A really fun room! Not as large and complicated as some of the ones my brother and I have done lately -- our team of two escaped with a good amount of buffer time and no clues -- but it wasn't "too easy". The environment was charming and interesting, and several 'simple' puzzles were made more fun through mechanical contraptions. Some good 'aha' moments when we finally figured out something we'd been stuck on, and a nice flow where you have a good sense of your progress and can bounce between multiple puzzles when stuck.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating when we booked with short notice and then got lost on the way! We also appreciated out GM's restraint with clues: it was satisfying to get out with none.

Really enjoyed the themeing and the attention to detail in this room. We had to work hard for finding the solution to one puzzle, but we amazed ourselves at finally getting to the ‘Aha’ moments in this one. A good room for families as puzzles can be amended for difficulty level to suit younger players.
Gameplay
A couple of sticky moments when we missed something had changed/been achieved but a good game on the whole.
Atmosphere
Excellent build quality with plenty of detail to really draw you in.
