You are part of the infamous James-Younger Gang - notorious outlaws of the Wild West. With your leader, Jesse James, laid up with a gunshot wound, it’s up to the rest of you to carry out the robbery. Gold - enough for 3 lifetimes, and the priceless Baton Rouge Diamond - are locked in the vault, waiting to be picked up by the militia and transported by armed caravan to Fort Misery. The robbery has to happen tonight. Jesse’s most trusted companion, John Younger, is holed up near the bank waiting for the signal. Specific instructions detailing how to break and enter the bank vault have been left for you. Get into the vault and get the loot before the Sheriff arrives. But watch out! There’s a bounty on your head, and every cowboy is trying to cash in.

This room was very confusing as we stumbled through the puzzles. A couple parts required multiple people to complete, so have at least 4 people in your party. We needed several hints to progress through the room because there was not logical ways forward multiple times. We were able to solve a couple puzzles by randomly trying different combinations. We didn’t figure out why things worked until the GM explained how the clues were supposed to work. Overall we left dissatisfied because some of the puzzles clues & elements required advanced directions to be able to enter in a solution.

Gameplay

This room was pretty linear, but it didn’t feel like it when we were in. Some of the puzzles clues were given via voice recordings and we had to repeat a lot of times to try to gain understanding. Several puzzle solutions were not very clear or obvious and we randomly solved without understanding why that was the solution. This was the first room in a while where we had to ask how to get to several of the solutions. There were fun and unique elements and effects. We also got stuck multiple times really struggling how to proceed.
