Unfortunately there were a few flaws with this room. This was a small game (Which we don't have any problems with), but there just wasn't anything else to back it up. I'll start with the positive. Our host was very enthusiastic and nice. However, the video intros were dull and poorly made, and the quality of the room itself was very lack luster. There were some nice puzzles, but mostly seemed thrown in and very handmade. My biggest gripe with this room was a safety aspect. Spoilers, but the game starts with you being chained to the wall. These chains are padlocked and you are told the games master has a master key. Which begs the question: What if something happens to the games master?

We've heard that the other rooms at this venue are better, so will give them another chance. But that health and safety matter needs addressing, perhaps with a carabiner emergency release?
