Grithin Gifford

This room gets described as atmospheric, and that is a very good description: from the moment you enter, you get swept into the little town of Grithin Gifford. The set is very beautiful, and the music helps with the tension. There is an actor in this room, and while his role is to help you and to tell the story, the latter didn't really come over since his English accent wasn't very good. It was relatively easy to understand him when he was giving hints, but during cinematics, with the music blaring at top volume, it wasn't. This led to us not fully understanding the story, and felt quite awkward during the final dialogue with him. The riddles are in general fitting with the story. However, as with a lot of rooms in Athens, some riddles have an extra layer on top which makes it unnecessarily hard and less logical. This kind of riddles is limited here, but there are a few. All in all a nice room to play, but take the time to ask for clarification after your game if you didn't get everything. This will allow you to fully appreciate the experience.
