Vibe's take

Immersive and steadily tense, paced by an unfolding story, satisfaction builds as each puzzle unlocks the next piece of the plot.

About this game

Gefangen im Varieté pulls players backstage at a variety show that turns into a real trap. What starts as answering a job posting for a performer ends with the group locked in an old storage hall, working through cryptic clues just to find a way out.
