Logical puzzles and original story. Most of the puzzles were VERY easy which meant we’d finished the puzzles within less than 30 minutes. The GM was very quick to give us a hint within 1minute of wondering about 1 puzzles. Had to to say “no more hints please” which she did take on board. Out of the games we’ve played abroad, we did find our welcoming rather stale, very much a “sit down, wait there” as the door to the room was wide open which spoiled the original excitement. The flow of puzzles was spot on and everything made sense. This would be good for a young family to play. No big issues, just a general “okay, that was fine” experience. Unique ending which was refreshing after playing 200 games. We added this on last minute as we had done our list of tourist attractions. Also, as we entered the premises the door to the escape room was open so we saw it all before we even started which was a bit deflating.
Some really good features and clever ideas. Really good fun, host maybe gave us direction too early as we finished this really quickly!
