Fantastic! The live hosting was brilliant and our host had a great presence. The puzzles were challenging -- not too easy and just hard enough to make us feel good when we were able to solve them. Used 2 clues and that was fine!
Well worth it and should be played!
Well done, Alex!
Escaped just in time!
This creepy room was our first remote avatar game. Played with telescape and zoom.
Not much humor in this for us - maybe it depends on the host. We felt that a lot of the time was used on video/audio.
We felt that everything went very slow but that is probably because we are used to be active participants in the telescape platform rather than having to direct one person to solve things. Not sure this format is good for us. Could be a culture thing. We both felt bad directing the avatar - we wanted to ask what he wanted to do :).
We liked the drawer puzzle and chalkboards and really did not like the computer puzzle. It felt out of place.
I really love the games that give you a creepy vibe, but you can also have fun and laugh at things while going through the game. The storyline and puzzles were fantastic.
Owen brought the character to life! There were spooky moments when I thought I heard noises in my own home and gasped. Truly felt a sense of dread throughout the game. The puzzles are challenging, unique, and story driven. The performer's zoom camera POV is supplemented by a digital 360 view of the room to help players familiarize themselves with everything in there. This made the experience feel very similar to an in-person escape room. I'm afraid to turn the lights out now...
Highly recommend and I can't wait to book the next chapter!
The team has really enjoyed it. We did not manage to finish the game because it was too difficult (it was the first escape the room for some participants) but everyone had fun.

This story line was really good. It kept us intrigued the entire time. By incorporating the audio concept of storytelling with puzzles, it made us feel like we were not just playing a regular puzzle solving game but were really part of this horrible nightmare. We looked forward to solving each puzzle since we're always rewarded with another development in the story. It almost felt like opening a different chapter in a book....

Theme-wise, it might not been as "nerve-wracking" as some I've played in England or even the Netherlands, but it still conveys the right feels - especially if you happen to know that the game is played in Mystery Mansion's older building, which is next to a funeral home, and that some employees actually refuse to work there at night, believing the place to be genuinely haunted.
