About The Midnight Museum
The Midnight Museum is an escape room where the family solves the puzzles together around one iPad or on the TV. You hid behind the mummy for fun, and now the little natural history museum is closed and locked. The lights are off, the skeleton creaks, and two yellow eyes glow in the dark. The guard has left a note on the exit door, but his key card has fallen down a grate.
You need to explore the dinosaur hall, the Egyptian room and the space corner. Along the way you sort fossils by age, search for golden scarabs with a torch in a pitch-black room, read Egyptian numerals on a sarcophagus, launch a rocket using a checklist and put the dinosaur’s bones back in place. Finally you have to find the code in the stars.
It’s a little spooky, but never dangerous, and there’s a funny explanation for all the noises. The game is made for teamwork: one person holds the light on the inscription while another turns the wheels. The help button gives three levels of hints, and the puzzles are new every time.
How to play
- Sit around the iPad and read the guard’s note on the exit door.
- Tap things in the picture to take a closer look, and switch between the dinosaur hall, Egypt and the space corner with the buttons at the top.
- Tap an item in the bag and then something in the room to use it. Tap two items in the bag one after the other to combine them.
- In the dark room, the torch shines wherever you touch the picture. Some puzzles need one person to hold the light while another solves them.
- Find the key card and the code, and unlock the exit door. Tap Help if you get stuck.
