Mark as done to rate

To win freedom, the mind must be sharper than the sword Step into ancient Japan, where the imperial emperor has ordered you, his most trusted samurai warriors, to defeat the evil warlord Tanaka Masamune. But be warned, Tanaka is no ordinary enemy; he is protected by a powerful curse that makes him invincible to even the strongest warrior. The only way to beat him is to steal the magic stone from the handle of his sword – but first you must escape from the dungeon his henchmen have thrown you into. You have one hour to break free and complete your mission; any longer and you pay – with a fate worse than death.

Really bad puzzles, boring and not much to do, only really one puzzle at a time. Marked as 4 star difficulty but it felt a lot easier than that. Would definitely not go back for other rooms

Nicely themed room, with plenty of automation - but very short for anyone but new players. Even with plenty of mistakes we escaped in 35 minutes. With a few more puzzles this would be a very solid room.

Fun and challenging puzzled which were well themed to the room. Frustrating as we were stuck at the start but were completely unable to hear the clues and support from the GM.
