Scholar's Mate
Critic Reviews for Scholar's Mate
Scholar's Mate puts you in a cramped scenario filled with pursuit and hard escape room puzzles to solve. While this sounds good, this game may not be for everyone, Pacing can feel uneven, and the constant pursuit can be aggravating when trying to solve multiple puzzles. Still, there's something fun here for horror fans and puzzle lovers, especially since the game only asks for $12.99.
Scholar's Mate is an interesting entry in the horror genre, blending an eerie atmosphere with escape room gameplay, but its tricky puzzles might not be for everyone.
Finding your way out of an abandoned asylum is always frightening, especially when an unexplained killer is hunting you. The puzzles are challenging and you are constantly on your toes because the enemy is lurking. Unfortunately, the complexity makes gameplay frustrating and the game isn’t long. For a short horror room experience, this game delivers a satisfying experience.
This is an indie horror game that has nothing to envy of others, with a constant degree of tension and puzzles at the level of the best horror Escape Rooms.

While the story left some threads loose and the relentless pursuing grew tiresome, Scholar's Mate conjures an unnerving atmosphere through its grim confinement. Deviating escape rooms and a gruesome antagonist make it a decent diversion for horror fans seeking a unique challenge.
