A Detailed, First-Person View of the Museum
The story behind Escape the Museum began innocently enough when Susan Anderson brought her daughter to work at the National Museum of History to share in an exciting, educational day. But just after closing time, an earthquake caused destruction on a massive scale. After making sure that Caitlin was safe, Susan returns to the museum to make sure no one else had been trapped and left behind, but her heroic intentions are compromised when falling debris knocks her unconscious.
When she wakes up--alone and in the midst of all the ruined displays--she can barely move. This is where you come in, standing in her shoes, with a first-person view of the vast museum and all the gritty, dusty destruction caused by the earthquake. Can you outsmart the security system that has come on? Save art and artifacts from the dusty, unstable displays? Find a way to reach your daughter for a happy reunion?
Sensitive Wii Controls for Navigating a Puzzling Journey
With 25 distinct adventure scenes and 12 different hunt-and-find areas to search through, there's plenty of territory to explore in this museum. And your Wii remote offers the control you need to solve a variety of puzzles, find and salvage priceless artifacts, and uncover exits that have been hidden in the chaos. Skillful players will even discover ways to access hints that help them on their adventurous journey.
When it comes time to gauge where you stand, a detailed map screen lets you check what percentage of the game you have completed and gauge your progress. You can also quickly view your accuracy as a percentage, the value of the artifacts you have saved, and the amount of time that has elapsed. All these stats add to the fun when you want to compete against your personal best or the personal bests of your friends and family.
Challenging Mini-Games
In addition to the main adventure narrative, this hidden object game includes two mini-games that add to the challenge of your missions. One requires you to locate pieces of valuable paintings and reassemble them as a puzzle. The other asks you to try and match an artifact's weight. Successful matching allows you to save the artifact in question and continue on to other rooms.
