The planet is in the grip of an epidemic, people of all ages, races and backgrounds are contracting the potentially world ending virus.
After just six months of the first case in Papua New Guinea, the virus has covered (geographically) 80% of the world's surface and it is thought to have killed in excess of 1.7 billion people.
An effective antidote has been developed (NV31) and those treated within 7 days of contracting the virus have made a full recovery. The only problem is that the antidote was developed by Dr Nojus Zareckis in his laboratory in Lithuania. After producing around 100,000 doses of the medicine, Dr Zareckis and his entire team were slaughtered by rebels who broke in to steal the antivirus. The details of the research performed in finding the cure were encrypted and inadvertently destroyed by the bungling thieves during the raid.
Back in England, Dr Ruoff Nevesorezenin a close friend of Dr Zareckis, based right here in Ramsgate, was able to acquire a few of the vials containing ingredients for the life saving liquid before Dr Zareckis' untimely death. He also had the encrypted data stored on a hard drive. Nevesorezenin has been working tirelessly ever since to reproduce the formula in order to end the epidemic. Dr Nevesorezenin believes he has successfully replicated the NV31 antidote.
You and your friends having recently contracted the virus have been selected as ideal test cases for Dr Ruoff Nevesorezenin’s NV31 antidote but when you arrive at the surgery it becomes apparent that an unfortunate set of circumstances has occurred.
Can you and your team figure out how to get your hands on everything required to save humanity...
Your challenge awaits...

Tricky but interesting game. Can tell a lot of thought and time was put into the puzzles.

This room was fun and good. Some really smart puzzle that made me proud that I had done it. Theming was basic but good. 

Reviews by escape room review sites

A game that may not have had the excitement and pizzazz of some of its neighbours but also never put a foot wrong. The result was a game where you focused on the strengths - good puzzles, an interesting story and a pleasing sense of progress.

Unfortunately, this room is no longer in action, but we did enjoy it when we played, and thought we would leave a few thoughts about it! The decoration was quite minimalist, but went along nicely with the theme. As the space opened up, the game got more exciting as we discovered new places, which really helped to ramp up the excitement. One of our distinct memories of the room is a plant, and the dreaded searching! This was definitely something that slowed us down in this game – especially as we tackled it as only a team of two. We would have recommended this room to newbies to the escape world, but alas, it appears it is now…extinct (which is very sad, Real Life Games were lovely hosts with a passion for Escape Rooms).

Can you find the cure in time!
