Permanently Closed - While on a road trip with friends, a flat tire on a dark and deserted road forces you to seek help at a nearby farmhouse with a creepy, unusual couple and their ‘odd’ children. While waiting for the tow truck they’ve called, you go against your better judgment and drink the ice tea you’re offered – only to wake up in an unfamiliar room and chained against your will. The only thing you can hear is the family discussing how fun it will be to watch you escape – well, at least how you’ll die trying.

Teams are separated at the beginning. Room was good. Perfect for a 4 person room

The short cut is an interesting room with a well made story line and theme. The room has some cool puzzles and does a great job creating puzzles that fit in with the theme. That being said, the layout of the room is extremely weird, Perplexity does a good job of making use of the space they have available but it would be nice to see them create an actual set for this room, I find the lay out interferes with the immersion.
