Another fantastic room with lots of detail and complex puzzles. Couple of old fashioned locks and some game mechanics we've seen before but all put together in a great theme and fun to run through. We honestly thought we might not make it but ALLIE to the rescue with some important clues/hints at just the right time to reframe the way we were thinking or have us recheck our steps.
Gameplay
We were able to move from one puzzle easily to the next as we continued to gather information and props needed to solve open questions. Our team was pretty balanced and worked well to offer enough perspectives to keep us moving.
Atmosphere
Lots of detail. Great theming. Kept us running back and forth to make sure all spaces in the room were used.
Customer service
The staff here is fantastic. Thanks again ALLIE!!
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
Story
The first puzzle sort of set the theme and gave background on the characters who could've been in the room. All parts of the room were used and related to the theme or storyline.
Difficulty
Hard
It wasn't necessarily harder to figure out, but there were a lot of steps for some of the solutions and you needed to work together to make the whole thing flow. If one of us got stuck, someone else could probably see a different way through to keep going.
Game tech
Mechanical
Standard magnetic locks on mystery drawers and cabinets. A couple old fashioned number/alpha padlocks. Appropriate lighting.
Ideal number of players
4
At least 4, probably good for 5-6. Large space. Plenty of room to move around.
Scary
Not scary
Dim and dark at times but just for mood. Able to see when needed. A couple cabinets were startlingly loud when opening.

10
Puzzles were a bit more complicated. Older pre-teen at minimum.

Nothing strenuous, just moving around the room as needed.
