Το Σανατόριο [The Sanatorium]

I hated this experience. The warm welcome from the actor already in character was my favourite part. Even in ‘daylight’ mode the set is smoky, dirty and part of it even smells like sewage. It’s very atmospheric but you feel like your psyche needs a shower afterwards. Not for the faint hearted and unfortunately I am incredibly faint of heart! 😂 When you are so nervous and afraid it stops being about enjoyment and appreciation and becomes something you are just enduring to get out and get a coffee. I couldn’t wait for the room to end. I must stress, this is very personal and my partner and I appreciated that the puzzles were more complex than we were expecting for this level of horror room.

We love lockhill. But this game is not good. Broken mechanisms, slippery & dirty surfaces from the tons of smoke they're using. Atmosphere is great. And it is REALLY scary! But, that's all. It is very small, with bad flow & not-working properly puzzles, due to its age. Back to the past I'm sure that it would be a top-notch game.

Game 9 of 17 of Our Athens Tour - #### that was intense. This is, in short, living a video game (Think Resident Evil or Silent Hill). The set is dingy, dark, and hard to see. It doesn’t need to be particularly large, as it makes use of every. Single. Inch perfectly. The puzzles are challenging but manageable (largely scaling in difficulty based on your perception of how scary the game is). Thomas, your guide in the town, is a kind and reassuring presence. The actors were terrifying and excellent in their timing and placement. This game is TERRIFYING, but is also very manageable if you approach it with the mindset of it being a video game with strict rules, as the rules WILL be followed by all involved. Thank you Lockhill, I never thought I’d be brave enough to escape this game. Thank you for giving me the chance to prove myself wrong.

Very very scary room, I loved the immersion and each part of the room, I might have accidentally broke the elevator at the end but it just means that the room was so good and so terrifying !

There are three different modes of gameplay you can choose: Day: maximum puzzles, no actors, 90 mins Night: less/simpler puzzles, with live actors, 90 mins (same cost as day) Midnight: maximum puzzles, with live actors, 150 mins (additional cost) As we were already playing other horror games with actors in other rooms, we chose day mode to focus on puzzles, rather than another actor horror room experience. Even without live actors, this was a phenomenal room. The narrow claustrophobic hallways, disorienting layout, plenty of hidden nooks and outstanding theming made this a terrifying and thrilling experience. We were on edge the entire time even though we knew we would not encounter anyone.

By far the scariest room i have ever played.

Great immersion even without the actors option (I probably would have shit myself with actors). Great puzzles and time. Recommend it very much. Warning: bring extra shoes and hand wipes... Quite dusty floors.

A genuinely scary game (in Night mode) with really good scares, and several moments with high tension. Clear rules on how the threat works, which was fantastic - and really great volumetric use of the space, both for the actors and players.

We played the Midnight mode (extra riddles, extra horror) and I have to say one of the scariest experiences, the atmosphere alone is enough to make you anxious and the riddles where very nice. The overall great thing about the sanatorium and Lockhill in general is the gameplay which sets them apart from the rest.
