immersivequite easy😨creepy
I thought this was a really fun theme for a room, that just fell a little flat. As a team of 5, some of us at times did feel like we weren't doing anything except watching others at some points. And we all came out of it at the end expecting more. The puzzles in the first room were great and very well done, and if it had been that level across all parts then it would've been a much better experience. So if doing it as an experienced escape room group, do it with less players. 
I will give credit for booking the room, I personally dislike rooms where the puzzle is that it's dark. But Cryptology has an option when booking for an "after dark" mode where the rooms lighting is off and you must navigate using torches. We played with standard lighting, but I did enjoy that it was an option rather than forced. 
Slightly creepy first room, but nothing actually jump scary. Spooky not scary as they describe it.
