This game was well themed but had two Achilles heels. One of the puzzles relies on a method of interaction that was highly unreliable which made it essentially impossible. We wasted 10 minutes before the GM asked if we wanted to skip that puzzle, and they later told us most teams skip it. Another puzzle gives you a certain amount of something, which was not nearly enough to accomplish what you needed to do with it (not that there was waste, there just wasn’t enough to begin with, or the puzzle was set up wrong). Either way it left us having to guess half of the solution. It’s a shame because the rest of the room was so well done, but these ruined the experience. This is the first room at the Escape Game Lynnfield that I wouldn’t recommend.
Gameplay
Two puzzles were not ‘broken’ per-se, but were rendered unreliable/impossible.
Atmosphere
Great theming
Customer service
GM was good, but should have helped with the janky puzzle sooner since it wasn’t us doing something wrong, it was the mechanism being completely unreliable.
