broken techpoor hosting
I was hoping to really enjoy this game after it was so highly rated, unfortunately it was complete opposite.At multiple instances we were disappointed and at 3 points we were literally told by the host "sorry guys, just serving at the bar so I haven't been watching" 🙃 when asking for a clue, absolutely diabolical.
Tech (or button pressing) didn't happen in a timely fashion and lead to moments of frustration as were told to go back "and try again" and suddenly the item now worked.
We also skipped the end of the game (due to tech malfunctioning), and when asked about it, the host was clearly on damage control.
We were offered a discount as we had problems - turns out this was just the returning discount that everyone is offered, which felt like a kick in the teeth.
The cherry on the cake was the host asking for a positive review on TripAdvisor.
Overall wouldn't recommend.
