dont gotta ask =D
ReplyDeletenottypony, I swiped both cards but it still says I have card one, other card in inventory won't let me highlight it. Please don't be a bug for I can't do this again. Even though I have zoomed it to the max I am going blind.LOL
ReplyDeletejust highlight one clog and move it to the other they combine.
ReplyDeletewe cna beat this accursed thing cuz we is escapegamers we stick together and suceed
ReplyDeletealice i know but what do i do with it now?
ReplyDeleteAlice you get the brush after the warning doors - all I can think of is that either you haven't smashed the camera or you haven't used the pitchfork to connect the power - otherwise it's a bug - bad luck.
ReplyDeleteEGM - the cog is used in the basement, in the gap by the wine rack.
u don't get 2nd card till u do stuff in the warning room
ReplyDeleterestart seems like the only answer:(
ReplyDeletenow im thinking am i such an addict that i will replay this now or just try it later when i hav nothing else to do
rofl i accidently turned on portal thingy with a match then a image came up then said close connection then a hand came out and destroyed it =/ well ill brb
ReplyDeletemust have been those darkroid dudes
ReplyDeleteOkay, so, I've done everything everyone else has... I think. I got all the gems. When I click in the middle of the gems, it says something is preventing me from whatever. I have a wine bottle filled with the potion. I have a wine glass, filled water (I'm hoping that I won't have to start over so I can use the glass. I've spent the last 10 minutes trying to find a way to empty it. No go). I have a mouse, a hammer, a screwdriver, a sword, the matches, and the wooden leg. The only place I haven't been and tabbed all the way through is whatever is bricked up in the basement, but I can't find a way in. Any help?
ReplyDeletei have been playing along and didn't realize the game is live. I am sooooconfused. Have 15 items in my inventory, only the purple gem, turned the water & power on, by don't have the handles. three torn notes and two pages. help anyone????
ReplyDeletenanyque your comment reminds me that i hav used wine glass already on the electricity thng next to puzzle!!!
ReplyDeleteso how am i to speed down the mouse in cage??????
use dynomite for stone wall. place it in the lower middle and light it. is that what your talking about or another place?
ReplyDeleteNanyque - empty your glass of wine over the power box with the ligtning symbol near the gem puzzle and then you can proceed.
ReplyDeleteOf all the stupid things to be stuck with! I don't know where to use the last key, the blue key
ReplyDeletewhere's the dart board that you all are talking about?
ReplyDeletenottypomy - administer the mixed potion and wine to the mouse.
ReplyDeleteput the potion in the wine bottle and give to mouse to calm it down
ReplyDeleteTLC - front door - Enjoy!!
ReplyDeletewhere is the wine bottle??
ReplyDeletedart board is in the romm behind the wine bottles in the basement
ReplyDeleteI have smashed the camera and connected the power. have wine bottle mouse hammer screwdriver sword 2 keycards and matches.
ReplyDeleteMust be a f*&#king bug. I think I'll wait for a walkthrough. Bummer, I was so close :(
Good luck to all and to all a good night.
in! don't think I'll even try to catch up???
ReplyDeletelol, The one with the stained glass. Didn't think of that as a door as too colourful. OUT!! Thanks all
ReplyDeletehow did you guys capture the mouse?
ReplyDeletei need lots of help!
the stained colorful glass is a door??!!!
ReplyDeletei had no idea.thought it was a closet lol
put cheese nxt to mouse hole and click like mad
ReplyDeletetlc, thx for answering me, damn i getting tired from climbing all these darn stairs...
ReplyDeleteMichele - Place the cheese beside the mousehole and then click the mouse as he comes out - might take 5 or 6 tries. Can't remember where you get the cheese - might be in the oven??
ReplyDeleteohh thx notty, i was trying to kill him with the knife after i placed the cheese, or bang him on the head with the hammer- i didn't think of just trying to click on him lol!!!!
ReplyDeletewhat am i supposed to do with the helmet that is on the skeletons head? what about all the gray boxes to the right of the skeleton?
