Played this game using the closing discount, definitely one of our least favourite rooms out of the ones at Break Escape. Some interesting puzzles, but lots of padlocks and looking very tired (understandable that it's closing).
Our last game at Break Escape in Loughborough and it was a nice one. For an "older game", it still did well, it was well themed, some nice puzzles and overall a good room for both families and enthusiasts.
This room was unnecessarily dark and the lights provided were frustraingly dull.
That aside, the puzzles were good, some fun elements but we found it a little frustrating with the light situation however a solid game.
