Mackerel Pike Room Escape seems like an odd name for a game until you find out that a "Mackerel Pike" is another name for a "Pacific Saury", which is an important seasonal food representing autumn in Japanese cuisine... actually it's odd even then, but at least I learned something new today [subbed by Cyberjar88].

The older gamers amongst you might well be familiar with the disturbing audio effect caused by scraping your fingernails down a chalkboard, the rest of you however, who have never even seen a chalkboard, won't have ever heard anything quite like the soundtrack to Escape Sing's Office before...

Note: If you don't get the game screen directly by clicking on the link, and you end up instead on a screen of text you don't understand, then click on one of the three yellow buttons about half way down the page to get started.

Find The Escape Men 3 not only has a whole host of little green men in it, it also features a cute little cat called "Nyan", and a charming pup named "Wan", meaning that it manages to encapsulate about 95% of the content of the Internet all in one game... ohhh, kittens...[subbed by Tim].

Quick poll: which would get you to complete an "Aircraft Escape" first? Snakes, or the Soundtrack? [subbed by charlie].

Much like Part 1 and Part 2, Marooned Part 3 doesn't feature many dark shades of red, despite the name... [subbed by Buji].

Escape Of Romeo And Juliet is perhaps the finest point'n'click game that Dire Straits ever made, in Japanese, meaning they can finally give up the day job...[subbed by Buji].

Completely Standard is a no frills, no surprises, straight down the middle, URL changin' puzzler. It is in fact... Completely Standard [subbed by Patrick Kennedy].

Escape From Blender Art Gallery is a prime example of what happens when you get distracted by funny monkeys... [subbed by charlie].

Look for the 'Play Online Demo' link on Exmortis 3 to get a (good) free taste of this much awaited post apocalyptic horror point'n'click game (nb. once again, this isn't one for the kids to play, in case you didn't guess already), but you'll need to download it and stump up some cash (19USD) for the full thing... I know, I'm sorry, but it is Exmortis, it's not that much money, paying will help with future games.... argh... who am I kidding? Enjoy the demo, and at least think about paying for the full thing, even though, like me, you'll probably just play the demo and then cross your fingers that a commercial laden on-line full version will be available at some point in the future.

If you can't guess from the name I can tell you now that Heist II : Greed Is Hell is pretty scary with a twist of gore, so don't let the kids play, and keep a sofa handy to hide behind if your nerves are twitchy. That said it has some great atmospheric sound effects and music (it's creeptacular), and reasonably neat graphics, which can still be seen and heard from way behind my 5 seater sectional corner unit [subbed by Binasv].
