Escape Lincoln: Prison Van

Generally when we fail a room we still enjoy it but on a couple of occasions we've been so frustrated that the whole experience became a bit unpleasant. This room was one of those.

The game is played in a real prison van - so you have a split start in very cramped conditions. Larger people beware! I'm not a fan of passing articles when a leap of faith is required that it reaches its destination.  We were also briefed that nothing was on the floor or above head height. Both of these locations are used which thwarted us quite a bit as we didn't search where we were told there was nothing to find! There was no flow, a lot of random puzzles that weren't signposted particularly well and whilst we are older than your average escapees we've done a fair few and this was our stinker!!

We failed dismally on this game, we worked out we would probably have needed at least another 10 minutes or so to complete it.  It took a while to get a response when we asked for a clue as it seemed several games were running at once with not enough staff on duty.

Maybe it was down to us but we just didn't 'get' this game at all. Wouldn't recommend it either.
