Family enjoyed it! The theme felt tacked on and the puzzles didn't have much variety. Ultimately, the goal is to unlock a series of lockers, which was a very exciting concept for my 8 year-old. Decent challenge and a decent way to spend time, but not a great bang for the buck
Gameplay
Very linear. Good flow to keep novices on track, but this made it a bit too easy to guess/cheat to keep moving
Atmosphere
Atmosphere was fine. Setup was generic and theme wasn't really leveraged in the story or game flow. I wouldn't call it bad, but it wasn't anything special.
Customer service
GM was friendly and passionate. A bit awkward, but fun!
Particularly interesting or different
No
Story
Story was just kind of "there"
Difficulty
Medium
Nothing mind-bending. Lock didn't open with one of the first puzzles which set us back a bit, but it popped open on a later attempt (likely user error)
Ideal number of players
4
Best for 2-4. There aren't many parallel tasks, so lots of standing around a single point
Scary
Not scary
Minimum age
6
8 year old helped on a couple puzzles and enjoyed opening locks. Any experienced kid as young as 6 may be able to contribute
Live actors
No
Physically active
Not at all
Accessibility
Some elements may be placed too high for someone in a wheelchair to interact with, but it actually felt more accessible than others
