This game is nerdy, quirky, meme-filled fun. A delightful humor-filled concept whose existence is a puzzle in itself. A puzzling conxept, this has top-game potential, and it can be played up to 3 times as a 1-hour experience, two times as a 1.5-hour experience, or one giant puzzle-a-thon in 3 hours (with optional bonus puzzles to boot!). We used almost every minute of the 3 hours with the bonuses (literally: 2 hours 59 minutes!), and left the room in a state that might take just as long for the GM to reset - I don't know if I've ever seen so many "pieces" and props for one game! If you're local, I'd choose to split it up into multiple plays (2, I'd say). It's a smaller space with traditional-style puzzles (though paradoxically also very high-tech...), but the puzzles grind you down over 3 hours, and sadly not all of the puzzles are of the same calibre (some just feel like a slog...). The story was also confusing, and it takes some time to get acquainted with what is actually happening in the room (I'm not sure I understand it even after finishing it). However, it's mostly great and a unique concept I've never seen before in almost 550 games. So, I'd say it's a must-play for uniqueness alone, if you have the 3 hours to spare. They do let you pause your time for a break! The tech was a little finicky and certain sensors weren't sensitive enough to pick up our "inputs" (no spoilers here!), which forced us to scan and rescan certain things which got a bit tedious. If the plotline were more clear and the sensors improved, I could see this becoming a new top game in Florida.

Some of the puzzles might be too tough for kids alone, but kids would probably be a great addition to the fun (but... it's a small space, so consider whether you want a full 3-hour commitment... or better to choose the 1-hour option!)
