Escape Academy is an immersive adventure game where players embark on a puzzle-filled journey. Set in a specialized school for aspiring Escapists, players will encounter a series of captivating escape rooms that will test their problem-solving skills. Along the way, there is a plethora of intriguing puzzles to solve.
For those looking for even more excitement, Escape Academy offers DLC options. One of the DLCs, Escape Academy: Escape from Anti-Escape Island, presents a thrilling challenge set during the summer break of the Academy. Players must find their way off an unexplored island while uncovering a new conspiracy. This DLC provides an elevated level of difficulty compared to the main game, especially in its final part, Into The Capture Dimension.
Getting To The Final Section
Puzzle: Fulfill Your Destiny
Following the completion of the prior section, The Experiment, individuals will be transported to Doctor Liz Nemeth’s laboratory. It will be discovered that the Headmaster has successfully taken charge of Nemeth’s portal, thus initiating the thrilling adventure Into The Capture Dimension.
Once players have entered Nemeth's portal, they will be transported to a different room where they will encounter Jeb, who is trapped within a colossal hourglass. The responsibility falls upon the player to free him.
Puzzle: Solve The Think Tanks
The puzzle can be found beyond the door adjacent to the purple tanks. Making their way through the door will transport players to a fresh escape room. Jeb, on the other hand, will find himself confined within a colossal tube that is gradually being filled with a liquid substance. Players are granted a total of eight minutes to unravel the room's two puzzles and liberate Jeb.
Players can find three Science Juices in several locations:
In the far right corner of the room.
Jeb is trapped underneath a nearby elevated platform.
Locate Jeb on the left side of the elevated platform after entering the room. Use the ladder to go up and then move towards the right.
Once the three Science Juices have been located, players should proceed up the second ladder in the escape room. At this location, they will encounter a container that is secured with a padlock and a cylinder containing four numbered balls. By pouring the Science Juices into the cylinder, the combination for the padlock (2-6-7-4) is revealed. Once the padlock is unlocked, players can rotate a large wheel, thereby gaining access to the next puzzle.
Puzzle: Mind the Mines
The Think Tanks puzzle becomes available once players successfully complete Fulfill Your Destiny. This puzzle is situated within the escape room and centers around three sizable pipes. Each pipe will now contain vibrant liquid, with one pipe housing a rubber duck. It is this duck that holds the key to completing the escape room.
In order to retrieve the key, players must discover a method to make the duck float. This can be achieved by organizing the liquids within the pipes. The pipe positioned on the right must be filled entirely with a single color liquid. To sort the liquids accordingly, players can rotate the three wheels located near the pipes.
Here's one way to solve The Think Tanks:
Have the Right pipe fill the Left
Have the Left pipe fill the Center
Have the Right pipe fill the Left
The Right needs to be filled by the Center pipe. After completion, players can utilize the key found at the control panel. Positioned at the highest point of the tallest control panel, it will be situated towards the right side.
Puzzle: Do A Crate Job
Upon completing the preceding room, players will be instantly transported back to the hub area. Here, a few doors will remain unresolved. Proceed through the door adorned with bombs. Within this particular chamber, Jeb finds himself ensnared atop a precarious landmine while players are granted a mere eight minutes to devise a plan and liberate him.
The first challenge involves deciphering the password to unlock a gate. A board with red and white dots, along with letters, will be provided. Each letter is associated with a specific pattern of surrounding dots. Adjacent to the board, a display will continuously flash these patterns. The combined patterns spell out the password: BLAST.
Once the password is entered, proceed past the gate. Players will then encounter a grid of tiles containing hidden bombs. Stepping on a tile reveals a number indicating the number of bombs in its vicinity. It's essentially a larger version of the game Minesweeper. The objective is to reach the other side without accidentally stepping on a bomb.
The grid is mapped out below, with bombs highlighted in red:

Puzzle: Help Jeb Off The Hook
Navigate to the central hub and enter the door encircled by crates. Inside the subsequent escape room, players will come across multiple boxes. These boxes house numbered cards, five in total. Locate and fetch the cards, and proceed to the control panel of the crane.
To control the crane's movement, players can utilize the arrows displayed on the control panel, aligning each arrow with its corresponding numbered card. By successfully matching and inputting the correct combination, players can unlock a crate. The specific combinations required for unlocking Crate One are as follows:
- Move the crane upwards twice, and then move it towards the right twice.
Crate Two: Up seven, right five, down six.
Crate Three: Up six, right five, down two, left two.
Each crate contains a logic wheel. Be sure to grab them before moving on.
Puzzle: Welcome To The Laser Zone
After successfully completing Do A Crate Job, proceed up the adjacent walkway to locate an additional control panel. This panel is equipped with three slots designed to hold control wheels. Place the yellow wheel in the left slot, the red wheel in the center slot, and the blue wheel in the right slot. Carefully rotate the wheels until they perfectly align with the image displayed below:

In the Laser Room, players will come across a locked machine, and they can unveil the code by carefully examining their environment. Colorful boxes with numbers will be present, where each number and color corresponds to a digit in the code. Additionally, these boxes are divided in half, prompting players to divide each number by two. Consequently, the code to unlock the machine is 132.
After inputting the code, players can access the machine. The objective now shifts to utilizing mirrors in order to effectively guide the laser towards its designated target. This task may prove challenging to decipher. If players require assistance, they can refer to the provided image below:
