You’ve made your way to the location tracked from the phone call and find yourself pulled from the street; trapped in the dark, frightened and alone.
What is this place? This is no longer a man hunt – it’s a matter of life or death.
Will you survive?

Really liked the concept of the story continuation from the previous game, but in practice it didn't really seem to make any material difference. There were some very good thematically-appropriate elements (and I was pleased to discover a novel although perhaps slightly unhygienic way to solve one of the puzzles!) but unfortunately it was slightly let down by some other puzzles that relied too much on spotting small text and hard-to-read differences. Overall still fun though, and good hosting as usual.
We played this straight after part 1, which acted as a nice warm-up. Really enjoyed the split start, which was fun but didn't outstay its welcome. Room design is really good, with some quite challenging puzzles (more so that part 1), but none that were illogical or frustrating. For us, as a pair who've done a fair number of rooms but frequently either miss the things that are right in front of our faces, it was just the right level of difficulty to have a sense of achievement without feeling spoon-fed.
I felt this was an improvement over part 1 so if you're forced to choose, part 2 gets my recommendation. Excellent hosting from the friendly Hourglass team, thanks for a great afternoon!
Another great game from hourglass with brilliant and well constructed set design. Puzzles fit the theme of the game and there were plenty of them. The game was challenging but thoroughly enjoyable and kept us busy. As always excellent hosting by Della. Highly recommended
Another great room by Hourglass, a well thought through sequel. We found it rather tricky (but in a good way), you definately need your thinking hats on for this one. Well worth a visit.
