Get to Know About Escape Series #3: The Phonebooth
Escape Series #3: The Phonebooth continues Shawn Tanner’s point-and-click escapes with a tighter stage. You stand trapped inside a worn phone booth with a stuck door and a handful of clues. Graffiti crowds the glass, the coin slot jams, and the keypad sits at the center. Every inch hides a clue to nudge the chain of puzzles forward.
Play leans on close inspection and small item tricks. You pick up loose bits, match numbers to symbols, and test combinations on the dial. Stickers and scrawled notes hint at phone numbers. These numbers trigger events or deliver codes. Progress comes from clear links, like prying a panel with a flat edge or lining up screws in the right order. Each step feeds the next without fluff.
The booth’s tight layout builds steady tension without cheap traps. Clues stay fair, the logic stays clean, and the pace suits a short session. The game rewards patience, sharp observation, and light note taking. Fans of the first two games see the dry humor and the sharp click targets. Newcomers get a focused entry into the series.
