Onboard the famous trans-European Budapest Express, you are with Karine Peaufiner, a famous French detective from Paris. You are traveling to Budapest to meet with other detectives showcasing the latest developments in crime scene forensics. It is nighttime and you are passing slowly through the heart of Europe during a heavy snowstorm. You are reviewing case notes in your cabin with Karine and your colleagues. Suddenly there is a knock at the door, it is the train manager. He looks worried and asks you to come quickly to the First Class dining coach. When you arrive, you see a man slumped over a restaurant table. He was Sir Clarence Hayden and he has been murdered! The manager informs you that in one hour the train will stop at the next station, if the killer hasn’t been apprehended, they will be free to escape into the night and get away with this horrible crime! Your reputation as brilliant detectives precedes you, he asks you to solve the crime so the murderer can be caught and brought to justice. You’re able to narrow down 5 suspects who were seen in the dining car around the time Sir Clarence was murdered. Moving through the cabins and gathering evidence, the killer knows you are hot on their trail and has decided you are their next target. With you out of the picture, they would be free to escape when the train stops. Solve the riddles and puzzles, gather the evidence and solve the murder before it’s too late! Do you have what it takes to find the killer before they find you? Time is of the essence!

Game has more of a “whodunnit” feel, but the puzzles were fun to solve and we had a great time!

It’s like clue but on a larger scale. Not really escape roomesque as it is a whodunnit. Still fun tho

Pleasant room with a fun “who done it” concept. You must listen to the game masters at the beginning because they tell you vital information that my team, unfortunately, disregarded which led to the last puzzle being much more difficult than intended. Fun room, cool design and nice staff.

My impression of this room is definitely clouded by my expectations going in. It didn't fully occur to me that a murder mystery doesn't directly require escaping, so the reality of this room's goal didn't sink in until I was doing it, and I didn't enjoy the process. The room was designed very well with numerous details and multiple rooms. The GM was a bit odd and seemed uncomfortable when interacting with us. Overall, a subpar experience, but if you enjoy a clue-style murder mystery over an escape, give it a try and maybe you'll enjoy it more than me.
While it flowed, I don't personally enjoy not escaping.
The atmosphere was great and the set was well constructed.
The staff was a bit standoffish and our GM seemed uncomfortable interacting with us.

The set contruction made it feel like a real train.
The story flowed well with almost too many details on passengers.
