You and your team are on a road trip when a terrible storm hits. You decide to find accommodation for the night, but only one bed and breakfast is available in the area. It is an unusual venue and the host makes it very clear that you're not to go exploring past any red doors. But what do you do... you go exploring... And this bed and breakfast makes it very hard to go back.

Our team of two played this room on a whim one evening, missing the younger element who often contributes to puzzle solving in unique ways to get us out of pickles. The GM warned us of the non-linearity of the room from the outset, and the room didn’t disappoint in this regard; we like rooms like this. Overall, good puzzles. Nothing outstandingly different but well put together, especially those that required many elements to come together to solve one puzzle. However, the storyline wasn’t particularly strong.
Gameplay
Very non linear in parts. Lots of going back and forth, piecing together information from all over the place. We can see why others don’t like this aspect in other reviews, but our opinion is that this is more difficult to program and makes the room more challenging and interesting.

Only in its non linearity.
Story
This was probably the weakest part of the room. In fact, we didn’t get a sense of reaching the end of the room and were surprised when the door opened.

Some text was very small and dimly lit. It was very difficult to see. One puzzle required physical dexterity to bend and reach a fair distance.

5.5/10 GM - Nick (?) was patient & knowledgeable about the game Non-linear room with a few red herrings. Not very exciting but moderately enjoyable.

After trying Murder in the Mob at the same venue, I went into this room expecting the same. However I think the puzzles in this rooms are genuinely an improvement and some of the puzzles are memorable with the mechanical elements. There was an issue however with the flow of the room, Sometimes you are given objects that are very hard to realise what they are used for. We received one item which was meant to be put in a very hard to see hole. There were also multiple occasions where the game master had to chime in and recommend which puzzles we had to focus on first. This seems very counter-intuitive especially when the room is advertised a multi-linear room. I think this room is better than a lot of Scram's room and probably the only rooms you're going to find within the Macquarie Park area. The puzzles in this room still make it worth playing for it's price point.

I usually like Scram's rooms but this one was different and we felt it lacked the usual logical sequence that Scram's rooms usually have. I didn't really feel like there was much of a story happening, if there was, it wasn't cohesive. The puzzles were good and our game master was fantastic.
