Great themed corridors and entrance area but the room itself was lacking a bit. A few unique puzzle mechanics and the ability to race other teams in identical rooms is a nice feature.

Same old, same old. A very similar experience to their first room. Good enough for beginners but experienced players will likely feel it's too expensive for a fairly basic experience.
There were some nice steampunk items to play with, a few red herrings, and one real ‘ooh’ moment that stood out, but the rest? We had to double check
We got locked in a laboratory at ExCeL London with just one hour to find out what monstrosities our shady colleague had planned. But was it… ExCeL-ent?
