Is this supposed to be a nightmare? You woke up long ago - in a dungeon of the dark forces and you slowly realize what situation you are in. You can just see how the guard leaves you to fetch the hangman. The secret brotherhood wants to begin the ancient ritual of human sacrifice in an hour, which has been going on for generations. This time you should land on the serving plate.
Surrender to this fate or manage to free yourself from this cruel custom before the first of you becomes one of the many victims.
But be careful: don't get caught trying to escape, otherwise the execution will be brought forward.
Every second counts to get a little closer to freedom ... or to the executioner himself.

Definitely in mid-tourist Berlin and perhaps catering more to the non-enthusiast market than some of the other venues. Fun enough but didn't leave feeling that we'd rush back again.

Nervous players shouldn't be too concerned about the game. The start uses some of the lea...
