A woman by the name of Sarah Markham has been murdered in her apartment. The 31 year old was found dead in her home in the early hours of this morning. The police have arrested 6 suspects for this murder but as of right now we are unable to determine which one committed the crime.
You and your fellow detectives have been given the task of solving this murder with the incentive of a promotion if you are successful. The suspects have been detained for some time now and without any firm leads they will have to be released before the hour is up.You must search the crime scene and use the evidence you find to decipher the clues the killer left and solve the case.The halt in the investigation has the public worried that the killer will strike again. Fear is sweeping across London and everyone is asking the same question: Who killed Sarah?Can you solve the case?Overall rating

Not a bad room - bit of strange logic behind some of the puzzles. The mix of collecting evidence / opening locks was a bit clunky at times compared to other online only rooms, but we still had a decent enough time and will try their other rooms.
I was given this as a birthday gift and loved every frustrating minute. We had a few clues and probably did everything arse about face, but we got there in the end.
Took us 2 hours and 17 mins! I guess we are not the brightest! but good fun.
Enjoyed the online interaction...everyone could see codes being entered, etc.
Very good fun and gave us 2 nights of good socialising
Has a really responsive and collaborative system. The escape room is streamlined and hardcoded, which means clues that would be there the whole time in person only appear after you reach a certain point in the online version. But the pacing is still good, and the room has some interesting brain teasers.
ok
Great family game, really enjoyed by all.
Great fun! Brilliant lockdown entertainment.
Really good fin, intuitive clues and a decent difficulty level for everyone
Great fun to play online with socially distant friends!
What a great game kept us puzzling for a while with some different puzzles we had not seen before
Very Very good game
Took us ages but really good fun
Fantastic!
Very thorough! It took 5 of us an embarrassingly long time to complete so we definitely got our moneys worth! Great fun!
GREAT STUFF
So clever! Thanks for making this so enjoyable - this must have taken so long to set up - it was fantastic.
Brilliant nights entertainment, great when you need something to do
Fun online game with great clues.
Proper fun for all the lads
Fantastic. Really enjoyed it. Just like being in the room!
This was very entertaining and they did a great job of setting this up. Clever puzzles, some left us scratching pout heads but when we got the answers it felt like a solid achievement
Good game
Kept us entertained and challenged us hugely!
Really enjoyed this, took us a lot longer than it should though
We needed to take a pause in this one - not usual for us. Missing one single searched item and that could not be found through the hinting system. Made it a bit of a frustrating room to play.
It was very lock-heavy but the story was good enough. We liked the puzzles, but there were too many possible answers and that made this a bit painful for us.
It was fun but took us way too long - probably better if you are more people in the room.
It was ok, it wasnt much fun, more stressful than others ive done. Sadly not as user friendly as others as well
This has been a great way to connect with family taking a day to do the game, with tea and lunch stops. When you live a long way away from each other it is great to spend time doing a challenge.
Initially we were confused, but once we got the hang of it we had a great time!
Tricky but we managed to solve it after 5 hours
used whatsap to communicate with other team members whilst playing,
enjoyed
3 groups of us and it was hard but so fun. Great team bonding. We used Zoom to chat but would be good to be able to have a text chat function for certain things to make it quicker or if Zoom decides to have a tantrum. All in all though I would recommend. Thanks!
Excellent - Technology is great really nicely done - love doing real rooms but at the moment this is scratching the itch nicely 🙂
Great fun, but some of the clues were more interactive which would have been easier to solve.
This one's perhaps the least 'immersive' game at LE but we loved it as we just clicked with it and felt like mega geniuses all the way through.
A few clever puzzles in this game. But it had that very frustrating characteristic of Gen 1 rooms that you didn't know which lock each combination was for, so it was hard to know if your solution was wrong, or if it was the wrong lock, which was magnified in the online context. I needed quite a few clues since the logic didn't really flow for me.
This was an okay room but we felt it didn't really work very well as an online format.
We really enjoyed this room, there were some fun puzzles we hadn't encountered before
