I really liked this game. However, the most memorable part of it was the very first ‘puzzle’ not working for us and questioning what we were doing wrong for almost 7 minutes before we were told to use a lot of force (which goes against everything we’ve ever been told in every other escape room… like ever). Oh well… we didn’t escape and it’s the only one we haven’t escaped. Kind of sour over it. I do not like the fact that you don’t have a timer going… and it didn’t feel like we had been in there for an hour when the ‘end’ came… looked at my watch after we got our stuff and it had hit an hour a few minutes after I grabbed my stuff. That felt a little cheap… not sure I would return just based on that. We were one puzzle away from solving the entire thing. :/
Gameplay
Gameplay was great after getting though the first part. We solved the initial puzzle immediately only to question ourselves over and over because it wasn’t ‘working’.
Atmosphere
Love steampunk and the industrial atmosphere did not disappoint.
Customer service
The staff was nice… it was just one guy. I didn’t like leaving all of my belongings in a crate at the front. We are from the states, so maybe that’s common? Only ever having done one room in the UK.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
Very cool ‘end game’.
Story
Story was fun and unique.
Difficulty
Hard
This was not a particularly difficult room… a couple things I wasn’t sure the purpose. Solving puzzles only to lead you down a dead end with nothing…
