Prison Break – Walk the Mile

Fun prison room that felt a bit distinct from others of its kind! Unlike other ones I’ve played, all players start together and are trying to solve a mystery of who framed you using evidence. There is a lot to do though, so our small group of 2 barely got out with just a couple minutes to spare. There are a LOT of locks, digital, physical, and otherwise. And a bunch of reading or at least skimming is necessary, even if some of the information is unnecessary or extra. The hardest part was trying to organize all of the information and keys. It’s not always clear when you have like 5 locks in front of you constantly. Also, it seemed like the keys were somewhat interchangeable for us, which the GM didn’t know about. All in all, I still had fun with the room. The puzzles were tricky, but fair. The final puzzles were interesting. And the story was juicy and had enough clues for a mystery lover like me to piece together. Case closed, one truth prevails, there is only one truth!

very fun!

Different because at the end you put together clues and have to tell your GM the answer to the overarching plot. The room itself is a bit too chill and mellow though. The theme “prison break” has a sense of urgency and excitement but there wasn’t really any of that in the room.

Ok room with some decent puzzles and a pretty well done set design, can’t really achieve prison escape vibe.
