Tinfoil Hats
A brilliant Groupon allowed my group (5 of us altogether) to embark on 2 adventures: this was the first of them.
Story
Track down a conspiracy theorist who has gone missing.
Puzzles
It borrowed some aspects from a game the room previously occupied (Secrets of the Upside Down) but the puzzles themselves were all new, incorporating visual and physical challenges.
Mise en scene
A touch on the basic side, but this was a conspiracy theorist’s abandoned home- in other words, nothing too fantastical. There was one small section in particular that I wasn’t expecting (and enjoyed!).
Final Comments
We set a new record by escaping with around a third of the time left. While 5 was a feasible team number, take one or two less people if you want a tougher challenge.
