The Escapement Broadstairs: Atlantis

Unfortunately for me, this was a bit of a victim of the hype. It's a good room, don't get me wrong, but I actually think the other room at Broadstairs is better than this one!

This is a very physical room which was quite different, albeit it can feel a bit cramped if you have long legs like me! The space is quite small at times too and it's hard to get fully immersed when you can hear people entering reception for the other room...  

The design of the puzzles is good, but apart from one standout one, I don't think the rest is that unique - they are a variation of things I've seen before (especially at Escapement). 

Another let down is the videos... they are way too long and inauthentic, and really took me out of the experience. 

Gamesmaster and debrief were great though, so can't fault that aspect. 

All in all, the sets are great, puzzles are good, but it didn't rank that high for me as there are a few niggles I couldn't get past due to my high expectations. My partner really enjoyed it so maybe it's just me!
