My Younger Daughter and I Like a Browser Game Called Crimson Room

I haven't played very many of the games available on the Internet.  Far behind the times in my knowledge of such things, I stumbled upon Crimson Room today.  I spent a few minutes on the game and enjoyed it.  My younger daughter, age 7, saw me playing the game and asked if she could play as well.  I consented because I needed something to keep her busy while I vacuumed the floors.  Yes, I know that's a poor reason.

She didn't solve any of the "escape-the-room" games on the website (and neither did I), but she enjoyed herself.  I am very cautious about letting my daughter play games on the Internet, for I don't believe it's the best choice of activity for her most of the time.  Despite my principles, I do occasionally succumb.  After all, she saw me playing the game!

Here's a screenshot of the web page of Toshimitsu Takagi, the creator of the game Crimson Room.
