Rooms to explore, items to combine, characters to talk to, and puzzles to solve — woven into a story. The classic adventure-game toolkit, built visually with no coding.
EscapeMaker is built for escape games first — and an escape room is a point-and-click adventure. Rooms, inventory, dialogue, and puzzles are exactly what the engine does best.

You don’t script an engine. You build the rooms and wire the interactions — navigation, inventory, dialogue, and puzzles come ready to use.
Build scenes, link them with drag-and-drop navigation arrows, and lay them out on a visual room map. Zoom into details with close-up popups.
Pick up items, combine them into new ones, equip a tool, and use items on the world — including puzzles that need several items together.
Talk to NPCs with named, portrait-led dialogue. Define a character once and reuse them across the whole game.
Nine configurable puzzle types block the way until solved — combination locks, wires, jigsaws, sliders, sequences, and more.
A visual event system (20+ triggers, 60+ actions) drives everything: click an object, use an item, solve a puzzle, and the world responds.
Variables and flags track what the player has done, gate later scenes by what they’ve visited or carry, and chain events into set-pieces.
Animate objects, fire particles, transition between scenes (fade, slide, iris, pixelate), and score it with looping music — plus an Intro Wizard for a cinematic opening.
Publish to the EscapeMaker Portal in one click, or (on paid plans) export the whole game as one self-contained HTML file to host anywhere.
Nothing here is a “coming soon.” These are the same tools that ship thousands of escape games — pointed at adventure.
Bring the world. The adventure toolkit is already built.
Escape rooms are point-and-click adventures, so yes — the same engine builds broader adventures: more rooms, more characters, deeper inventory, and a longer story.
Yes. Combine items into new ones, equip a tool, and use single or multiple items on objects to trigger events.
Yes. A dialogue system gives NPCs names and portraits, and reusable characters let you define someone once and use them everywhere.
As complex as you like. Variables remember choices, conditions gate scenes, and events chain together — no scripting.
Yes. Add as many scenes as you need and connect them on the visual room map.
On paid plans, export as one HTML file. On any plan, publish free to the Portal.
