Clue HQ Warrington: The Dungeon of Doom

A fun game with multiple objectives! Great dungeon theming (aside from a slightly incongruous filing cabinet) and a great variety of puzzles with clear signposting and nice physical locks. A few confusing moments - there were a few number locks with coloured wheels which seemed to indicate the answers would match up to colours but didn’t; one padlock was VERY stiff and the key wouldn’t open it until the fifth try, some jiggling and wasted minutes trying other locks - which I wouldn’t have tried until the host told me that key was for that lock so it wouldn’t fit any others; and two codes were very similar so that I accidentally opened the wrong lock with another code and we then got confused as to what the other code actually was! Feel like it would benefit the game to change the code as we were told it’s happened to a lot of other teams! There was also a pre-labelled ‘do not touch’ lock which we were told didn’t work, so it didn’t seem like it had recently happened, so it would have been nice if that was fixed. But good fun overall and a good room for beginners! 

Once again imprisoned for a crime I did not commit!  Dungeon of Doom is normally a 3 player minimum, but we talked them into letting us play as a 2.  This is a split start game where one played is imprisioned and looking at it, there is only one puzzle that definitely needs two players whilst the third is unavailable but there is a lot to do here and not all of as straight forward as you might think.  Theming is good and once again we had a lot of fun playing this game.
