Mark as done to rate

Your detective skills are critical to your survival. On a fast train to Budapest with your fellow detectives, you find out a man by the name of Sir Clarence Hayden has suddenly been murdered! You’re able to narrow down 5 suspects who were seen in the dining car around the same time, but it’s up to you to nail down the suspect before the next stop along the railway. Moving through the cabins and gathering evidence, the killer knows you are hot on their trail and has decided you are their next target. With you out of the picture, they would be free to escape when the train stops.

Roughly your average escape room. Reasonable quality sets and puzzles. I enjoyed the mystery theme. There was nothing standout unique about this game, either positive or negative 3/5

My experience in this room was definitely better than my experience in the Mayday room, but it was still not great. My team and I (all very experienced at escape rooms) escaped with only a few mins left. There’s wayyyyyyy too much reading in this room. I am a slow reader and approach text in escape rooms with the idea that it will matter in some way. In a lot of cases at Escapology, it actually doesn’t matter. Or just one word/phrase on an entire page of info does. And we are expected to be able to pinpoint it. Stupid. This game also relies on you remembering what item you get from where; so if you play, stay organized and take notes on where you find things. A few labels could fix this, but I doubt they’ll change it. Also, the staff is not super friendly or helpful. I don’t think they necessarily want their customers to win.
