House of Tales: Checkpoint Charlie

Venue is tourist central in Berlin and catering to that market - although we like to play games with a local theme where possible so it was fine from this perspective. An easy game for the most part although some logic leaps required which I think we would have failed to make without prompts. Set design pleasing and they have done well with a small space (although one side of the first room is a large glass window to the street which is a bit strange). Admittedly we did this game as timing wise it fitted with another game we wanted to play at the same venue but found various elements of this room pretty frustrating. If you want a game with a local flavour in Berlin, book Go West at The Room which is far superior. Not terrible, but not a venue I'd rush back to given the other high quality offerings available in Berlin.
