This is a fun game with plenty to keep you busy. It’s not particularly high tech but is a good, solid game that we enjoyed playing.
Gameplay
There are a good mix of puzzles, observation is key. Hints are delivered in a quirky way that is in keeping with the theme. The ending was a nice ‘aha’ moment.
Atmosphere
The set was a basic 1980s/90s classroom with ‘old school’ furniture - it was exactly what it needed to be.
