Iām a fairly experienced player (have played nearly 80 games), and this was hands down the worst room Iāve ever played. It didnāt flow at all. The puzzles didnāt really make much sense, and the GM was terrible. She gave vague clues that didnāt really help (and in some cases, she made it worse because her āguidanceā wasnāt correct/was contradictory). She seemed irritated that we even needed help at all. In most rooms, I rarely need to ask for any hints ā maybe one or two nudges and thatās it. But in this room, we needed to ask for help on almost every single puzzle. Also, the room didnāt have a timer showing in the room nor did it have any sounds that helped you keep track of time. So in addition to it being a terrible room with a terrible GM, you had to keep track of your time yourself. Avoid this place at all costs.
The props themselves were decent and aligned with the theme but that was about the only positive thing I can say about this room.
The guy who was working the desk was nice. However, the GM seemed super annoyed anytime we needed help. The puzzles didnāt make sense and didnāt flow well at all. Instead of helping us, sheād give us a vague, cryptic āhintā that didnāt help at all.
Particularly interesting or different
No
It should not have been a fraction as hard as it was but nothing made sense at all. Iāve played 70+ games and have seen a wide variety of puzzles, and struggled with pretty much every single puzzle in this room. Not because of its actual difficulty, but because it was such a poorly planned/executed room.

Not at all
Itās in the middle of a mall.
The website said to park between Medieval Times and Burlington but it wouldāve been closer to park at the food court entrance.
