Good spacious room, bright in the large spaces. Was looking forward to theme of the room, not something seen before. Set design was ok, especially to make it have very high and low areas. Snow machine clearly wasn’t working properly after it was attempted after 30 minutes, left us all coughing actually, very weird. Overall the room was very basic, needed to be filled more with other parts, too much space really, no real reason why things were where they were, loved the hatch part, but some signage to set a theme as to what this hatch was meant for in a story would have made some sense and that is repeated in other parts too, and then inside only having one thing to solve and done. Unfortunately the more I think about it I’m more disappointed, especially with how much space was there to use, I think the story lacked, some puzzles didn’t match a snow theme, and not sure why shoes needed to be off as it was just a white outdoor style carpet, I’d assumed it was to be soft under foot.
Gameplay
Was ok and mostly linear
Atmosphere
Set design was ok, I see what they’ve tried to achieve in there, definitely some good elements, overall it was very spacious. Snow machine was attempted about half hour in, made a loud noise while running, not sure it did too much.
Customer service
This venue felt a bit more business like than customer based. We were made to wait for our room, told to fill in lap top and left to it, and then shared a briefing with another room. We do love our chats with GM’s of other rooms that take an interest in our history and how we work, we were only asked how we’d want any clues. One thing that was mentioned about colour number padlock and it was described how you may need to count something of a colour to get this (which is exactly the circumstance that we had to do) and didn’t need that prompt, especially based on lack of conversation prior.
