Reviews by escape room review sites

We played as a team of 3 from different locations and I think this would be the perfect number to play an experience like this! It’s an exciting game with some really impressive storytelling to boot. Of course, our tech issues were a major shame, but I wouldn’t hold it against the game because nobody can control the variable of internet / microphone / general computer problems – it just meant our personal experience wasn’t as awesome as it might have otherwise been.

Overall, The Mermaid’s Tongue was a high intensity experience that had you on the edge of your seat up until the game finished. With their first experience making you question what just happened, The Mermaid’s Tongue adds even more answers and leaves you craving for the finale of the trilogy, being The Kindling Hour. With the new interface, some new concept of puzzles and keeping the story within the same universe, its all a recipe for a virtual experience that will make you want to experience all 3 adventures.
