Place of Light

A series of notoriously difficult escape games from Place of Light. It currently features eight games:
 * 1) Room Fake: A bedroom near a hill by the sea.
 * 2) Room Bath: A bathroom.
 * 3) Room Marine: A houseboat on the sea.
 * 4) Loom Above: A fancier bedroom.
 * 5) Loom Blend: A Japanese-style room in a Japanese-style countryside.
 * 6) Loom Custody: A prison cell.
 * 7) Loom Dawn: A darkened study on the top of a town.
 * 8) Loom Entry: An entry room by the woods.

The puzzles focus on either gathering pieces of a key or learning a code, followed by a tricky cipher and swiftly followed by the endgame.

The Loom games only feature one ending, as opposed to the two endings of the Room games. The Room games have the notoriously weird F-01s, rooms full of computers and a massive screen for spying on the room. How they could be in the environment, especially Marine, which is on the ocean, is anyone's guess. Blend, on the other hand, gives you the ability to keep going after the door is open, but rather than a true ending, you must find the three Stones of Colour, which bring colour to the outside world when all found.

The Place of Light series includes examples of:

 * Fan Nickname: Anyone who has played Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne will call the Samurai and the Princess Futomimi and Sakahagi respectively.
 * Solve the Soup Cans: Most solutions are there. You just don't realize it. Remember: Nothing is background. Everything is related to the puzzles.
 * Stock Video Game Puzzle: Anything but.
 * Wutai: Blend.
