441 escape rooms
Another great room from Escape Nation, unique, multilayered puzzles that are just the right level of challenging for experienced players. This is a ‘collect as many as you can’ game, with 4 out of a total of 8 needed to ‘win’. We managed to get all 8 with just under 10 minutes remaining, it was really good fun and recommend it.
Gameplay
Linear at the start and then very non-linear with lots for all team members to do. The challenge was clear and while it wasn’t instantly obviously how to solve particular puzzles, there was enough around for us to be able to works things out independently by using our noggins. I love games like this where you get the satisfaction of having to stop, think, and solve, rather than ‘oh yes, I’ve seen that before, it’s…’ which often happens with a lot of rooms under your belt.
Atmosphere
The set was lovely and beautifully constructed and presented.
