A nice little 4 puzzles in envelopes game typical of this company. The puzzles were quite good! 2 very quick and easy, 1 logic puzzle that took a little longer and one easish but nice observation puzzle. Interesting theme and a nice simple quick play for times when you want something for a couple of people to puzzle over.

family friendlyunusual hosting
Nothing wrong with the set design and the puzzles but this is the second visit to this venue and I find the hosts character really grinds on me but I see others enjoy this. I preferred the Legends gold room which was a newer room but again didn't enjoy the sarcasm and abuse when receiving clues and after the game had finished. I think if this performance ended when the room was finished and you had the chance to speak to the host in a normal manner this would not be so bad. If you are easily offended or if you are having a bad day and don't want to be told you are stupid then maybe avoid this one.

Another absolute HIT!! Well done Case Closed! We drove 4.5 hours just to play this room (as we loved Max Sinclair so much) and we were not disappointed! Theming, set, hosting, story, EVERYTHING was spot on! Don't walk, run to Case Closed now!

Another good room, no padlocks at all, no keys, no combinations or codes - which I find very refreshing. Everything was automated, lots of moving parts and motorised stuff, all which worked flawlessly. Good sound effects and music which all synchronised perfectly with the game.
Some good puzzles, creative and clever tricks and elements.
Why this venue does not have a golden padlock, I can't work out. This room and the alien encounter are both really decent.

A really great game, one of those that continues to surprise as you work through. Lots of unique puzzles, its clear the designers made an effort to come up with their own unique games, rather than be inspired too heavily by the more standard escape room puzzles.
Great host, and by the sounds of it, working on another room in the same building.
Surely a future golden padlock location.

Really enjoyed this room. Good theming, decoration and lovely puzzles. Just a real feel good room. Hosting was lovely and friendly. Highly recommend a visit! Nice location for a wander around the city of Ely too.
