Onboard the famous trans-European Budapest Express, you are with Karine Peaufiner, a famous French detective from Paris. You are traveling to Budapest to meet with other detectives showcasing the latest developments in crime scene forensics. It is nighttime and you are passing slowly through the heart of Europe during a heavy snowstorm. You are reviewing case notes in your cabin with Karine and your colleagues. Suddenly there is a knock at the door, it is the train manager. He looks worried and asks you to come quickly to the First Class dining coach. When you arrive, you see a man slumped over a restaurant table. He was Sir Clarence Hayden and he has been murdered! The manager informs you that in one hour the train will stop at the next station, if the killer hasn’t been apprehended, they will be free to escape into the night and get away with this horrible crime! Your reputation as brilliant detectives precedes you, he asks you to solve the crime so the murderer can be caught and brought to justice. You’re able to narrow down 5 suspects who were seen in the dining car around the time Sir Clarence was murdered. Moving through the cabins and gathering evidence, the killer knows you are hot on their trail and has decided you are their next target. With you out of the picture, they would be free to escape when the train stops. Solve the riddles and puzzles, gather the evidence and solve the murder before it’s too late! Do you have what it takes to find the killer before they find you? Time is of the essence!

I believe this room to be very different from a lot of the escape rooms in the area, what made this room stand out was the amount of reading and papers the room had, reading isn’t one of my groups strong points so it definitely hit us hard, but if you like escape rooms with a lot of reading should definitely give this room a try, the props were alright this time around not too ratty, I like how they tied the puzzle to the storyline and character connections, I wouldn’t say this is there best room at this location but decent. I personally give it a 6.5/10.
It was decent, A WHOLE LOT OF READING
Could some some refresh, one of the tv was glitching when we played
The game host we’re nice, but game masters felt weird with us
No
Murder mystery’s are pretty popular in nj but their theming was different
Somewhat I can barely remember the story cause of how much reading there was but it was cool to how they integrated the story with the puzzle
Hard
It was tough, if reading isn’t your strong point
Mechanical
A lot of physical locks and key but a little tech in there

Organization is key in this room if you want to solve the mystery. A good room for those with a love murder mysteries and brain teasers. Lots of red herrings and items that will come in handy more than once so be sure not to just put things aside once you believe you are “done.”
No
The story is a core part as you need a little of everything you have found or done to solve the central mystery

Smaller space with areas where you can split up a little bit

One of the TVs was malfunctioning so not game breaking but noticeable and killed some immersion.

There is a partially auditory puzzle and the space is on the smaller side and a big narrow so there may be some difficulty navigating a wheelchair but plenty of seating if you have people who can’t stand long.

I really loved the design of this room. There were some red herrings and a lot of props which made it difficult if you’re not organized. Impressive room and lots of fun. Didn’t make it out but one I’d definitely do again!!
Very cool
