Mark as done to rate

At his peak, King Durin was a very distinguished king. He ruled over his Dwarven kingdom with an iron fist; a kingdom of fantasy which was famed for being built entirely underneath an isolated mountain. “The King Under the Mountain”, a title bestowed upon to him by his grateful people, reigned supreme for many years, until one fateful evening, when a terrible curse overcame him, corrupting his empire. The halls, once filled with the sounds of merriment and laughter, became filled with an eerie silence. It wasn’t long before the spiders within the walls took over, and Orcs occupied the labyrinth of mines in hopes of making use of the gold ores which were left behind. This darkness seized the mines, and his once prosperous kingdom became lost to time. The forgotten kingdom became the subject of many tall tales and folklore throughout the land. Whispers of a treasure still remaining under the rubble and rock fascinated the nearby towns, but nobody dared enter the treacherous stronghold - until now. Your band of brave adventurers, a battalion of treasure hunters, have come seeking this great fortune despite the dangerous reputation of the stone keep. Unbeknownst to you, your quest to gain such wealth is just the first footstep in what is to be the greatest adventure of all time. Your party of ambitious treasure hunters heads for the caverns undaunted, unprepared for the true hazards that lay on the road ahead. Dare to be TRAPPED?

Durin's Curse had a really cool theme, story, and setup. I was very impressed with the tech and the creative vision behind some of the puzzles. The theme was emphasized at all stages in all of the puzzles, and it made the experience very immersive. There was another part of this room that was particularly unique, but I won't spoil that; however, it was a very cool element to add to a room about the Dwarven kingdom. There was a wide range of difficulty within the puzzles, some being super basic and others being quite difficult. I'd say 3-4 people would bring a good blend of ideas for this room without causing everyone to step on each other's toes. There was a fair amount to do, and I found there to be quite a few red herrings, but that's normal for Trapped. Their style of puzzles is also just more difficult for our group, but they are still super well done and make sense after getting some help! Good flow and story, Trapped always thrives with their stories and immersion!
