Gold Heist in the Gold Rush

Average room. It had the 3 things I find frustrating in escape rooms. Assumed knowledge. Puzzles that don't quite line up so you can be millimetres from solving and don't. A GM who doesn't engage. An ok hour if you have run out of things to do in Queenstown.

Great room! Some very clever puzzles, and not to much for a small group.

8/10

Was hesitant to participate, given the reviews. The reviews are rougher than they should be. There was still a lot of good in this room, definitely some bad, but more good. The goods, staff were lovely and wanted us to have a nice time. To me all of the puzzles were clear, without all of them being too easy. Everything worked as intended without fault. There's really not too much bad to say about this room. In this room I did (unprompted) receive part of an answer to a puzzle. Not a big fan of that, I hate asking for hints and clues as it is, so to out receive a portion of an answer without asking for it, did put me out a smidge. The GM was well meaning though. I would recommend this room on a visit to Queenstown.

Not my favorite room. Decor was great, puzzles were good but staff gave us clues for things we had already done or randomly gave us answers to things when we didn’t ask for them or needed them.

Felt very much the same as all their other rooms. Very similar puzzles in all rooms
