It is the year 2060. Elizabeth is saying goodbye to her husband. They are going on a family trip, but Elizabeth must first finish a research project, so she promises to catch up with him later. A moment later, she watches her husband’s autonomous vehicle leaving the driveway, her thoughts already drawn towards her work. Another normal day — at least that is what Elizabeth believes.
The following morning, Elizabeth wakes up on her sofa. She is having a terrible headache and her home is trashed — turned upside down as if there had been a break-in. Although she keeps trying, she is unable to recall anything after the moment she left work the evening before. Elizabeth decides to use the memory scanner. It is the perfect tool for the situation! However, every technological advancement comes at a price…
In Escape Tales: Low Memory, players will delve into the stories of three characters and will uncover — step by step — the plot that connects them all. Prepare for three gripping story lines coupled with a healthy dose of plot twists. Escape Tales: Low Memory holds numerous surprises in store!

I play a lot escape games - A LOT! This was one of the worst. We even considered to stop playing. There is no good story at all. All the puzzles are really poor connected to each other. It feels like random events are taking place. Then there is the rulebook where they leave room for interpretation. A game like this shouldn’t. Really, trust me and don’t buy it.

Absolutely hated the hell out of this. We got close to finishing the last file and gave up on frustration from the awful writing, weak story, and clunky puzzles. This had completly turned us off of trying the other Escape Tales game we have. They're both getting sold. Won't touch this series again.
