In the year 1893 Chicago hosted the World’s Fair to exhibit world changing technologies and modern marvels. In the shadow of the bright lights, a sinister hotel was built by Dr. H.H. Holmes to prey upon unknowing exhibition attendees. Holmes’ victims include two sisters, the owners of oil-rich land in Texas. Shine light on their murders, and you just may get the deed to that coveted Texas property. But be sure you’re able to check out safely from the World’s Fair Hotel. In 1893, you could strike oil or find yourself choking on gas.

1893: We were transported to Chicago in 1893 where the World's Columbian Exposition was underway. But a mysterious man and a strange hotel beckons further investigation. Pros: Great theme. Love the book that the room is based on. The decorations fit the theme as well. The gamemaster was awesome and the introduction to the room/storyline generated much excitement. Cons: The storyline lost cohesiveness in the room and deviated from the actual story at many points. We found most of the puzzles to be actually illogical and required hints on nearly every one. We would have loved to play other games at the establishment to see if this is a trend in general for the business, but time limited our ability to play more. Next time we are in Denver, we will try to play some of their other games.

Great game master. High tech screen clue system is cool but sometimes I wish I could actually talk directly or ask an exact question.
