Wrecked is both a very strong puzzle game and a powerful theatrical experience in its own right. From the unusual setting, to the transitions, to the highly original storyline, it was such an incredible game. There was a lot to do, and it wasn’t exactly easy - some of my favorite challenges innovated on escape room gameplay while also connecting with the theme in unusual ways. The final section in particular was one of my favorite segments of gameplay in an escape room due to its structure and design. The set and story were great in their own right - the junkyard set was highly unusual and made for some stunning transitions. The effects genuinely shocked me in some ways and made solving puzzles tense - especially towards the end. To top it all off, the game boasted a refreshing take on a horror storyline that subverted expectations - it’s easy to miss (we did) so make sure to ask about it! These games were a tight fit for us but Masterpiece was incredibly accommodating for us, and I’m so glad - this was absolutely a must play.
Genuinely challenging, with a plethora of puzzles to work through across practically every style.
The set balanced being busy while also being an accessible place to puzzle - everywhere you looked there was incredible amounts of detail.
Rebecca was our host and she was very attentive - plus we enjoyed the post game explanation by Joseph!

There was a lot to do, and there were absolutely some devious challenges at play. Pay attention.
There was some incredible effects as well!
I would recommend a slightly larger team, especially for the more nonlinear portions.
While there weren’t any actors, there were some very intimidating scenes
