Launch on November 11, 2020!

Mad Experiments: Escape Room launches on November 11!


[h3]Chapter 3 will come out the same day! (for free, of course)[/h3]



I'm very happy to release the third Chapter of Mad Experiments. It's a fascinating universe to create, and I'm happy that the success of the game allowed me to keep adding content for free.
I have listened and understood the feedback you all gave me on Chapter 1 & 2, and it influences the way I'm building Chapter 3.
In the coming days, I will tell you more about the lore of the third room and share a sneak peek at its design.
In the meantime, make sure to save the date of November 11 and wishlist the game if you plan on buying it!

[h2]Gamescom starts now![/h2]
As you may know, today, Gamescom, the biggest videogame event worldwide, starts now until August 30.
Thanks to Indie Arena Booth, I was able to build a virtual booth where you can interact with some weird characters in a mystical forest, check it out here!

There are also many other indie studios with amazing games, make sure to go around, I've seen many projects, some are very impressive, I'm sure you will discover your gems :)


Stay sharp (and tuned) (and safe)!

This is my first time at Gamescom!




Gamescom, you know the biggest video game event every year? Well, this year it's online, and PlayTogether Studio has been selected to be part of the Indie Arena Booth!

[h3]Here's a pic of the booth (more below)[/h3]


The booth is filled with little characters that will tell you interesting things about the game. Online events will also be organized, check out my Twitter to get the latest!

Chapter 2 is available now!

Chapter 2 is now in the game, for free!


[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]


Explore this mystical room where you are trying to restore your memory, with the help of Hildegarde. New atmosphere, new puzzles, and a new chapter of the story of Hildegarde, all for free!

This room is way more mystical and mysterious than the previous one. It feels like you are outside, but actually, you are in your character's head. With the help of a new character, restore your memory to wake up and escape!
I went with an atmosphere drastically different from the previous one, bright and peaceful, with a strong connection to Nature. I hope you will enjoy!


[h2]Thank you x1000 for your tremendous support![/h2]
Without you, this adventure would not be possible! Shoutout to everyone who sent their feedback, reported bugs, wrote reviews and helped me to grow on social media! You are awesome and I'm glad to have you by my side
[h2]What's next?[/h2]
I will add things that I did not have the time to add before the release of Chapter 2:
- In the coming days, the versions for Mac and Linux will be out!
- New languages: Russian, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Portuguese, German and Polish!
- New secrets & achievements for both rooms
- Bugfixes and comfort features

[h3]Enough talking, more thinking! Let's get in there and kick some as...puzzles! :)[/h3]

v1.58: Japanese translation and bugfixes! マッド・エクスペリメンツ:エスケープ・ルームへようこそ!


As usual, first of all I want to thank you for your reviews on Steam and comments on Discord. Your feedback has been amazing, you (really) liked Chapter 1, now I want to blow your mind with Chapter 2.
I'm currently working on more secrets, harder puzzles, and polishing the mind-bending atmosphere I want you to experience.

[h2]MEER now available in Japanese![/h2]


For the Japanese speakers out there, that would be awesome if you could try this update and tell me what you think about the translation. It's very important that the clues are giving the right information in every language, or it could ruin your experience.



The translator and I have been very careful to respect every aspect of the game so I hope the result will suit your expectations!

Other languages will be added in the coming weeks: German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Traditional Chinese, and Korean!

[h3]Patch Notes 1.58:[/h3]
  • The entire game and menus have been translated into Japanese
  • It's no longer possible to drop items while crouching
  • Fixed Pause menu UI not displaying properly for some people
  • Fixed RELAX MODE text helper position
  • Network bugfix: Changing mask now works if you join after a player changed its own mask
  • Reduce size: Remade every clue textures + added compression
  • Fixed a typo in French translation
  • Fixed some typo
  • Various under-the-hood improvements related to Chapter 2
  • Updated Networking framework


Thank you again for your tremendous support!

Stay sharp!
