Loved this room - lots of unique puzzles I hadn't seen before and a fun theme. Felt a bit useless as we were receiving so many clues but at the end it was revealed we had 11 minutes left... would have preferred the clues to come when we really needed them. Overall though really fun!

great hosting
Interesting reading the previous reviews as this game has clearly been changed since they played as we didn't have to google anything. This is a linear style bank heist where the goal is to escape with as much loot as you can. There are a collection of safety deposit boxes that you have to corroborate various documents to work out the combination. There's bonus puzzles and also the big one to get the gold bars. It's a good concept that's been done elsewhere but this is a solid implementation of it.

A fun room but a lot to get through for a team of two. We felt that a lot of information was thrown at you all at once! Build quality and effects are excellent and hosting, as expected at Cave Escape, was great! There are quite a few videos throughout the game which stunt play and frustrated us. This game can be lost even if you have plenty of time left and if I'm honest I still don't know how we made the right decision to save the world.

There were a few logical connections that we would never have made without the hints, which made us feel a bit lost. Also a couple of the puzzles are almost painfully basic. But a pleasant way to spend an evening. Cool integration of the online elements.

value for moneyclevergreat hosting
A cracking example of a bank heist room with a great number of varied puzzles for the experienced escape roomers out there! We did this room with my sister in law and brother in law and 4 minds really helped with the number of different puzzles towards the end of the game, emptying all of the lockers that we encountered. Our host was excellent! Really enjoyed the experience, you can always tell when a host is an enthusiast too as their heart and soul generally goes into the rooms they create, and this was no different!
