Everything was logical, some outside knowledge was needed at some point (Which I am not a fan of), and the theming was pretty generic. Ok game

This is a traditional escape room but with a slightly more unique concept of solving the different elements of the crime. With multiple rooms and integrating Chester's setting into the game, this was a fun, sleuthy game which was enjoyable but not particularly challenging.

Overall this game was OK it did feel like there was a few puzzles that are a bit out of place, apart from those things we enjoy the game.

#3

Again, a fun enough room from Breakout, but slightly dated set design and puzzles (like Vacancy). The story was a bog-standard murder mystery,  not bad just not great.

A Confusing Ordeal

The title says it all, really!

Story

On the website, you're supposedly invading a killer's lair to find proof that they murdered your friend. In the room, though, I remember the mission being to find out who the psychopath has killed as well as where and how the victims died. I'm not sure why the stories don't add up.

Puzzles

Considering it's a 3-star room, there were many red herrings. Soon after our game started, the Game Operator reappeared and placed something on a desk- in plain sight. Afterwards, it became clear that this object should have been hidden i.e. inaccessible until the drawer it belongs in was unlocked. As a result, we struggled to link its use to another article we acquired, instead wasting time trying to apply it to other places in the room. Also, when attempting the final puzzle, we were later told that it isn't possible to view it on the staff's camera, which isn't very reassuring.

Mise-en-scène

If I went into the room without being told the story, I wouldn't have said it's a psychopath's lair. It was just a study leading on to one or two further areas. Generic and forgettable.

Final Comments

It actually seemed like we had won, only for us to be told otherwise! Admittedly, we did require a fair few clues, so a victory didn't really seem within reach. I have had more enthusiastic Game Operators.

Bewertungen von Escape Room-Bewertungsseiten

A nicely themed room with a great central puzzle the game revolves around. At times, we felt some of the puzzles didn’t flow as nicely as they could have done, but all in all it was an enjoyable game.
A decent game, but slightly outdated. Click the link to read our review!
