My hair stood on end, a shiver raced down my spine and a lump came to my throat. It was my time. This is my moment. Bleary eyed, I managed to scramble to my feet. It was the final call for all the actors to assemble. One hour until showtime. The lights flickered and then went off. I can hear the music playing in the distance. I can picture thousands of eyes waiting for me, waiting for my performance. This is my moment. Yet, I am here locked in my dressing room with the door bolted shut.

originalpoor hostingplainquite easy
A room that was severly hindered by its building and location. It wasn't immersive enough to fully enjoy the content and dive deep into the puzzles. More than I've ever played before, you could just tell it was simply posters and props in an old corporate waiting room (and potentially bathroom). This also wasn't helped by the lack of room music & subsequently being able to hear the hosts in a room across the hall.
There were some challenging puzzles and most were enjoyable but some required further explanation to understand their inclusion.
Slightly disappointing compared to how good LockedIn's Leeds counterpart is.
One for fans of musicals! Apart from one sticky padlock and one point where we thought we had completed, only to have to reset (our fault, not the room!) We enjoyed most of the puzzles in this room, and there are plenty to complete.

family friendly
Family friendly room a good soundtrack and a chance to be a pretty good room, but felt like things were just randomly thrown together, its non linear which to me always suggests you can't be bothered to think of a flow of the room, and one REALLY frustrating puzzle at the end that didn't fit the theming, and was eventually told how to cheat it (whats the point then?).
Like I say, chance to be a good room, but felt a bit 'meh' after playing it. My opinion of course.
I’m a theatre nerd and the theming of the room excited me before gameplay. However, I’ve been in hundreds of dressing rooms in my time and not once have a seen electrical props similar to the ones you see in this room.
It’s fun to complete don’t get me wrong (even though we were promoted to cheat it) but do they belong in the setting your supposed to believe you’re in? Nah, complete immersion breaker for me.
