Escape Hunt rooms are always brilliant - but this one was maybe just too much for just the 2 of us.
The first bit of the room was fine, breezed through that no problem. But the second bit was quite time consuming. One task/puzzle took a very long time to complete as the equipment was just not quite up to scratch, had definitely seen better days.
The theming was ok. The puzzles were a bit nonsensical and were clearly too much for us as we failed to escape! Our GM reckoned we were about 5 mins away from finishing.
This was, unfortunately, the worst room we've ever done. Previously, I did one of the best ever rooms at Escape Hunt Birmingham, so I don't want to hold it against them. It was a bad day for them, so I'm not going in to details. If it had been my first experience with them, I'd have written them off, but their Fourth Samurai was absolutely brilliant, so we will be doing their other rooms.
Ultimately, this room is unplayable due to broken tech. There was so much broken, we weren't able to solve a single puzzle without intervention and they had to just let us out in the end. This was a combination of the GM's not setting up the room correctly, poor game design that allows the Players to corrupt the game, and broken tech. It was a horrendous experience and means we certainly won't be doing the Doctor Who themed game over at the NEC. However, we have thoroughly enjoyed every other game at Escape Hunt Birmingham, so with that in mind, it must have something to do with the BBC licensing. This was probably bought in and they don't have the parts to fix it.

Can you help the Dr protect the universe???
While there are any number of escape rooms that carefully skirt intellectual property laws with thinly veiled 'homages' to popular franchises, fully licensed games are much rarer, and so it was with much fanfare that Escape Hunt announced their official Doctor Who game Worlds Collide. It differs from their other offerings in requiring at least three players and costing a higher ticket price. (I didn't see anything in the room that was impossible to do with two people, so if you're okay with the ...
I have to say I'm slightly ambivalent - on one hand, the room is filled with obvious and not-so-obvious references, including a few voice-overs by Jodie Whittaker herself. But as a room, it's not particularly impressive nor clever. Even the inventory control system is fairly basic - images are pasted directly in your team's shared Google Doc. The room "does the job", for sure, and the theme ensured I'd have a good time, but that was about it.
