I’m sure you’ve all played Escape Room, a scenario game that ranges from simple indoor unlocking to live action NPC cosplay, and has also been particularly popular in recent years.

That’s why it’s been particularly popular in Europe and the US in 2017, and has even led to a wave of related themed films. For example, Saw and Interdimensional Killing are all about a group of young people who go to play an escape room game and encounter it, so the sense of immersion is particularly strong.

The most famous of these is the 2019 film Escape Room, released by Sony, which stood out for its high level of special effects and mechanism design. At the time it was said to be the first film to be released in cinemas as a movie in the form of an escape room game.

Recently Escape Room 2 has arrived, with the producers of The Fast and the Furious franchise on board. The film is currently airing in North America on 16 July and is now available to watch on foreign streaming platforms, but is said to have two different endings. With a 7+ rating on Douban, word of mouth is pretty good. The film isn’t exactly scary, but it’s certainly exciting and hunting, and I’m sure it will be introduced for domestic screenings.

Before you can’t watch ‘Escape Room 2’, you can review ‘Escape Room 1’ on Hulu Video, and there are more horror thriller movies, welcome to search for Hulu Video acronym on Dangbei Market to download and watch.

The most important thing about Escape Room is the level design, today we will take a look at the main 4 levels in this movie, how in the end can we crack the levels and escape from them?

1. High Voltage Subway
This is the first level, there are a total of 6 people in the car, with the underground was passed high voltage electricity, the first level “high voltage underground” officially opened. There is an old-fashioned coin machine inside the car, displaying the number 9, which says “All false advertisements must be removed”.

The code for unlocking the machine: find the missing 9 letters.
We found that many of the words in the advertisements were missing letters. The heroine thought that 26 handrails corresponded to 26 letters, so she pulled down the handrails to get the corresponding letters, but when she pulled down the handrails, the voltage inside the car would rise.

2. The Deadly Aurora Array

Because someone stepped on the organ by mistake, they only had 10 minutes to crack the organ to enter the vault door, this level was super exciting in its urgency. The level of decryption is also very strong, chess grid + clock + combination lock rotation + money world metaphor.

Unlock the code: there is a key in the lollipop and blank banknotes after opening the key as well as the door containing the photocopied paper, find the correct path without triggering the laser by overlapping the photocopied paper and the wall tile pattern.
The key was found in the lollipop and 5 people split up to try to open the safe. Someone opened a cabinet full of diamonds and cut his hand trying to pick them up, and 1 person found a cabinet with empty banknotes.

A clue was found that in order to open the ATM machine, one would need to send money to a dead relative to get the code. Sending money to a dead relative might be called “blood money”, so the group put blood on the banknotes, and the code appeared and opened the ATM machine.

But then the world clock on the wall starts to turn, and the group analyses the clock as representing the direction and the minute hand as representing the number of tiles, for example, 12:09 is nine tiles straight ahead, but which tile is the starting point?

The heroine found a pattern on the wall with the same distribution of tiles and an arrow pointing to the third tile from the left. So the tile forward route was opened, with some scares along the way, and it was good to see that the 5 of them finally went to the next level together.

3. Man-eating beach desert

The opening scene gives the 5 people a sense of warmth and confusion, which can be described as a beautiful taste of contrast, but in fact the most important thing about the third level is that the sand area will continue to shrink and you may eventually face being swallowed. It’s worth saying that this level is the most confusing, with two exits appearing, one on the room fridge and one on the lighthouse, but in reality it’s a different path. The most terrifying thing in the world is often not despair, but the despair that comes after seeing hope

Unlock the code: mannequin, eyes blocked by shells
Following clues, five people must find a boat to leave this beach desert and, with various clues, dig up a boat anchor on the beach. This is where someone was swallowed up by the quicksand in a rescue meal. At this point, only four people remained.

It turned out that the boat anchor was the key to the small room and the 4 men poured into the room to continue their search for clues. They found a fridge in the room with no power source, so after going through all sorts of things they found that the power source turned out to be on a mannequin with its eyes blocked by a shell, and after finding the power source and plugging it in, the fridge was an exit.

At the same time, the heroine found the moonlight above the lighthouse and discovered that it was another exit, so the 3 of them chose to go out through the lighthouse exit, and on the lighthouse, as 1 person went up too slowly, they were eventually swallowed by the desert as well. Eventually 2 people went out over the moonlight and 1 person went out through the fridge opening.

4. Sulphuric acid rain street

The 3 of them went into the Sulphuric Acid Rain Street together, where it rains acid to corrode their skin every once in a while. This is one of the biggest themes of this film and is one of the key points that many viewers give high marks to after watching it.

Unlock the code: after the phone rings three times, pick up the phone and the taxi door will open, sheltering you from the rain and with access to the next level.
It was good that the 3 met and found the key to open the roll-up door of the s shop under cooperation, not realising that it was a set and that there was a lock inside. At this point, acid rain fell from the sky and luckily the awning opened to protect them from the rain for a while.

At this point, the TV news broadcast said that the water was going to be cut off and everyone was advised to store water. The phone rang but the group couldn’t get in and couldn’t get to the phone, so the group combined tips to store acid rain. They finally found an acid-resistant bottle containing PMP and used the acid rain to unlock the phone booth, but when they got on the phone there was no sound.

As the next wave of acid rain was approaching, the heroine left the phone booth, which could only hold two people, and the other two threw an umbrella to the heroine, which, according to the instructions in the umbrella, had to ring three times before the phone could be answered.

As the rain stopped, the other 2 prepared to get into the taxi as well, but the taxi door was locked and the door to the phone booth was closed, so the two were left in level 4 forever as the next wave of acid rain came.

There are two final endings, one where the girl who built the secret room leads the heroine to her and saves her, and the other where the original female soldier from the first film turns out not to be dead, but still helps the criminals design the secret room and is entrusted to persuade the heroine to help them design the room, but in the end the heroine does not agree and escapes to call the police.

I wonder what kind of arrangements will be made in the third film? It’s worth waiting for.
