Witching Hour

Happened to be in Boston for the Mystery Hunt which coincided with the recent opening of Trapology’s newest room, The Witching Hour. This was an enjoyable room; mostly linear, with a few puzzles that can be done in parallel once you break past the initial area. There are some nice effects, although the finale felt anticlimactic (but I got the impression they are planning to add something more to the endgame). The build quality is good, as one expects from Trapology, and the puzzles are solid. We found one early puzzle a bit underclued but other than that we had little difficulty with 3 players. It is spooky/creepy with one pseudo-jump scare but nothing that is actually frightening. We had a good time. I’d say it is more difficult than The Retreat but not as challenging as Crush Depth or The Institute. Recommended.
