Tick Tock Unlock Manchester: The Hatch

Lost the Plot

This was another trial-run I did with other new recruits when I was working for Tick Tock.

Story

Having survived a plane crash, reunite with your group and disable an electromagnet device to prevent your memories being wiped. Lost meets Memento, maybe? The set-up didn't really line up with the ultimate goal.

Puzzles

Although there wasn't an awful lot, we still had enough to be getting on with. Teamwork was crucial in the first part. The final puzzle took a lot of time and effort, and the components it used was very clever.

Mise-en-scène

The 'jungle' was lacklustre; a couple of the items inside were random, if not out of place. The electromagnet area was drab.

Final Comments

If the story isn't strong enough, it just seems like you've been thrown into a room to solve a few brainteasers and hopefully have a good time. Meh.
