What a special room. The entire experience was so cool as you start in a actual van! The puzzle was so related to the theming and some of it was funny as well. The room is mainly linear

Funny and tense. I wasn't keen on the significant use of the phone though (I'm autistic and find speaking on the phone very difficult) and the parts where you had to be silly, but luckily my team-mate was happy to take on that role. I was very nervous that my intermittent poor mobility would cause issues with having to be fast but it all manageable. Liked the use of the van as a prop. Thank you.

Difficult to keep a straight face throughout the experience- lots of fun interactivity and all in-keeping with the story. More of an experience heavy room than puzzle heavy but really didn't matter. Our GM Oli was also very lovely 🙂

Liked it a lot again - plenty of opportunities to be silly, some clever puzzles, flows really well. Perhaps a bit too much time spent on the phone where no one else could really do anything.

Fun with the kids. Loved the hiding, even with very few places to go

Such a funny room. Played with two kids who loved the hiding element. The phone element may be hard for people who struggle on the phone but the kids were more than happy to play along
