Epic Escape: Illusion

"Illusion" begins with a highly entertaining illusion right in the intro. The game master did an excellent job. The game itself lives up to its name, even if most of the effects are no longer particularly extraordinary by today's standards. It is worth noting, however, that this game has provided reliable entertainment for many years. The set is well-maintained and shows no signs of wear. 

Many of the puzzles were quite challenging, though some required an excessive amount of reading, which slightly disrupted the flow for us. Nevertheless, we were glad to have the chance to experience this game before it is retired in November 2026.

The best introduction to a game I’ve ever seen, extremely immersive from the get go. A diverse range of puzzles that all fit within the magical world created. 

There was an excellent use of space and a good culmination to the story at the end  

For me one section was too dark to enjoy which impacted play and there was no way to increase the lighting, hence the lower score. Otherwise it is absolutely the 5* that other reviewers have given.
