Thoroughly enjoyable room. Consistent strong story, meaningful puzzles, great tech. The GM was attentive, but not intrusive. Clear audio when needed. We wish we had time to do their other rooms.

Quite a unique theme and a couple of puzzles we either haven't encountered before or have encountered very rarely.
