This is a decent enough serial killer cabin game (though only the 2nd, possibly 3rd or 4th best serial/cereal killer game from this company). Most of the game really doesn’t do anything very special with such a common theme. There’s some annoyingly repetitive audio things that try to immerse in the world, but they if anything take you out a bit. The only highlight of the 1st 2/3s of the game is one hilarious detail that I'm really happy a puzzle requires you to read through. It’s great.
The game does pick-up to an extent in the finale. Your overall goal in it is really compelling, like, just seeing what you have to do is entertaining, even if the actual gameplay still amounts to a bunch of just decent-enough puzzles. There’s some interesting lore here too, but like the other darker games from Masterpiece, the lore is only explained by the gamemaster and isn’t shown well during the game itself.
It’s decent, but Wrecked does everything this game does but a lot better. In fact, I like every full game at Masterpiece better than this, meaning I find it hard to recommend it unless you really like serial killer cabin themes, you haven’t done way too many killer cabin escape rooms already, or you’re trying to complete this entire facility. It really isn’t anything special, other than that oddly compelling finale or that really funny detail in the middle.
(This game is above average, I sound pessimistic in this review because it didn’t impress me the way the other games here did)
