Some really cool puzzles, really nice props but think the actual room could be bit better. Definitely need more then two people to do the final challenge as with two it’s incredibly hard as the props are faulty anyway. Could have been more puzzles as easy to do in 50 minutes

This could have been a really good room but a vital piece of tech wasn't working for us. Our host was really nice about it but it did disrupt the flow of the game. Some good puzzles and a cool wow moment later in the game though.

story-drivengreat hostingquite difficult😨creepy

Great room - not quite as good as its sister room in my eyes. One rather tricky skill-based puzzle toward the end of the game brought it down for me - thankfully my teammates persevered with it and we got out but had I had to do it myself I would have got very frustrated. The rest of the game was fantastic - not as varied as the other room, but still really fun and creative. Recommended.
