A cool concept, took me a while to realise I was on a train (my fault) but we enjoyed moving through all the carriages!

A nice big multi-room set with plenty of puzzles to do, but I think my expectations were set a bit high by online reviews - most puzzles were simple code padlock based, I think I'd expected slightly more tech for a fairly new room

This room is so, so good! So many moments when we said β€˜Ah that’s brilliant’! 

Very original with lots of variation on puzzles and a good mix of locks and tech. Played this as a group of 2 with a 12 week old baby. We would normally play as a 4 and I think it threw us off as we had to have a little more help than normal even though this room definitely isn’t as difficult as the Book of Magic. Still absolutely loved it though and the set is so wonderfully done and immersive. 

Amazing hosts as always. So welcoming! Great communication and clues that were given on the screen were clear and quickly delivered.
