A

2 escape rooms

The scenario contains multiple rooms, most of which hardly fit 4 people. Some of the material was so used that you could see the answer to the riddle scratched on it; some of the mareriel was broken (i.e. a flashlight that was needed in one of the rooms). No one was monitoring our progress and we waited in the room several minutes after the allotted time, and the staff was not particularly nice and didn't show any enthousiasm about their job or about the games. Overall, not a very good experience. We will not be going back to that place.
