It's that time again! We're on the lookout for the top Community Rooms of the last month, and this time around, we're extending our search to cover the winter season. That means we'll be selecting outstanding rooms from both December and November!
This is also the first time I'm doing Community Picks, so I would like to give a big shout-out to our Discord gang who helped me with putting this together. Hope I did well! ????
Also, just a tiny reminder – we've recently unveiled our latest addition to the Escape Simulator series: a Magic DLC! Don't forget to hit that wishlist button and stay in the loop!

Now, let's get into it!
Our favorite picks this Winter
A Medieval Adventure ????????
A Medieval Adventure - In this visually unique and stunning room you'll find yourself wandering through enchanting woods, encountering a jewelry merchant in need of your help. Sounds simple enough, right? Well, this room created by two authors; Elkondo (responsible for story, dialogue & puzzle mechanics) and Zweetkonijn (who did models, environment & music) will take you on quite a journey filled with fun and engaging puzzles, as well as inventive twists on, well, let's call it "battle planning"?
The Puzzler's Dungeon ????????
The Puzzler's Dungeon - This room is a treat for all you mystery and (light) horror lovers out there. Clears throat and starts talking in that dramatic movie trailers guy voice: "The day was going so well. Birds were chirping. Grandma's pie was smelling so good. But then, all of the sudden, you find yourself in a dungeon. Puzzler's Dungeon". Ok, we went a bit overboard here. It's a fantastic room filled with great and intricate puzzles; created by Easter.
Puzzles Galore 3: Sign Clutter ⛔????????
Puzzles Galore 3: Sign Clutter - Ah, traffic – the driving experience that can either be a breeze or the most stress-inducing day of your life. Enter our esteemed room builder, Wollo, who has crafted a room tailored for everyone who loves traffic - SIGNS. So, no worries, no rush hour here. This cleverly designed room invites you to clear out those pesky road signs by solving their puzzles.
Tax Evasion ????????
Tax Evasion - The first-ever room made by GeriHatrick is also one of the very best among our Winter Season picks. What it is about? Well, this isn't a how-to-evade-paying-taxes-simulator even though the room title could suggest that ???? Imagine finding yourself in a tax office that you can't exit from. We are pretty sure this would be a horror scenario for most people, but this room is far from it. It is an incredibly well-designed escape room filled with some very clever and challenging puzzles.
The Hacker: matrix meltdown ????????????????
The Hacker: matrix meltdown - In case you've watched that Hackers movie from 1995, you'll know the drill. You find yourself on a super-important mission where your job is to investigate the apartment that belongs to a teenager who's a suspect in strange signals which may have led to a security breach of one of the biggest space stations. The room itself is somewhat medium-hard, but at the same time incredibly well put together. Great work, Dr Krank!
The Puppet Master ????
The Puppet Master - One of the most unique rooms our community has favored during this Winter Season is certainly The Puppet Master. Your task is to finish the work of the old puppet master who has passed away. We won't spoil what exactly you have to finish in this great room by Brengo. But you'll certainly find it most amusing ????
Secrets & Alibis ????
Secrets & Alibis - For our final pick, this one is a treat for fans of books and movies based on Agatha Christie's work. In this room, you have to solve the mystery of Madam Green's murder by investigating the Royce Manor. This great room has been masterfully put together by Brush$troke, but the author is also crediting Robin, Chazzy B for making some of the assets, as well as k8sparrot, GG3L, Wollo and Autumnlight91 for playtesting. A prime example of a fantastic community collaboration.
Happy New Year to our incredible community!
