value for moneyoriginalgreat hosting

Another great room from Crypt X. A seasonally themed room with clever puzzles which kept us guessing. There's a lot to do for just two players so this might be better for larger teams. We found one spatial puzzle impossible to solve and even the host who had created it struggled to explain it afterwards so I don't think it should have been included. Oh and the room was very cold too. But we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon and were proud that we managed to solve all but one of the puzzles. I look forward to returning to Crypt X when they've opened their new room.
