Diner in the Storm
Why We Picked Diner in the Storm
The weather traps you in a diner, something outside is worse than the storm, and the door is not the hard part of the night. Convincing the other people to leave with you is the stated problem, which makes this a social puzzle rather than a straightforward chase. It ranks 153rd of 183 in Adventure with 526 plays, and the page lists no control scheme at all for it.
How to Play
Three things decide whether a run here goes well:
- Begin inside the diner and treat the other people as the puzzle; leaving alone is the easy path.
- Get the whole group to leave with you before whatever is outside gets inside.
- Work out what each person needs to hear, then try the exit once the group agrees.
Editor’s Note
A short escape story with an unusual bottleneck: the obstacle is other people. Nothing is documented about the controls, so expect to poke around and read the scene. For reference: 153 of 183 on the adventure shelf, 4.5 out of 5 from 10 ratings, and 526 plays.
