Rags to…more rags
This was my last room of 2024- it’s a shame I didn’t end it on a high.
Story
Find a dead old lady’s riches in her house before it’s demolished.
Puzzles
I wasn’t keen on the puzzles. In a word, hotchpotch.
Mise en scene
Three B’s: Basic, Boring, Bland. Nothing to see here.
Final Comments
Not worth the money- even with a discount.
A room that was severly hindered by its building and location. It wasn't immersive enough to fully enjoy the content and dive deep into the puzzles. More than I've ever played before, you could just tell it was simply posters and props in an old corporate waiting room (and potentially bathroom). This also wasn't helped by the lack of room music & subsequently being able to hear the hosts in a room across the hall.
There were some challenging puzzles and most were enjoyable but some required further explanation to understand their inclusion.
Slightly disappointing compared to how good LockedIn's Leeds counterpart is.
Illogical puzzles and a lots of wear-and-tear hidden by darkness in the room. The storyline also isn't particularly clear, and all the health and safety information was mumbled by the GM. Would not recommend - there are much better options elsewhere in York.
Bit boring really. Host was nice but we completed it and didn't even realise it was the end. We expected a little more. The host just came in and we a bit 'oh, we did it?'
