The Turner family have always joked about Uncle Artemis and his eccentric ways.

A World traveller with a keen interest in relics from around the globe and a head full of steam, the family never understood him like you did.

News of his death has hit you hard, and while the rest of the family go about managing the estate, your only thoughts are with the single item he bequeathed to you, the key to his study.

That place was his sanctum, and where you most loved spending time with him. As a child it was full of wonder, as an adult the key you hold in your hand is the key to Uncle Artemis’ most intriguing secrets. 

With a heavy heart but a buzz in your soul, you unlock the door and step inside…

This has been my favorite telescape game that I've played by far.  Immersive, funny, original, and has fantastic puzzles.

Challenging, but oh so satisfying!  So much information all at once, it takes time to sift through it all, but bit by bit it all falls into place.  Really enjoyed it!

This was a fantastic game to play.  Had to do two sessions to finally solve it but it was great. Puzzles were very inventive and clever.  Definitely great value for money.  Can't wait to do another one soon.

Really fun game

Arj rated this:Rated between 25 and 25 out of 5

After playing Alice in Wonderland game online, we were looking forward this but found it to be a bit of a let down. We really needed a hint at one point but the hint basically told us to sue an item we didn't even have at that point so ended up sifting through all the hints to find something we didn't have and how to use it . 

As for the final puzzle, we're not entirely sure how they derived at that answer and actually found quite a few of the puzzles to be a little ambiguous. 

One other thing we found with this game was that you can still interact with puzzles after they had been completed. 

I can imagine this game would be better in person. its ok but not the best online game we've played

It's been interesting to see the progression of virtual games using the telescape interface.  This is a great implementation of a great looking room (can I play this for real when able?).  The story tells you that you have inherited the key to your uncle's study and you have to unlock the secrets.  Pictures are clear and the puzzles are mostly logical in progression.  One niggle I had is that it's not clear where the hotspots are in the 360 overview so you have to wave your mouse around watching for the icon to change indicating you have found a hot spot.  This is a lot of fun to play with some clever puzzles that require both deduction and a degree of thought.

cleverquite difficult

A really challenging game that was very satisfying to finish. Personally I like the fact that in this game (unlike their other Telescape games) you have to hunt around to see what's clickable rather than having the clickable elements pointed out with an icon. I don't think there was anything totally original in this game in terms of overall concepts (although still a couple of great AHA! moments) but it was a really, really good example of some things I've seen before done well or better. Would recommend.

Reviews by escape room review sites

We are big fans of the Enigma franchise and have played a lot of their games across a range of locations in the North of the UK. The Enigma Rooms seem to be run by people who are super enthusiastic about their rooms, often creating hand-built escape rooms which feel unique, fun and definitely challenging.
