This room is definitely extremely tired and quite linear. The rooms were pretty bare and nearly everything was used in the puzzles. I think that there was definitely some leaps of logic that were too high. The time left was displayed on an iPad propped up in the room and the hint system involved a staff member physically coming into the room.However some of the puzzles were pretty fun and the tech involved was sometimes quite good. The staff were also absolutely lovely and enthusiatic. Overall though you can get much better value for money elsewhere!

We thought that the production value was high but as an actual experience it wasn't all that fun and some of the puzzles needed outside knowledge or a fair bit of googling which I didn't like. There were too few puzzles. If anyone knows how to get the lantern to work please explain it to us
I appreciate it's designed to be set up by someone else as a host (which we didn't have) but I don't think that would change too much.

This game was absolutely incredible and huge, and easily had some of the best decor/set dressing I've ever seen. I loved that there was a main puzzle/mystery and then extra treasures to find as almost a side quest, so we were kept busy right until the wire. We had enough to do in parallel with 2 groups working on different things. We had a few 'near misses' before we got the answers but everything made sense and the hint system itself was also a delight. Our host was so lovely and clearly enthusiastic. 

There is not enough good things to say about this room and I would say it is a 'must play' for anyone!
