Host was friendly and just the right amount of helpful with time checks etc. Nothing in the room was broken, though an early statement by him was a bit of a misdirection! We were granted this one for free after having an awful session previously in the Hexmore room, this one was much much better.

pretty standard room and puzzles, just a little worn for a fairly newly built room. No frustrations apart from the game master offering up solutions a bit too quickly!
