Middlearth Tales

One of my favourite riddle rooms, limited spaces ( MAX 3) but very beautiful and very good riddles. There is also the orc mode we played which adds some anxiety into the mix.

We liked this room! For the size and the cost of the room it is fantastic value for money. The atmosphere was nice as well! The riddles were quite demanding so we were happy we got to think quite a bit to solve them!

Definitely good value for money at €13 (1h), a small room where they made a lot from the space. It expects a lot from the players, with very non-obvious riddles, sometimes flirting between "hard" and "ambiguous". Mostly decent props - the environment is generally higher quality than the props. Not a must but if you’re into LotR then it’s worth it. Theres an "ork" version which is the same but with an actor doing a bunch of jump scares which I can’t imagine would change things much.

So, this room showed us that not all rooms in Greece are created equally. The room had no flow, and the GM had to chime in with direction due to ambiguity and clues that were intentionally hard to see/notice. We talked to the owner afterwards who was very nice. He said that he wanted the room to be interactive between the players and GM, but we told him this isn't fun for us because we want the satisfaction of solving puzzles on our own.
