We really enjoyed this game! It only takes place in one office room, but that didn't impact it at all for us - still lots to find and interact with physically and via a computer interface. Even more impressively this is the same space used for Director's Cut but it felt very different as a game, because of how the story unfolded and how it used the space in quite a different way.
It made good use of Case Closed's signature style of asking questions to ensure you genuinely understood what going on in the story and had used your brain to think about it!
If you're in Edinburgh, absolutely do Radio Nowhere and Murder of Max Sinclair as a higher priority than this game but this game is great value and still felt like a proper escape room. Plus the best hacking we've seen in any escape room!
We did this and Director's Cut (as well as the other bigger games) all in one day, which was a bit intense but great, especially with some downtime in their boardgame cafe (Secret Solstice). If you only do Deep Cover or Director's Cut - both are on par with each other but we slightly preferred this one due to some of the surprises and interactions but tbh - do both!
