Really enjoyed playing this with my regular escape room group during lockdown!
Full of escape room style puzzles. So much fun! Can't wait for Part 2
Very well put together online sync game you can play with others over the internet. All players see the same thing, so no parallel play option. The graphics are nice, some hilariously bad jokes and nice puzzles. Not groundbreaking but very clever and neat game.
Awesome game. Lots of lateral thinking and easy to follow but fun instructions.
We'll definitely be back for part TWO!!

A collaboration from the escape room companies Bewilder Box and Eltham Escapes, Sector X is an online escape game where you must guide the robot B.R.U.C.E. through a series of puzzles. The new breed of online escapes is very diverse in style, and this one uses a custom computer interface with cute retro graphics.

Love robot jokes? This game had plenty! I love it when humor could be added to a puzzle game as it definitely eases the tension between the teammates during puzzle solving.
If I had a penny for every time someone told me I HAD to play The B.R.U.C.E. Project by Bewilder Box Iโd be โฆ Well โฆ A bit better off than I am now. Point being, this game felt like a long awaited rite of passage I needed to play. Having finished it, itโs not my favourite play at home game every but I completely understand why itโs on the pedestal it is. Itโs really UNIQUE and cracks a lot of problems of collaboration that other escape games still struggle with. A big round of applause for Bewilder Box and Eltham Escape Roomโs ingenuity on this one.
Sector X: The B.R.U.C.E. Project is a fun and quirky game that has a good range of challenging puzzles tucked under its belt. Its setup encourages communication and teamwork, and it gets that right in spades. The simplistic design betrays some solid puzzlework that plays well to its medium.
Iโd recommend this for work team building events (as we did it), and teams of 3-4 who arenโt too bothered about immersion and just want a good time.
