As members of the Scotland Yard force, your group is tasked with investigating the suspected hideout of Professor James Moriarty, the criminal mastermind bent on destroying Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is en route to Whitehall, where he expects Moriarty to strike next. Before heading out, though, Holmes gave Inspector Lestrade a scrap of paper with scribbled address where he suspects the criminal hideout to be. You must find and search the secret location while avoiding any traps or snares Moriarty might have designed to protect his lair. Rumor has it that no one has ever entered this hideout and escaped alive...

First off - clue/hint system was a JOKE. There was no way to ask for any type of help, you just had to wait for someone to come in and see if you needed any help. The flow of the room was non-existent. We’ve done over 100 rooms and this was one of the worst! You were literally put in a room and had to jump all over the place to try and solve clues to help you unlock different locks, but the answers made ZERO sense. Save your money and time!
Gameplay
No real flow at all to the room.

Nothing was broken, but things were very worn out. Seems like beyond a low budget room.

The clue system at this establishment in Fayetteville is awful. They have the same clue system in Bentonville and it’s terrible…you have to wait until the GM thinks you’re having trouble and then you have to wait until they walk into the room to give a clue. I don’t know why they thought this was a good idea What boggles my mind though is the 5 star reviews on Google…they have to be PAID reviews because the games at NWA Escapes at both Fayetteville and Bentonville suck. They’re rip off games of fan favorite movies and games. They will use the content from the movie or game which I’m pretty sure isn’t allowed and then call it something else so they don’t get sued. The design of the rooms are also abysmal…think of a blank office space. Now add little decorations with puzzles sprinkled in… Save your money and don’t play these games. My group’s favorite company around here is Ozark Escapes. You’re welcome.
