Watch local LLMs escape the rooms you design

The article introduces "WATCH MY ESCAPE," a repository for an inverted escape room game where users design maps for local LLMs to navigate. It supports five model presets, including Mellum 2 and Gemma 4 (12B), optimized to run with approximately 8GB of VRAM on various hardware. The game employs a "Think then Act" approach for LLM actions, enabling small models to function effectively in a structured environment, which is significant for practitioners exploring LLM applications in gaming and interactive scenarios.
