Temnorid: Escape
Escape from the watchtower prison.
A scout is caught near a village storehouse and locked in a cell. No weapons and no combat: read the clues, solve three puzzles, slip past one patrolling guard and leave by the service gate. About 10–15 minutes, played through classic fixed cameras. The text of the game is in Ukrainian.

About
Your mission failed. The patrol took your gear, and at dawn you will face the village elder. The guards are ordinary people doing their duty, and the prison is plain stone, wood and iron. You win by noticing the clue, working out the mechanism and choosing your moment.
The graphics are made of simple shapes for now: the game was built to be played first and polished later. There is no magic and there are no creatures in this episode.
Features
- Fixed cinematic cameras for every room, with smooth cuts at the doorways.
- Three fair puzzles in one unbroken chain: a cell latch, a records cabinet with symbols, a gate with a two-part key and two levers.
- One predictable guard with a visible loop, a pause at the window, and one hiding place. Being caught only sends you back a few steps; nothing is lost.
- Inventory with a key-combining step, a journal with the clues you found, and hints that arrive after you have been stuck for a while.
- Autosave, Continue, and a replay from scratch.
- Fully offline: no account, no network, nothing leaves your PC.

Scratches on the wall, a clay cup, a bent wire and a damaged latch.

Torches, a guard on the round, a row of barrels in an alcove.
C. The storeroom
A ledger, a cabinet of symbols and your confiscated pouch.
D. The service gate
A workbench, a plaque and two levers beside a locked iron gate.
E. The courtyard
Night air and the way out.
