Nestled at the end of Lion Lane sits The Red Herring – a chip shop designed and ran by the brilliant Eustace Whitmore. Darkened every day by his brother’s shadow, Eustace made a secret pact. Some say, he lost his soul. Some say, he lost his mind. All say, inter-dimensional travel is not for the faint-hearted.
WARNING: This game contains small spaces, times of darkness and high levels of intensity that may be unsuitable for some audiences.

Clever use of space and an unusual theme. Some pretty unique puzzles too. A more lock and key based game than the other room we tried there, but all in all, we enjoyed it.

Loved the story line of this room, very inventive. Good range of puzzles. Didnt like how small one of the rooms was, not suitable for more than 2 players in this space. Will be back to try their other rooms.

A unique concept and lots of fun to play. Bit searchy for us at points but our host Ethan was good fun and kept us on track. Preferred the first half - 2nd half felt a bit cramped and wasn't so sure on the story. Puzzles throughout were enjoyable and logical and I'd recommend playing, just not for a large team

Great hosting, fun theme and fun moments, really enjoyed, would be a bit crammed with more than two people though.

A fun well themed romp of a room for 2 people (would definitely say that the room size suits 2-3 best)! The puzzles were generally very well integrated for the theme, and we liked that this was a different and unique setting compared to the other rooms we've done. Brilliant hosting, as usual, and just enough nudges to get us over the finishing line.

Game starts off well and contained a good range of puzzles. The props are well incorporated into the room.

It all has an innocent, fun feel to it until the ending, when it gets a bit peculiar and farfetched. If they kept the storyline, like it was at the beginning, a humorous chip shop with maybe a small yet funny twist, then I would've scored it higher. 

The host and the clue system is fun, as they put a bit of humor and interact with you, which is in keeping with the "initial" theme.

In my humble opinion, if there were a few tweaks to the story and the way it ends (i.e. final third) in keeping a nice fun theme, then I would put this more to being a great room.

The name and concept of this game intrigued us to play and we wasn't let down by the Chip shop. Such a humorous room and ingenious clue system that is nostalgic and fun. The company name fits in with the storyline, it's otherworldly and definitely takes you an unexpected journey. Puzzles are linear and stick with the story and theme. An enjoyable experience

Original story and puzzles fitted in well with the theme. A couple of aspects did not seem that logical but mostly worked well, and enjoyed the ending. We had a good time and worth playing if in the area but not good enough on its own to recommend making a special trip.

I would guess this was one of the earlier games by Other World. It’s still a fine game, but perhaps showing its age in places. One or two twists, and a convincing set were ultimately let down by a weak ending.
