This was a very unique experience, that I find hard to rate because there were both great aspects and things I didn’t like. I love the whole concept of Deep Inside. The set is beautiful, the actors are fantastic, especially their costumes. I like the story, but it didn’t flow very well, which was one of the main issues. It often felt like we were either stuck or being interrupted, and it wasn’t always clear what to do next. Don’t go to Deep Inside for the puzzles, go for the theatre.

I really liked the over all concept of the room with the story and unique setup. Unfortunetally lot of the experience just felt anoying. One of the actors has overdone the scares so much with the constant screaming and chasing that it stopped being scary and it became mostly anoying. Also the whole thing felt quite confusing and repetitive at times, It just didn’t flow very well. I think that the experience left me frustrated not because it would be all bad, but because I know that there is such a potential that was not taken advantage of or was interupted by something.

Splatter and I didn't hate it!! This game is full of the Athens tropes, but it's probably doing the best job of making it feel justified and fresh. It's actually very well done, probably the best cinematics in Athens. The puzzles, the story and the set all hit the right spot - It knows what it is and it's delivering on that. Everything is also a bit ridiculous, therefore I did not find this one scary. Yes, this game is splatter and you won't leave dry, but the blood you are sprayed with is very concentrated so that it should be washable. Also, the space did not feel gross at all, you can't even tell where the splatter happens. That said, it was fun for once, I don't need more games attempting this. I'm also not the biggest fan of blood and gore in general, so that's my personal minus point. I would recommend this game if you are in Athens. It's also perfect for horror beginners. It is loud, so bring earplugs.

Lockhill has its own twist on Athens horror. Chapel & Catacombs consists of three different areas, they feel distinctive and each has its own restrictions and is occupied by a different character. We've had loads of fun interacting with the different characters while solving the game. I must say the set was mostly let down. The Chapel is impressive, but you spend most of the game surrounded by black walls. It felt run down, and it was very dusty. Someone even got a splinter. I understand that it would be very hard to detail every corner of a set on this scale, but I was expecting more after being in the beautiful Lockhill village. Lockhill has great in-character onboarding where you are able to use the bathroom, and you can ask for a lighter version or for a version completely without scares. Lockhill is also one of very few companies in Athens that provides safe word, which I appreciate. It makes me feel like they actually care about the well being of players. This makes me want to recommend this game to non-horror players / horror beginners. Over all, this room is fun, there are reasons to play, but I wouldn't say that it's an absolute must do in Athens now. ... Though it is a good intro for the House on the Hill.

I really don't want to add to the hype and everybody's expectations around this game. Let's just say it's my new favorite escape room and move on. It is unique. It has a beautiful set and lighting with a specific aesthetic, including the costumes. Great acting. The gameplay has some easy puzzles, but it's not about them. Beyond everything mentioned, there is something deeper going on, something personal that I think all of us can relate to, and that's the reason to play this game. Most of the room is not very scary until one part that will make you face your fears. Lockhill is very kind to its players, they provide groups with a mechanism to stop the game at any time, and they can also adjust to scared players. Therefore, I would recommend this game to everyone, even players who normally skip horror!!! Bring your earplugs here. One part of the game is very loud, but even the loudness here is justified.

This room was little overhyped for me. It felt like a classic escape room on a bigger scale. The set is nice, the story is simple and effective. Unfortunatally it left a lot to be desired in the lighting and sound department, it felt like we were playing some kind of a 'lights-on-for-maintenance' version. The puzzles were all right, nice variaty, mostly on the easier side. I’d still recommend checking it out if you’re in Vienna, It would be a great option for beginners.
