Permanently Closed - Your mentor Agent Z.E.N. has disappeared while working on a high level mission. You and your fellow new recruits must use the skills he taught you to find the thumb drive holding the top secret data before it falls into the wrong hands. If you're skilled enough, you might have time to solve other cases ZEN was working on and really prove you're worth as a secret agent. Unless you get caught!

My partner and I had previously done The Inheritance and The Sorcerer’s Curse at the location and wanted a chance to do Agent Z.E.N. before it was going away - I would recommend catching it before it's gone. Although there isn't much there story-wise, the puzzles are varied, pleasing and logically clued, the set well differentiated and expansive, and (this goes for all their games) the staff/GMs are great at reading the room and nudging without overhinting. The Valentine’s duck promotion was also very cute!

My wife and I got notice that this room would be going away soon... we had so much fun with the Inheritance and the Cellar that we wanted to see it before it was gone. This was all we could handle with just two of us! Lots of puzzles and interesting challenges. I'd say go before it is gone!

Thanks so much for the review, jd43. We're glad you got the chance to play before ZEN disappears. We hope to see you for the other games (and more soon to come).

Wow! An amazing experience was had by all! The sets themselves were worth the price of admission. You can tell that the owners used to work out in Hollywood. Beautiful decorations add to the story and do not detect or add like red herrings. The puzzles were varied and challenging. I really didn't think we were going to make it. I can't wait to try the remaining rooms.

I have a sneaking suspicion this is by the same people who did the Roomination room that used similar props. I remember after they closed, we were at Lock & clue doing the green room and someone had mentioned they were coming in to do a room. We had done the original room and it was out of this world. This is a similar room that contains the essence of the original, but changes stuff based on space and making sure it felt fresh and unique. It's still an awesome experience that I highly recommend to puzzlers of all experience levels. They explore some unique puzzle concepts that we haven't seen elsewhere, and the centerpiece of the final room is still just as awesome to see.

Overall room was fun , however there were some physical mechanical issues with some of the puzzles.
Gameplay
This is a new room and while it is fun and has merit it requires refinement. The room has places players can write to figure out solutions to clues, these should be reset and erased for each group. There were instances where this did not occur which resulted in confusion and wasting of precious time. Additionally, there are manual manipulation and mechanical elements to some of the puzzles which require refinement to work properly. The final puzzle is particularly fiddly and vertically challenged or persons with mobility challenges will struggle significantly or not be able to complete the puzzle. Overall the room was fun and if you finish the main objective you have the ability to complete side quest which is great value for the money or if you have larger groups
Atmosphere
Atmosphere was good but there were mechanical issues which impeded the solving of some of the puzzles timely. One element was very fiddly. Room could use some refinement.
Customer service
Staff was great - they made accommodations for us arriving late do to scheduling miscommunication.

Did this room with my brother and niece. There was a lot more to it than we initially thought. Puzzles were fun and challenging. A couple things weren't working as well as they should (mostly time wasting including the final one, which gave less time for the bonus challenges). This is one of those score based instead of time challenges. Time remaining, plus bonus problems for score. We quick and immediately figured out two of the bonus puzzles so they didn't count, but really didn't care about the score as much as doing the puzzles themselves. Everyone including my pre-teen niece had a great time.

Light sensor for final puzzle wouldn't register. And knobs for one of the controls wasn't registering at first. Eventually, after we wasted nearly 10 minutes on the light sensor the GM came in and tried it themselves and couldn't get it to work. They claimed they would subtract some time, they didn't as I kept time on my watch though had a similar claim of a time subtraction on a different one of their rooms.
