Overview
Visit the Escape Academy of yesteryear in Escape from the Past. This prequel puts players in control of Sandra Solange and Eel Barnes all the way back when they began their journey as students at the Academy! After a harrowing "accident" at an Academy sporting event nearly results in the death of Headmaster Horatio Windsor, he becomes certain that one of his faculty members is trying to MURDER HIM! Convinced that the murderer has eyes everywhere, he enlists Sandra and Eel as his undercover agents to investigate each of the suspected teachers. As the "accidents" keep piling up, players must successfully navigate (and survive!) five, all new rooms while piecing together clues to deduce the would-be killer’s identity. It's an Escape Academy whodunnit!

While the balance between story and gameplay seems more story-slanted, the DLC still does a commendable job of delivering a fun, yet short escape room experience.
Escape Academy: Escape from the Past is a fun murder-mystery take on the familiar puzzle action and it proves to be a lot of fun to solve.
