Espionage

it was fast paced and action-packed, more heart thumping than what I usually play. it was on the short side, and it was disappointing to hear we had "unlocked two secrets" but not have the staff person be able to tell us what secrets we unlocked. I have a feeling that the "secrets" and the scoring system were just part of an automated rubric, and my experience of this short adventure would have been improved by knowing what things we found or what bonuses we tripped. all in all it was a fun time and I'm not sad I did it.

Not our favorite experience -- One of the challenges seemed to have a bit of a glitch, and the lack of having a real "game master" wasn't something we really liked, especially when info seemed necessary due to hiccups. Overall it was entertaining, but we prefer "regular" escape room experiences, it seems.

This was an okay game. For us, it was comparable to Tomb. We enjoyed Drago's Castle and Deep Space more. Five Wits is an escape room-like experience. They say you have 30-45 to get through the 3 rooms of each game. Our team of two finished most of the games in under 30 minutes. These games are much more task-based than puzzle-based, and each task is timed. There are no hints available. If you cannot complete a task/puzzle, it will eventually time out and you will need to move on to the next task or room.
