I didnβt like writing reviews like this. Iβve been wanting to play this game since talking to someone who had just played back in January 2020. My first two attempts failed as the room wasnβt working when we arrived at the venue, this time the room was working but I wish it hadnβt been,. Break Free took over the location from Clue HQ over a year ago and weβd played the former A-1-9 some time ago and I noted then how tired the game was.
The game starts with a split start (the GM told us that a previous game had failed to even get out of the cells!). They say this is a hard room and to get out does feature some maths puzzles and I would argue outside knowledge to properly solve what you need to, couple that with a calculator that doesnβt work and we were able to get out in just over 20 minutes.
Then into the main room and there was next to no hints where to go next. We made some progress from thorough searching but the sign posting was none existent. This room was incredibly tired, from the clearly no longer used boxes on the wall, to so many things. I canβt recommend anyone playing this game in any way, or playing any Break Free games as after my experience here and elsewhere they are running tired, broken games into the ground with little to no thought for the player experience.
