The flow of this room just didn’t make a lot of sense. Lack of story, and puzzles that didn’t have much in the way of cluing led to a very non-linear experience, which is normally fine, but you have no idea of what to do next. Running back and forth between rooms that have seemingly nothing left in them seemed to eat away our time, which we spent more frustrated than actually solving puzzles. Also, there were several puzzles that involved the same four colors, which made it confusing to determine which solution went with which puzzle. It’s like they tried to make it non-linear, but ended up making the game super confusing instead. The GM boasted of only 20% success rate, but that’s not really a good thing, in my eyes. It looks great though. Set is awesome.
Gameplay
The flow of the room wasn’t too great. Extremely non-linear, which is usually fine, but there was a superb lack of cluing. Very hard to understand what goes where- LOTS of puzzles using the same four colors. We wasted lots of time on puzzles because we couldn’t distinguish whether clues applied to that particular four color puzzle.
Atmosphere
Excellent set for the budget- looks very good.
