The setting is whimsical and expertly made. The rooms riddles are mostly tech based and quite thematic. We really enjoyed our time inside, right up until the last riddle which had some tech problems and wouldn't complete despite entering the correct sequence multiple times. Our GM had no clue what to do to help!

Very nice set but the game was hampered by an awkward cluing system (text to speech rather than a live response). Also, it was very frustrating that our GM couldn't tell that we hadn't solved a particular puzzle yet, so couldn't solve the puzzle she was trying to hint us on. Also it seemed like there were some technical issues. Unfortunate, since it had potential with a great set and some nice tech. Definitely need at least 4 players, I wouldn't go too far above that though since you'll be in each other's way.
