We tried a system here that lets players get hints via a screen to remove the need to resort to help from an outside game master, but it breaks the decorum and means that sometimes you have someone trying to manage the screen instead of participating in the game. The logic of the puzzles is pretty much all over the place, just like the scenario. Basically, you have to go find a diamond that's worth a lot of money (but the why is not explained). The room has huge potential when it comes to immersion but it's poorly used or clumsily executed. I almost walked out of the room 2-3 times because I was so unhappy, I felt like I was being messed around by the scenario. For example: We solve a puzzle, something is supposed to open, it doesn't, we ask the game master after 3-4 minutes if we missed something. Her answer was: No, this item is supposed to trigger on its own but it's been broken for a long time, so you have to trigger it manually... Don't go until the room has had an update.
Gameplay
The potential is there, but that's all...
Atmosphere
Great decor, rich, high immersion potential.
Story
The bare minimum, without any further explanation. No story behind it really. All it takes is one "why" and we're left with nothing in terms of this story.
Difficulty
Hard
Should be medium, but given the weird logic of the puzzles and the breakage of a story element, it makes the whole thing difficult...

Was anything broken?
Yes
The team told us they had known for a long time about the broken object and that it still hadn't been fixed. This was frustrating for us because it significantly reduced how much fun we had in the room (are other elements broken and will they prevent us from making it to the end?)
