I don’t think this was as bad as others have been saying but it’s not great either. A lot of reading which might bother people. Kinda old school room? But functional and fun while it lasts

This room was pretty lame. Super tight small spaces. We had 3 adults and 3 teenage boys and it was way too small for all of us. Most of the time 4 people just stood around while 2 people worked on a puzzle. Storyline was nonexistent. I couldn’t even tell you what the point was. Zero sense of urgency.

I’d give it a 5/10 … I’ve been to worse but definitely nothing impressive

I feel like there were very few puzzles… a lot of time you’re just finding the pieces and then putting the puzzle together which was not hard but time consuming

Such small spaces, any more than 3 is too cramped. 2 people to do a puzzle and maybe a 3rd to look for other things to do..

I’m debating whether or not this is the worst room I’ve ever done. I’ll start with the pros. Pros: Nice enough set. The set design was pretty good and didn’t look cheap or run down. Gamemaster was very nice as well. Cons: Virtually everything else. The place is in a strange location, and could be hard to find for some. The room is a series of chores. The first room you will be doing essentially a chore for 90% of the time. The second room, you are doing a chore for 90% of the time. Absolutely 0 flow or direction with this room. It is also very weirdly laid out, and no background music made it feel unsettling as well. It also is not doable with 2 people, unless they give you a little extra time. This is a 3+ person game at minimum. This would have been nice to know ahead of time. Don’t waste your time or money on this room. Tampa has soooo much better than this.

Awful. You will be doing chores for 80% of the game.

Decent.

Not memorable or interesting.
Difficulty
Do not play with 2 players. It’s not even “hard” it’s just so time consuming doing some of the tasks in this room.

First room was fine and enjoyable for a simple game and design. The second room felt more like a serious of assigned readings and tedious projects. I would recommend bringing 3-4 players for the extra hands. Lots of loose pieces and puzzles.

Story
We were not sure what the storyline or objective was for the game. It started with a death while we were on a happy walk through a wooded area? Then we progressed into a dated cabin/school where we participated in a series of tedious homework assignments and read an entire book about birds. Yay birds!
Difficulty
Medium
Puzzles were rather simple, but doable. Due to a handful of puzzles being an abundance of pieces, it took our team of 2 an absurd about of time to complete them. Would recommend a minimum of 4, if not 3 players for this experience.

Room was good but I recommend the other rooms over it. Some puzzles got stuck while playing the game and it takes the fun out of it but overall good room
