L'Antichambre

"Ouch, my head hurts
- Where am I ?
- Hello ?
- ...
- Man, am I thirsty
- Hellooo ?
- Can I at least get a glass of water, please ?"

L'Antichambre is a Kafkian roguelike adventure,

in homage to the 1997 horror movie, "Cube".

Tips (SPOILERS):

1) If you were put here, in this wack-job's idea of a puzzle, then their must be at least one exit. It would be utterly pointless, otherwise... Right ?

2) Watch out for moral. L'Antichambre will test your brains as much as your nerves.
Anger and Fear will slowly rise each time you witness a trap going off. And the more time you spend in this colorful cube-shaped hell, the more chances you have of completely loosing it.

3) Find strength in numbers. In order to survive the machinations of L'Antichambre, look for other experiment subjects such as yourself.
Always check adjacent rooms before moving on,  and double check corners by panning the camera (left and right keys).
Not only will other people have more boots to throw around, but each has his own abilities and perks. And working together might just be the key to finding the exit.. If there even is an exit. (Shut up, Kevin).

4) Each party member contributes to the group's survival in a different way:

• John the cop : his brutish ways may spark conflict within your group, but his confidence helps keep the others' fear in check.
   
• Helen the doctor : you never know when you may need a doctor, especially in a trap-infested maze. Helen raises the chances a party member has of surviving a trap.
   
• Jacques the escapist : He's escaped 7 maximum security prisons. Jacques can spot some traps without using a boot. A useful skill, for sure.
   
• Maria the student : She's good with numbers. After a few rooms, she might just figure out which ones are trapped and which are safe.
   
• Kevin the office worker : He's a nihilist. His unwanted commentaries and general gloominess have an impact on moral. On the up-side, a lifetime of cynicism has made him pretty much stress proof.
   
• And Sophie... Well, Sophie doesn't say much.  She's mostly content doing math puzzles and word games. Might even help Maria figure out some traps.
