May has arrived!

As we have reached another new month, it's once again time to have a quick look back at last month's highlights! In case you missed it, we rounded off our latest Build-A-Thon contest. The grand prize for this contest was a trip to Paris, which was won by none other than room builder Robin! But of course a lot more community rooms got published last month, so without further ado, here are our monthly picks for April!

A feast for the eyes and ears!

We love to see all the unique little ways in which the room builders from our community utilize the in-game Room Editor and Colors and Sounds All Around is a very interesting room indeed! For this room, BoomboxGuyJJ lets you explore the relationship between music and art through the use of color study. If you're willing to try out something totally different, then you should definitely check this one out!

The hunt is on!

Next up, we've got Join the Hunt by JetSkiAttack! This room based on the tv series Supernatural puts you in the shoes of a 'hunter' who is looking to become an apprentice to the legendary hunters Sam and Dean Winchester. In order to prove your worth, you will need to solve a case that involves multiple ghost sightings in a small community in Kansas. Good luck, hunter!

An unfinished masterpiece...

The Architect's Legacy by HashtagWarriors is another very unique room that is entirely focused on the art of architecture. You play as someone who's part of a group of architectural historians that gets the chance to visit the studio of the late Charles E. Whitmore, a prolific modernist architect. As you make your way through the studio, you will need to solve many puzzles to find the plans for Whitmore's unfinished masterpiece.

We all live in a yellow submarine!

Finally, we've got another excellent room made by GetOffMyBeard! In his latest room The Yellow Submarine you will be exploring.... well, a yellow submarine! Unfortunately, your vessel is stuck at the bottom of the sea and you will need to get all of its systems up and running again to make it back to the surface. No pressure!

Join our community!

And that's it for April! As always, we hope you'll enjoy these monthly picks as much as we did! Want to talk to some of the room builders from our community or just share your enthusiasm for Escape Simulator? Be sure to join us on our official Discord or on our subreddit. We hope to see you there!
