Permanently Closed - Extra Extra: Starlet Slain on Sunset Strip. Listen up, Gumshoe. Hollywoodland is a black and white place. The Boulevard chews them up and spits them out. So look like alive because tonight you will get justice for the dead. And by the way — There’s no need to adjust the color. This is the hardboiled 1940s, Flatfoot. You’d better get used to it.

The theme of this room was really fun and well done. The entrance to the room is a big "wow" factor. The designers made smart decisions using a few pieces of tech for interactive and exciting reveals. The rest of the puzzle flow was still sharp, with some excellent puzzles that yielded answers for Gen 1 locks.

Unique room theme with some fun puzzles. We had some reset errors but weren't too bothered by them. Friendly game masters. Overall a good room especially if you live in the area, but not a must do if you are only in town for a short time.

Gameplay

First room was super fun, second room had some issues, but overall we enjoyed ourselves and the puzzles.

Love the black and white theming

Definitely one of my favorite themes for a room. It’s got unique puzzles and will definitely challenge your mind a bit, in a good way. Everything is in black and white, and it’s cool to step into a room where the only thing in color is you. Some nice small twists with some things, and the story is worked into it nicely. One of my favorite stories for a room actually. I don’t recommend for new players but they make that very clear.

Gameplay

Fun, nonlinear.

13+ for sure. Some tricky puzzles and theme has to do with murder so probably not best for the small kids.

The theming on this room was nice. Similar to the jungle room at this location, there was one very cool puzzle element that I really enjoyed. There was one very fiddly puzzle that I definitely didn’t enjoy, but my partner loves the mechanics of (if they were applied in a different/better way). At one point, you’re informed that information you need will be delivered at a particular interval, but in reality it takes much longer. The GM told us they were aware, but there was “no way to update it.” A few minor tweaks would make this room even better.
