This was a great room with a variety of puzzles.  I really liked that there were different levels of success with this one - as a team of 6 we were able to solve everything but if we usually play as a smaller team and then we may have solved the basic level but not the more advanced way. Either way it was a great room.

A nice room, very well maintained, some nice automated stuff and technology, and some nice surprises. The puzzles were very logical and well signposted, we finished this witihout a single clue in 48 minutes. Im not sure if it was easy or if it was just so logical that it flowed easily. It felt challenging, had a good time.

Great sense of development as you progress through this game and a few lovely surprises as well. We really enjoyed how creative some of the puzzles felt and they really utilised props from the theme perfectly. The only downside for me was that some of the latter spaces didn’t have as much of a wow factor in terms of set even though the puzzles were still good.

Initially entering the room I felt the room was a bit basic, but what a surprise I was in for! Very good room with lots of development and very clever clues. Paradox rooms tend to have a ban on red herrings, so everything you see is there for a reason....
