Fun game for solo play. I haven't tried with others yet, but it helps me keep my mind active with the puzzles and trying to find the tokens throughout

I got hooked on playing escape room games on itch.io a few months ago and bought Escape Simulator to keep the obsession going. This game has satisfying mechanics but I don't think any of the puzzles are actually any better than in the ones I played on itch.io (which is fine). The puzzles are good, though. I'm glad that they go beyond just finding a code for a lock; you actually have to solve the code. I like the icons that show you whether an item is useful; those are the only thing that save the puzzles from being tedious. But, they also make the game feel more linear. When I load into a level, I scan every item and ignore the ones that don't have an icon. I don't even pay attention to the environment, which is sometimes the most interesting part of an escape room. I might have enjoyed the puzzles more if there was no timer. The timer made me rush through, which probably caused me to get stuck in certain areas because I wasn't thinking clearly. It could keep track of my time without showing it to me and making me panic.

Posting this for visibility. Game still works on linux/steam deck, if you had it installed before the update the version you had was the native port, now that it isn't available you can't launch it, but the windows executable still works under proton. Select the game from the library, go into properties, into the compatibility tab and click the button that says "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool", then select the latest numbered proton version from the list, after that it will install the windows version, but it will launch with proton without issues. Once valve updates the verified tag you won't have to do this but for now it's the only workaround. Also, pretty good game, looking forward to the sequel.
