Hellraid: The Escape Review | GameCloud

As a paid application, though, you’d hope for some replay value, but the truth is that unless you’re a completionist that has to have every crystal to unlock the extras, there isn’t all that much to go back to. I’d still recommend the game, however; whether you like puzzles, escapes, chills, or something to do on your coffee break besides read the tea room’s staple copy of Women’s Day from 1997, again. The game is best when putting on some headphones, and allowing yourself to sink into its bizarre world – only to then relish escaping from it! As the game only takes two hours to complete, its likely best enjoyed in short bursts during those anti-social lunch breaks, rather than in a single playthrough. You may only get several hours of entertainment out of it, but for an iPad game, that’s a pretty impressive feat – so long as you’re prepared to jump at imagined clinking chains for several nights after."
