    I had no experience playing Jubensha prior to this and I had a lot of fun. If you enjoy roleplaying--and even if you're roleplaying curious--and if you like mystery games, either escape rooms or table top games like Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, you'll probably really enjoy this. I definitely want to play their other Jubensha experiences. It's just the nature of Jubensha, but one thing that keeps me from playing more games is how hard it is to find a specific number of adults and get them to actually show up at a set time. Maybe in the future, they'll be able to accommodate last minute switches, but I can understand how problematic that would be from an operator standpoint. My one gripe is the Dream Machine. For a Rabbit Hole experience, it was underwhelming. I had dreams of projection mapping or more custom built scenery. It was... not that. It did add to the experience, but it felt below their typically market-defining standards. The props, with the exception of one, seemed superfluous. And even that one was a little too plain, or small, or just a little off for really capturing the imagination. At $80pp, I would do it again as a special occasion with the right group of people, but I can't recommend it for everyone. If it cost less($65pp?)--or, strangely, if it cost more (for a more enhanced Dream Machine experience and maybe some adult beverages thrown in)--I could see myself coming back more often with a wider range of friends. But if roleplaying slightly edgy Agatha Christie style mysteries are your thing--you'll love this.
