Escape Room Thriller Brooklyn, year 2051 Curiosity has pushed you, together with your three best friends, to face a crazy journey across the ocean. A surreal atmosphere envelops New York and the borough of Brooklyn breathes a very heavy air. A few hours separate you from the annual outbreak sanctioned by the Government as you make your way to Manhattan. But something goes wrong ... the car you are traveling on punctures a tire: no possibility to ask for help, no trace of life. An extremely tall building seems to be the only source of shelter ... A few seconds from the entrance, your vision becomes blurred: when you wake up you are immobilized by terror.

I should say up front that my experience of this game is probably colored by language considerations. I joined a group that was more comfortable in Italian than English, so we played the game in Italian (the game was available in both), and while direct communication with the GM was mostly in Italian, we communicated among ourselves in a mix of Spanish, English, and Italian. Even though the game is available in English, I don’t know that our GM was very comfortable with English. I think it’s possible that they didn’t follow our internal discussion to be able to inject help when needed. So with that out of the way, this game was something of a struggle for us. Many of the puzzles felt like they were under-clued, and it seemed like some of the tech wasn’t entirely working. Additionally, our GM was not paying particularly good attention, either in cases where a component needed to be manually triggered or in other cases when we asked for a hint (even when we called out in Italian). There were definitely a couple of neat ideas in the game, but the experience left us wanting, especially by comparison to Interstellar.
Our GM was very friendly, but as noted in the review, not sure they were as diligent as I would have liked

Game requires a step up to enter and you are placed in a specific allocation with restraints. At least one puzzle would probably be difficult for red/green color blindness
