    If you’ve done this kind of thing before, this will be challenging but not obtuse. No hints required, and a 2-person team finished in 75 minutes (the game didn’t even suggest 2 players as an option and said it would take 3-5 players 2 hours!. Everything made logical sense, so the puzzles really clicked well. The story was also surprisingly touching. Very well done.

    Easy without being a joke, this set of puzzles will scratch your brain just a little, but it's not any Journal 29 levels of craziness!

    The variety of puzzles sets this series apart. There are rope puzzles and other types of object manipulation beyond the cutting that you may be used to from the Exit series. Also, the narrative is much stronger than either Exit or Unlock.

    Having a truly 3D environment and “rooms” to explore for a home game was quite novel. There were many solutions that made very little sense, but still, the combination of so many unique elements has to be applauded. The story, while not written very well, was quite fitting to the theme, and it has a satisfying conclusion. One of the most memorable home escape rooms you’ll play!
