Rating: 4.5/5 - Super cool set with tons of tech, puzzles, and effects (it's my favorite here)
Pros:
βTons of tech with only a few padlocks, though they were used where appropriate
βSet looked fantastic and immersive, filled with custom props and electronics
βPuzzles were fun and fit the theme well. They're also challenging, but not too unfair or illogical. This was probably their hardest room.
βMultiple rooms to explore, it felt like an adventure
βMany tactile interactions, more than just pushing buttons (though there was a lot of that too)
βGreat use of atmospheric and audio effects
βThings were bright enough to not require flashlights
βSome interactions required teamwork
βGood flow with satisfying ending
βGM (Kelsey) was super friendly and helpful when needed
Room for improvement:
βThere was nothing to write notes on
βI'd prefer if so many of the puzzles didn't have written directions. They were helpful, just wish the puzzles were better clued so that they weren't needed.
We completed it as a team of 2, but I'd recommend 3-5 enthusiasts.
They allow single bookings if you call to book, but the GM may need to come in to help.
My ranking of rooms here starting with my favorite:

2. Ruins of the Mystic Temple (my favorite puzzles)
