Remember Lewis Carroll, Professor Potch’s favourite author? Well, he’s in trouble — again! It’s now 1871, eight years after Carroll suffered an accident that threatened the existence of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and our intrepid time travelling volunteers were sent into his brain to help him remember all his ideas for finishing it.
This time around the problem isn’t a lack of ideas; it’s how to put them together. Carroll has come up against a pesky case of writer’s block while writing his second novel, Alice Through the Looking Glass, and it’s your job to fix it by travelling between regions of his brain and lighting the sparks of his imagination. Be quick about it, though! If you don’t manage to get rid of the block in time, Alice Through the Looking Glass will remain uncompleted…forever…

Enjoyed this room and the strong Lewis Carroll theme played through in both the decorations and the puzzles. The premise was to open and move through various doors and the entry room had something like six doors in it. We spent the whole game like we weren't working fast enough which made it feel very intense because we hadn't realised that the majority of doors were for decoration only!

Curiouser and Curiouser is the sequel to Time Trap's previous game Imaginarium. There are any number of Alice in Wonderland rooms available, but Imaginarium was unusual in combining Wonderland theming with a section set inside Lewis Carroll's mind. The sequel doubles down on that, with the premise that the author is suffering from writer's block, and needs you to enter his mind and unlock his inspiration so that he can complete his second book.
The decor here is colourful and quirky, with sepia...
