Great puzzles! You had to figure out and remember multiple things to be able to escape, which makes it a little more challenging than some others. It was non linear so me and my spouse could work separately at times.

Museums from all over the globe have noticed subtle differences in some of their most renowned paintings... The conclusions of the museum's own investigations have determined the artworks are not, in fact, the originals, but rather clever forgeries. How and why they were swapped remains unknown. That is why they have hired YOU. As private investigators, your firm has received an anonymous tip that a white van was seen speeding away from the National Gallery in Central London all the way to this specific address... Can you investigate this English flat and draw up your conclusions before the Con Artist paints the town red... with you?

Puzzles were mostly on theme, but I didn't click with this one. The flow seemed a bit random, and puzzles were old school making no sense in the world we were in ("how convenient the bad guy left us all these clues in the form of puzzles for us!") The story twist at the end was fun.

Great room and great theme! We escaped and had a decent amount of time left! Would recommend 2-4 players!

The two of us really liked this room, and we were within one puzzle of finishing. If we had had a third person, we would have gotten out. While the artwork was not center, the art world was in the set at all times.

Only drawback was that the GM got distracted for a couple of minutes toward the end, so we had to wait for a hint.

Definitely an accomplishment to get so close with only 2 players in that room. The Con Artist is a tricky little lad... Thanks for your kind review!

8.0/10 Very Gen 1 room, but still fun! Puzzles made sense. A few of the locks were left unlocked, but we locked them and solved the puzzles correctly. Some neat trains of thought. Would have like a little more creativity around the art itself.

Thank you for your kind review! And just in an effort to not confuse or misdirect, The Con Artist is a Gen 2 game with 3 tech puzzles implemented. Thank you for your kind review and we hope to see you back soon.
