Another great experience from the guys behind time run. Brilliant intro and Immersive experiences and multiple rooms of puzzles, just some puzzles and frustrations let it down for us compared to their other experiences.

Gave benefit of the doubt at the time, but it seems the same problems exist 6 months later.
Bad and non-nonsensical puzzles, confusing story, broken puzzles/tech.

This was a fun experience, but for us at least it wasn’t worth the money and was over-hyped. Sherlock enthusiasts will probably love it, escape room enthusiasts will probably find it like Marmite
