We loved the theme, but the puzzle experience itself was a little disappointing. We were looking for a good beginner, family friendly game to take our kid and the grandparents and it was… fine. Not as beginner friendly as we would have hoped and any challenge came more from game design confusion rather than fun. We broke sequence several times and were confused by the same puzzle opening multiple locks. One puzzle in particular, we understood how to solve but the lining up was very ambiguous. Clues didn’t help because we had the right idea so eventually we just had to be given the code to move on. We had a fun enough afternoon, but probably wouldn’t recommend.