ReplyDeletegot him!
ReplyDeletenever fails. I post a question and I figure it out. I'm out. I can't believe I got out! :)
ReplyDeleteSeanchan - put the mouse in the area to the left and administer the wine and potion, then place the helmet on the mouse. You'll get a silver key which can be used on the boxes.
ReplyDeletedamn, now what, what friggin helmet?
ReplyDeletejust wondering if i destroy the rift machine does that mena i lost? lol
ReplyDeletebefore I go. was any one able to open wooden nailed up wardrobe by bed in basement. I have 11 out of 14 secret things and am missing one torn note. could that be the problem?
ReplyDeletethanks marty!
ReplyDeletelol:) michele you might feel like doing that to every object in the house soon
ReplyDeletei need a wine bottle to mix with potion which i cant find
how do i make the wall with the wine "BUDGE" i'm getting impatient-can u all tell:)
ReplyDeletenvm i think i got purp gem for destroying the machine
ReplyDeleteI got all the notes but not all the secrets - was unable to open the boarded up rooms upstairs or the one in the basement - don't care was just glad to get out!
ReplyDeleteBlowing up the rift machine is fine - let's be honest it's for the good of the Space Time Continuum!!
Marty when you said about connecting the power to door you were talking about using that fork thin right? door is beeping and flashing. Should I have done something else?
ReplyDeleteMichele you put the two joined half cogs in the grey circular area, and then press against the middle of the wall.
ReplyDeletewhere is red gem and orange gem?
ReplyDeleteNo Alice that's it - once it's emitting that irritating beep the power is on, only thing left to do is break the camera and swipe - probably have to swipe card one 1st so that you can get the 'security breach - 2nd card required message' - maybe that's the issue?
ReplyDeletethnk you michele you indirectly reminded me where to get the stupid wine bottle i hav been searchin for
ReplyDeleteput the grey cog thng on hole in center of wall where wine is
there are 2 parts of the cog(?) which you get in the hall
NOONONONONONNOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo f'n game froz with sword in play and won't let me pick up anything else or put away or FINISH.
ReplyDeleteDamn, thx for the hints everyone, couldn't have made it this far without you. Gonna have a tini and sulk.
I have the brush, but do i need to find paint? tried to paint wall behind skeleton, but no luck....
ReplyDeletesmoooooooch-Marty
ReplyDeletewhere is the bruch btw?
ReplyDeleteMarty swiped both cards. Message? What message?
ReplyDeleteEGM, red gem in basment, lite all torches and use screwdriver on grate
ReplyDeleterofl thats for the red fuse
ReplyDeletemichele is that a pic of ur dog?
ReplyDeleteSeanchan - the room behind the kitchen (through hole in wall) has tin of paint - paint that wall and get key from tin.
ReplyDeleteAlice - after swiping card 1 there should be a message that a second card is required.
Nevermind. I know what you are talking about. I picked up a message it flashed real fast and never showed up in my inventory or notes. Ok thats it IM OUT OF HERE! Thanks for all the help.
ReplyDeletefinally out!!thnx everyone for the help:)

ReplyDeletesword? what stinkin sword? aye yi yi........
ReplyDeletenvm i hit it wiht a fork and it fell down now i just ened red gem
ReplyDeleteEGM
ReplyDeleteOrange gem is behind dartboard in basement and red is in grate in basement look at my 3:01 post
Seanchan - once you have the brush go back into the kitchen, then into the room behind that go left / right to the point where there is a tin (can maybe to you) of paint and paint the wall where it is near the orange part. Dip the brush again and you should get the key. If I'm wron about the room where the paint is it is the kitchen or the living/dining room behind it.
ReplyDeleteEGM red gem behind grill in basement (use screwdriver) orange/yellow behing dartboard in basement - throw three knives then the fork!
Right folks I'm out of here - it's wayyyyy past bed time in Ireland!
Take it easy!
for red gem you need two pictures and put them in one of the rooms that has half pictures
ReplyDeleteone picture is in room with the two locks.cut that pic in basement near fuse box
