“I played the first Room game long time ago on the phone. I don't remember much of the details but was fascinated even then, thinking it was like a wild dream come true for any puzzle lovers. The Room 4 did not…”

“Another interesting entry in the series in terms of expanding the lore. The way the rooms were implemented and interconnected this time around was a nice evolution of the formula. All in all, if you like The Room series…”
“My feelings about this game are conflicting. On the one hand, puzzles have expanded more across the rooms, and makes for a more engaging puzzle experience overall. Also, while the story goes in a different direction, it…”
“This was a well done puzzle game with just the right amount of challenge and beautiful attention to detail in the art and graphics. The mystery was one of occult meets industrial revolution technology which fit very…”

“The whole series is great but this one has a completionist feel to it; sharp look and has great cultural rooms with much to see. The gameplay flowed nicely. Thanks dev team for sticking with the game. Highly recommend…”

“This is the best The Room and no one can say otherwise. Smoothest gameplay among the series, the puzzles are better, and all the dollhouse mechanic? That was the greatest thing here. I could play it over and over and…”

“Great Game! I will play it a few more times...”

“its good, reminded me of the first and second sequels, but it lack the depth in the third sequel, overall good sequel”
“Good game, a decent continuation on the series. It's a shame that they decided to go back in time to do a prequel rather than continue with after the third. Only thing I didn't like was that for most of the game glowing…”

“The Room 4: Old Sins is a puzzle game and the last non-VR game in the series. In this game you once again solve puzzles and unravel a subtle story, in this one less connected to the others in the series. The puzzles in this game are set within a single large dollhouse. You'll…”

— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“The Room 4: Old Sins is honestly one of the 5 Room games ever made out of the 5, but is actually in my top 2 (I like being a jester). I have a long history with the room so I won't bog down with specifics, I got the Room 1 when I was a wee lad and grew I love hate relationship…”
