Escape One Algarve

For us this was a great experience! The end puzzle had a lot of math in it (adding and subtracting many many times - nothing complicated) and it can be a bit tedious, but we are math people, so it didn't bother us. 

We did have a few "that is really cool" moments in this one. One with shadows and one with latin. That is not saying too much, I think. We really liked some of the decorations - they were a bit geeky. Fun. 

We took 2 hours on this in a team of two. We did feel that a bit of signposting pointing out when a puzzle was not yet relevant would have been nice. There was great signposting in some places, but because some elements gave you a lot of information that could be read in a lot of ways, this wasted a bit of time for us. 

Even using 2 hours we felt that getting out was too early. Ready for more.

The inventory was visible when looking at a puzzle and worked well (This game is built on telescape). We did have a bit of lagging problems, but that might just be our computer, since it only affected one player. Otherwise the tech worked well. 

Recommended!

Finding Atlantis was great fun. We loved the puzzles. The technical side worked almost all the way through (only problem was an intro video that took a long time to load for one teammember and they had to reload the game). 

The flow through the game was excellent and the story was engaging. Funny moments and aha moments all the way through. 

Just the right amount of puzzles for our taste to do in one go. The end puzzle was excellent and we thought everything came well together. 

Two puzzles had us stopped for a while - an anagram and a riddle, but we got there in the end.

Great experience - go try it out. Can't wait to play their other digital room.
