Escape Rush: Botanist Manor

The newest room from Escape Rush where I previously played Tokyo Lab. This room got announced to open this week and rather last minute we put together a team and travelled to Brussels. My inner voice must have channelled me to go here, I think…

The welcome area was really appealing (like last time) and our game host was really nice! I really enjoyed it this way without being pushed into the story too early. Nice introduction and briefing!

The story of the room is really something different in so many ways. It’s original, layered, woven into the puzzles and yet still understandable. Every time you think you know where the story goes, you probably don’t and how great is that?

The puzzles are so much fun! I absolutely enjoyed them, and,in my opinion, they fitted into the theme as well (maybe not all of them completely but that’s debatable in my opinion). Some puzzles and tasks made me feel like a child again just playing and doing things which feel fun. Through the puzzles they try to tell you the story really emphasises some key elements which were important. I really liked that!
