Island Quest Escape Rooms: Project: Atlantis

We played the play-anytime digital version of this game and we really enjoyed it.  The game uses the Telescape software very well.  We found that everything worked as it should, and was clear and easy to understand.  The puzzles were logical and, thankfully, there were no red herrings to frustrate.    It was good fun, would recommend.  🙂

Finding the lost adventurer who was working on Project Atlantis was fun! 

This was a traditional lockbased game, but with a few surprises along the way. The signposting was great (maybe even too obvious) until a few misdirections that we think were intentional. 

The game is built on the telescape platform and we only had one problem along the way. We opened a drawer and it was empty - we think we saw an item (book) for a short time, but then it was gone. It did not show up in inventory. At that point in the game we got stuck and used the hint system to go on - and the hint system worked well, except it didn't explain how we were supposed to find the solution. The rest of the game flowed and we were happy again. 

The game had a low pricepoint compared to some other games we have played and it was a bit short, but that fit well into our day, so again - we were happy. 

All in all a straght-forward game with a small glitch. We still had fun. 

Another really pleasant experience with the folks at Island Quest.  A lovely GM who kept things moving along.  A fairly traditional room with quite a lot of locks, but some very good tie-ins with the theme.  We were also really interested to hear about the speculation that Lanzarote is the real site of Atlantis!  I would rank this one a little below their really excellent magic market game, but both are definitely worth doing.
