Not as good as their other games but still good fun. Found it to be quite searchy like Little Miss Lock, but liked how it all came together in the end and the puzzles all linked to the story. Our GM was good at giving subtle hints instead of revealing the answers. Prioritise the other games at this venue first, but this is worth playing if you have the time available

Enjoyed this game a lot and is probably my favourite at Lock Academy. The premise was intriguing and well executed, plus the puzzles felt more logical. The set in the 2nd half is excellent and I enjoyed all the references throughout to films and games. It's clear what the inspiration for the game was, and I think they executed it fantastically.

This was my 100th game and was a lot of fun. Liked the 2nd half of the game more as it felt more logical what to do but the first half was still good fun, just a bit searchy. Particularly liked one puzzle involving the GM and thought that tech was generally well integrated. Another tense finale which gets the heart rate up

story-driven
A decent game, but more plain than others from Lock Academy. Puzzles were very search heavy initially but improved later on. Story was quite well done and made sense which is good to see. Tense finale was fun and the GM was good

Lots of fun. GM was friendly and helpful, plus the game was interesting and enjoyable. Puzzles felt logical and made sense with the story, just sometimes felt a bit search-heavy. The finale was cool, and I enjoyed a mechanic implemented in the first half of the game. Very good game

hi-techclevergreat hosting

Another fabulous room at the Lock Academy. Smart, hi-tech and very well hosted, we had an absolute pleasure escaping from the museum.

Perfectly located between Gare du Nord and Gare Montparnasse, it's a treat for us to go and do one of their room whenever we wait for our Eurostar 🙂

hi-techfunnygreat hosting

Outstanding game before our Eurostar back home. We loved everything about it. There was a lot of elements to search under objects, which isn't usually things we enjoy but the hosting was so well done and cleverly implemented in the game that it overshadowed any tiny tiny issues with the room.

Thoroughly recommend it! There is a lot of tense moments as well that makes it feel like a strong 60 minutes. When you think you're at the end of the game, something new pops up. Brilliant!

Loved this so much - a very full on game, very beautiful and with a great final puzzle which really kept us on our toes. Will definitely revisit and play more games with Lock Academy when we are next in Paris.
