Whatever Happened To The Garretts?

I'm just really surprised bc this game is very highly rated, but we had a bad experience. Some crucial things were not working, especially towards the end where it was necessary to advance. And even though our gm seemed to say this was a frequent and known issue, they still weren't watching closely enough to save us from many long minutes of metaphorical button mashing. Even then, they said that to reset the elements for play or even to show us the function would take protracted steps and take a long time... Having seen other reviews mentioning this I have a hard time giving grace for not at least tightening up the reset procedure let alone fixing broken elements. There are some good things here but even trying to imagine past our unfun moment there doesn't feel like a lot of game here. Wondering if it has outlived its great reputation or if we were too distracted to appreciate what's there.

Cool story progression. Did solo. Puzzles are medium. Really liked it.

It was cool I really liked the set and the puzzles were fun. Two puzzles were broken but we still managed to solve everything in time.

Really fun room. Very 80s inspired with a cool twist at the end. The puzzles were fun and the story was awesome. Definitely one of my favorites.

Lotta strong puzzles. "Stranger Things" meets "I saw the TV glow" meets "Too Many Cooks" meets "Arrival" type vibe

I didnt think this room would live up to its reviews but it surpassed them! I really liked this room it was amazing the puzzles were really fun! I would put this definitely in my top 5 rooms so far. There were many fun twists that kept surprising us, so dont judge the room by only the name! I would definitely recommend to not miss this room!

This was a very fun nostalgic experience, the mechanics were very nice put together, however one puzzle that require higher amount of dexterity and effort that chipped away our time by a lot. However, the story was great and the puzzles were thoughtful. We did play in a very hot day, and one of the room became quite warm. Overall, 8.5/10

7/10 It's ominous but not spooky if that makes sense. On a hot day this would be terrible, 80's didn't have AC so don't expect it. Overall this game was linear, so you won't go wondering if you skipped a piece. So that's great about this room

Peak Nostalgia. If you like stranger things than you will love this. Puzzles were very creative. Some easy. Some a little more challenging. I can see why people love this room. The game play flowed. Set design was top notch
