Wow!! This was such a fun room. From the decorations, the puzzles, to the acting involved I was obsessed from the beginning. About 5 hours away from where I live and I will most definitely be making the journey to come back. The building is so beautiful, you wouldn't have known it might have been damaged back during Helene. The only complaint I have is one of the puzzles involves a lot of staring at a light that isn't necessarily flashing like a strobe, but is repeating enough I couldn't participate. Regardless, I still had enough to do even if I couldn't participate with that part. We had a group of 6 which definitely felt like the perfect amount, especially since it was 1 player's first room.
Gameplay
Atmosphere
The clue system is through an old phone, which was really cute considering the theme. Very cute design. They make it obvious what's decor and what's potentially a puzzle without screaming it at you.
Customer service
The game master was phenomenal. I believe he also may have been the owner? Regardless, absolute sweetheart. Big reason I want to go back was because of how much he clearly enjoyed hosting.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
I have a soft spot for time travel so maybe I'm biased but this was certainly my favorite I've played in that theme
Story
Very easy to follow and shown through the room
Difficulty
Hard
I would personally rate it 7/10 in difficulty.
Game tech
High tech
Hightech as it is a time travel room, but still lots of good mechanical aspects. Perfect blend of both.
Ideal number of players
5
Scary
Not scary
Minimum age
10
Was anything broken?
No
Live actors
Yes
No one scaring you, just guiding through the story at some points.
Physically active
Somewhat
Moving through stairs to get to the building/to the room. Moving back and forth through the rooms. Plenty of seating if needed.
Accessibility
Moving through stairs to get to the building/to the room. Moving back and forth through the rooms. Plenty of seating if needed. There is one specific puzzle that uses color and could trip up the more extreme color blind. A couple of sound based puzzles but nothing too bad. Once you're upstairs the bathroom is accessible throughout the entire time.
Easy to find location
Yes
Parking
Medium
We were able to find street parking but I imagine on a busier day it might not be.
Safety
Yes
The game master was very friendly and did shake our hands as part of the script which did startle me a little lol
