This is a sci-fi room with no padlocks or other types of physical locks, progress is made by opening keypad locked doors or using RFID equipped objects. We found it difficult to start before we found our flow and it's quite easy to overthink some of the problems. Host was excellently on point and gave us a nudge when we needed it. The story didn't quite make sense and it felt like a story for a different game but this was good fun.
This is was great day trip to Ikea.. Plain and boring.

Playing on a separate occasion, I'd agree with those comments, although I'd add in a note of appreciation for the game having more than one room, good puzzle variety, skilful and entertaining hosts, and a refreshing lack of frustration points - generally whenever you've solved a puzzle, it's clear that you've done so.
Compared to the Casino room I did at the same venue immediately beforehand, the game structure is more linear and the content somewhat easier. Experienced teams will find it easy ...
