Very immersive room. Some really terrible puzzles and some of the tech didn’t work. Gamesmasters we’re watching several rooms at the same time so didn’t know where we were in the game when we needed a clue.

Locked up and chained up, you once again have 60 minutes until your captor returns to finish you off.  Some good puzzles with a nice flow.

Very effective creepy serial decor, sustained throughout, with plenty of gruesome touches (though without any true jump scares). One puzzle was difficult to see properly in the low light, but otherwise the game play was smooth and flowed well. Not for the super squeamish but  an overall very good game.
