A visit with my family of 5 (3 teenagers). Fabulous decor in line with the storyline and a mainly non linear set up at times which is good for bigger parties like us as we were all kept busy. Puzzles were a good, mixed variety and host was in character and friendly - she did give us a lot of clues (I prefer to ask for mine) but to be fair I'm not sure we'd have got out in time without them. There was a car park right next door for easy access.

This game looked really good, pretty immersive set. The puzzles weren’t too difficult but required some teamwork and some out of the box thinking. Not a lot of technical aspects but that suits the olden day theming. Briefing was given in character, the GM was great and very friendly.
