It’s alive! It’s aliiiiiiiiiive! Frankenstein: The Awakening definitely was a lively game! Excellent use of space that felt immersive and creepy, though not necessarily scary (which is good for us cowards!) Uncovering how to awaken the titular scientist’s monster was exciting, though also unnerving at times. The puzzles were on the harder side, although they were fair for the most part. They were also intuitive and smart. There is an exception with one puzzle making no sense and being such a logic leap that we were upset we wanted 2 out of 3 hints trying to get past it. While multiple floors make the space bigger, it does also mean people who can’t traverse the narrow staircase will completely miss out on more than half the room. That said, it works to double the size of the room for anyone who can make the trek up. There is a clever way to ensure everyone can see the big WOW moment no matter where they are. Definitely had better flow than the Pharaoh’s Chamber room in the same location. Don’t miss out on this monstrously fun experience if you’re near Murfreesboro or Nashville!
