The atmosphere of the room was actually pretty good. Decent set pieces and some of the workings of the room were pretty impressive. The puzzles on the other hand were ok at best. Literally some things you just had to guess at with nothing really to help you understand the puzzle. Some of the devices didnβt work properly which led you to believe you had more to solve. Lost a fair amount of time just trying to get their things to work the right way. GM was pretty annoying. Stood in the room and just followed you around giving clues. Pulled you right out of any immersion the room offered. All in allβ¦ WAY better rooms in the Austin area. This is easily one to skip.

First time experiencing live actor in our game, was very put off by this, So with that overshadowing our experience we trudged ahead through broken puzzles and the aloof in room game master. Red herrings everywhere you turn and just a really oppressive feel with the slamming of axe throwing on the other-side of the wall.

a few things weren't working and they had a "you get what you get" attitude about it.

the live actor was unsettlingly unhelpful and sort of huffed when we suggested things that were wrong, he had an air of superiority and it felt awful.
