DarkMaster Escape Rooms: Into The Reliquary

A great set, some unique elements, but nothing new or exciting in terms of the puzzle content.
You can hear every word of the team in the other game on the same floor.

This is a beautiful room, no doubt about it, with a couple of unique—and amazing—features that we loved. The puzzles weren't as strong as the decor, however, which was a shame. This is definitely something that doesn't need a lot of work to make it a 5/5 game. I'd say the puzzles were 3/5, but the two cool elements (one of which we didn't get to see in the game as we did the puzzle right the first time, grr) are worth an extra star. 

 Frustratingly, we ended up stuck because we didn't see one of the clues in plain sight, which was definitely an "us" issue rather than the room's - we don't tend to do well with search-heavy rooms. 

Half of the group actually missed out on the final room and were elsewhere when the other half "escaped," meaning we missed a lot and didn't get a real experience of escaping. This is probably an "us" issue, too, although there was an accessibility thing here—but apparently, that can be worked around if needed. 

Overall, a must-do room for the experience but don't expect to be taxed by the puzzles.

What a FANTASTIC room! So many unique elements  I haven't seen before! My number 1 in the UK. No spoilers obviously, just do it!!

There's no doubt that the set in this game is stunning. You enter the game and you are instantly immersed into another world. We were absolutely blown away, however the actual gameplay left us feeling unfulfilled. 

Search and find puzzles seem to be focus here. We're all for hiding items out of sight but risking injury to be able to attain them is maybe a step too far. Unfortunately it does feel as though the puzzles were a bit of an after thought and we just couldn't gel with them.
