Review by Anne expert
For us this was a great experience! The end puzzle had a lot of math in it (adding and subtracting many many times - nothing complicated) and it can be a bit tedious, but we are math people, so it didn't bother us.
We did have a few "that is really cool" moments in this one. One with shadows and one with latin. That is not saying too much, I think. We really liked some of the decorations - they were a bit geeky. Fun.
We took 2 hours on this in a team of two. We did feel that a bit of signposting pointing out when a puzzle was not yet relevant would have been nice. There was great signposting in some places, but because some elements gave you a lot of information that could be read in a lot of ways, this wasted a bit of time for us.
Even using 2 hours we felt that getting out was too early. Ready for more.
The inventory was visible when looking at a puzzle and worked well (This game is built on telescape). We did have a bit of lagging problems, but that might just be our computer, since it only affected one player. Otherwise the tech worked well.
