Palace Games has discovered another secret inner-sanctum within the walls of the Palace of Fine Arts. This mysterious attraction premiered at San Francisco's World’s Fair in 1915, but was then immediately condemned for reasons unknown.
After an arduous restoration effort, Palace Games plans to reopen this attraction to the public.

beautiful
I will openly admit that I didn't get on with this adventure, I felt disengaged in the first section of the game and never really re-connected with it. But on reflection, and I have reflected alot on this game, it's just that repetitive actions/puzzling are just not my bag and I don't enjoy solving the same thing over and over.But don't let me put you off, the game is a stunning build, the detail is fabulous and the narrative is well woven into the adventure. There's lots of variety in the puzzles and the tech used make it feel magical. We had a great host too.

hi-techstory-driven
In their latest game, Palace Games seems to have decided to move past the "Great People of the 1915 Pan-Pacific Exposition" theme of their earlier rooms and onto something...more mysterious. They don't say much about the theme so I won't either, but suffice it to say that it is very different, and significantly more story-driven than any of Palace Games' other escape rooms. I found the puzzles in the room to be very well constructed, and it makes great use of both space and technology to create a wholistic experience.
