Still, you decide to go looking for your missing friends.

value for moneycleverstory-driven😨creepy

Really well themed game. There are some irrelevant ghost projections which did make it feel a bit tacky/cringe, if these were removed i’d have felt more immersed/scared. 

Nice puzzles which did challenge us a little but nothing too taxing.

Hatte vorher keine Meinung vom Anbieter, und hab den Raum unterschätzt!

"Gruselhütte" trifft es sehr gut; gruselig war es allemal, mit kleinen technischen Spielereien und einer entsprechenden Story. Die Rätsel waren angemessenen kniffelig und Teamarbeit war ein wichtiger Aspekt!

Von der Lage mal abgesehen (in einem nicht sooo schönen Teil von Essen mit schwieriger Parkplatzsituation) war die Atmosphäre beim Anbieter sehr schön und angenehm und die Gamemasterin super lieb - wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! 🙂

detailreichschwaches ende
Vor dem Spiel konnten wir uns entscheiden, wer von uns Dreien in der Hütte angekettet würde und wer uns befreit. Warum wir allerdings in der Hütte gefangen waren, erschloss sich uns nicht. Für die Person vor der Hütte war die Situation ein wenig suboptimal, da er nichts von dem mitbekommen konnte, was im Raum vor sich ging.
 
Die Rätsel waren ganz ok. Keine besonderen Wow-Momente. Hier setzt der Anbieter auf mechanische Rätsel. Ein paar wenige Schreckmomente gab es. Richtige Schockeffekte etc. gab es hingegen keine. Leider war nicht immer klar, was genau zu tun ist und das Ende war etwas schwach. Die Detailverliebtheit des Raumes ist hoch. Nur selten hatten wir das Gefühl, in einem Zimmer zu sein.

Reviews by escape room review sites

You'd think that we, collectively as a culture, would had seen enough slasher movies to know not to approach the creepy old cabin deep in the woods, no matter how lost we might be - but that's what you've done, and good thing too, because in this instance the creepy cabin is a damn fine escape room.

As suggested by the website description and explained in the briefing, it's a split team start with some players starting restrained inside the cabin and the others outside, with part of the room be...

The design of the room is very well crafted. Very catchy and mystic. High quality pieces that match a cabin and high quality materials all the way around. From spider webs to old wood the room manages to bring you in the proper atmosphere. The little twist of the room that you will find out about there, really makes it special. Although not a big room, it manages to do it’s job of an abandoned little cabin.
Teamkommunikation ist gerade bei den "Aufmerksamkeitsrätseln" gefragt und wie diese Rätsel durch visuelle Elemente unterstützt werden hat wirklich Spaß gemacht. Gerade durch das eine oder andere visuelle Kabinettstückchen stieg man tief in die Geschehnisse rund um die betroffenen Familien ein.
