So much fun! Hounds have such a consistent high quality throughout their games and their newest venture does not disappoint! My group was one of the first to play this as a test game and even during its trial period, it was faultless. A nice mixture of puzzles, something for everyone! The set design is beautiful and the experience is so immersive - even down to the actor GMs staying in character for your whole visit! Definitely a must-play, everyone should add this to their wishlist!

Such a great experience! Atmosphere and theme was so immersive and the whole set and mechanics are hand built by the owners, and it’s still one of the best sets I’ve seen. Puzzles were fairly straightforward but there was just enough moving around and activity to make it enjoyable. Highly recommend this family owned company as this was an amazing first game and they were all super friendly.

4/10 on puzzle difficulty as it’s family friendly, but there are a large amount of puzzles to solve so that adds to the challenge of the game
