Some deviant hiding spots slowed us a fair bit in this game but the puzzles were all solid and the theming was great!
Interesting concept to be able to run multiple different games in the same space. It did make our experience in Detonate 1 a bit more confusing but then Detonate 2 was more plain sailing as a result. Not as strong an offering as its former counterpart but some fun ideas throughout and one interesting ‘challenge’
Good blend of a bomb game with a museum game. Learned a little about the local area through playing too which was nice.
Really great theming and story running through this room albeit a little tricky to follow at times due to the reliance on audio. Good range of puzzles and some fun special effects along the way. Probably the strongest of the Immersion rooms but all are good quality and fun.
Great theming, some nice puzzles but a little on the easy side. We spent A LOT of time searching, faffing with a couple of red herrings. 1 puzzle was a little frustrating with the execution, delaying us when we wanted to get the answer inputted. Another component seemed broken and did not trigger what it should have. Right at the end, a prop had shifted so the 'key slot' was no longer visible, making it impossible for us to complete the room in the last few minutes.
Clue system wasn't particularly clear, seemed to be that the GM just rang through when they thought you needed prompting rather than responding when we clearly asked for help. I appreciate this is a fine balance but it wasn't explained before hand.
Overall, a decent room but extremely frustrating at times.
If you like creepy rooms you will love this room. I didn't like the theme partner loved it. There was some interesting puzzles, good use of tech, liked the theatrics, was a little jumpy. Found it hard to keep on top of the murder mystery clues but added depth abd made you focus on the storey.
Great room with and interesting theme inside a museum that is about to explode. Loved the dinasor and the water puzzle. There is a lot to do. We spent a lot of time on the first puzzle, which we got correct on our first go but needed a little guidance to where to put the answers to keep the game moving - a little push from games master would have been appreciated. The puzzles were interesting though.
Great story to this game also with it looking stunning with great details and clever tech
In parts it was very different and maybe a bit much for 2 players which are not pros
Your objective is to send the two girl spirits that was murder in the room over to the other side but also finding out who killed them and how
This leaves you with a lot of objects that is not really needed to progress forward which we got some what confused with which lead us to waste time on and not escaping
Apart from that this is a great game just bare that in mind
Great intro to this game with a good story the room it’s self is very detailed and looks stunning
Is kinda difficult in areas
We did have one tech thing that was broken which kinda skipped the last puzzle section which was a shame
Overall it was a great game
The owner of this palace was a great guy and funny
Nice set of puzzles, a linear format but done very well with great theming and host
Lovely varied set with a great intro, we just struggled a little to find our flow with the puzzles, a little too reliant on searching and moving objects for our preferences.
Another brilliant room from Immersion!
Great room! Nice to be in something so big. Everything felt very new and everything worked perfectly. Really good!
