The two coins clinked together in your pocket as you stumble down the cold pavement. Yesterday, you were sleeping on the cobbles of Museum Gardens, icy winds smashing against your face. Today, you’ve been told you’re the heir to a huge inheritance, left to you by an old lady across the road. This may sound like a rags to riches fairytale, but before the celebrations begin you must prove yourself worthy. There’s just one catch. The court has authorised the demolition of the property. You have an hour to find the riches before the house and your dreams are reduced to rubble.

Amelie was a great host. However, the set itself felt tired and failed to capture my imagination. The theme and narrative felt a bit weak. It had some clever puzzles ideas which were fun but sometimes didn't quite deliver or fizzled out before we managed to solve them. There were no huge "Aha!" moments and the final reveal was a bit limp. It's not all bad, but there are better rooms out there in my opinion.

The room story tries to tie in the local area. Some nice puzzles but not the best room. However the experience and host themselves were fantastic. Whilst I was using the bathroom prior to the game, my husband mentioned it was my birthday and the host hid some chocolates and a card in the room for me to find. Lovely touch! Thank you
