Lost In Space

This was a bit of a rough room, not because the challenges were hard but because a lot of things didn't make sense. Not a clear direction of what to do and even after doing over 100 rooms we really struggled with this one. Music was WAY too loud and it was way too dark. Maybe it was just different than our brains work, we had to ask for a lot of hints because even after solving each puzzle we didn't know where to go next. Came out more stressed than we went in even though we solved it.

OK, this game is still offered, and I will give you the caveat that I did this game over eight years ago. At the time, spaceships were a newer theme and this was a pretty good set. I don’t know how well it holds up now. Some space-based puzzles, but nothing really stood out.

Fairly easy. Room is older. Game ended abruptly with a “that’s all?” Feeling versus “yes we made it!” Puzzles that were intended to be solved later were solved earlier making the gameplay slightly confusing. Several red herrings (or maybe they were just old/broken pieces of the game no longer in use?) tip: keep in mind you are attempting to repair your ship, one puzzle is particularly obscure in that most rooms you’re discouraged from performing this type of action. Overall I’d suggest going to one of their other rooms.

This room is obviously extremely old. Half of the puzzles didn’t work or barely functioned and I felt bad for the GMs trying to hold it all together. With the amount of rooms in the Charlotte area, I would give this one a hard pass
