The Secret At Whitmore Estate

Lots of great tech and puzzle variety, and does a pretty good job of presenting multiple puzzles at a time so players can be working on separate puzzles simultaneously, and some fun puzzles that required players to be simultaneously doing things in separate rooms. That said, it felt like there were "too many keys, and not enough locks"; we were constantly finding keys before finding the locks they went to, which felt weird and out of order. One bigger complaint is that the final puzzle is very simple and doesn't feel at all like it'll be the "final puzzle". So when we got the clue for it, one person in the group ran off to another room to do it, which triggered the finale, which the rest of us missed because we weren't in the room. We also had about half an hour left at that point, and all had an "is that it?" reaction when the host came in.

Another great room. Played this right after we played Crystal Cave one. Both were great. Was a little worried about the spook factor, but not scary at all. Thanks again Mike!

Fun puzzles

I enjoyed this room a lot. The puzzles were great. The set design was good and the interactions were fun.

Good room. We (3 of us) got stuck on one of the puzzles and weren't able to escape. The puzzles were good, but the second room didn't really add anything to the story/experience. There were a little too many numeric codes/locks for our liking. Still the room has a nice atmosphere.

I loved this room! I also have played headcase here and I think the set design and how the room was made was great. I definitely recommend this game!

Great room! Our game master Anthony asked if we wanted nudges instead of giving hints without asking, that was a nice. The room had a good amount of clues and things to solve. The room wasn’t too difficult for novices. The theme was a mystery but not scary, more spooky.

This is a great room… the puzzles flowed with the room theme…

I really enjoyed this room. It’s not flashy or over the top, like the hot games out there, but it is a solid room all around. It has a great set with attention to detail and a couple of surprises up its sleeve, it has some really good and unique puzzles, and it flowed really well. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to enthusiasts and beginners alike. I recommend 3-5 players as it is largely a linear room.
