I've only completed this one game here but I wouldn't do anymore. The room itself was ok but the clue system is terrible! You can't speak to the hosts directly and get given an iPad which has generic clues on it. Each puzzle has a number by it so you can find the clue you need on the iPad but it's completely generic and not tailored to what help you might need and once you use a clue it locks you out for ages before you can request another. We aren't a group that use many clues during escape rooms but when you need one and the clue it's specific its very annoying!
The three of us at a key point were clearly "lost" and not knowing what to do, and the watching GM did not intervene. We ended up all cross-armed, no help, and what we were stuck on was quite a logic leap.
It's good to play it in a larger team.

The Heist needs some TLC. The puzzles themselves are pretty good, and are of a similar quality to what I’ve experienced in other Escape Reality rooms. But the room itself looks like it hasn’t had much love for a while, which put a bit of a dampener on our suspension of disbelief.
This room could work for larger teams of 5-6 given the size of the room, though there’d be a bottle neck at the midpoint of the game for anything larger than four people.
