Insomnium

We were told during the introduction (before starting the game) that it’s non-linear. With that in mind, we thought we could tackle more than one puzzle at a time. Nope. We tackled a puzzle when it wasn’t the right time to do it: as a result, we solved it, but not at the right moment. In our minds, we’d finished it. But it didn’t trigger anything, because it wasn’t the right time to do it. A glitch in one of the puzzles caused us to waste a lot of time. The GM gave us the answer over the phone (by the way, that’s a strange system for receiving clues). We had to remember the answer without knowing where to apply it. They told us it was their newest game. I was really surprised by the quality of the puzzles—it felt like a game that was at least 2–3 years old. Finally, I tripped over a piece of the escape room’s structure. Be careful. There were two of us playing the game, and it was pretty cramped. And with just two people, it’s a bit intense. I’d suggest at least three people, but you’ll be packed in tight (due to lack of space).

A very disappointing game for a place like À double tour—there aren't enough puzzles, and the ones that are there aren't very well thought out. The decor is disappointing, and the room is tiny. There were a ton of glitches that caused us to lose at least 15 minutes; without them, we would have completed it. Really lower your expectations if you go—it feels more like a low-end company than À double tour.
