This game is three stories high. Each level is small, but it is neat to have a tall set like a castle. Some of the puzzles are high tech and that takes away from the medieval immersion,. One of the puzzles is something you’d find on a phone app. There is also a good amount of searching for items. That said, many of the puzzles are fun and they are all on the easier side. The storyline moves along as you go. We really enjoyed the game and experience.

This game was my first experience at Countdown Games and it set a really high standard! This room is super immersive, unique, and impressive.

Gameplay

Even though the theme is pretty generic, The Castle is a super unique game! Everything that unlocks is surprising and satisfying. Everything flows very smoothly.

Atmosphere

This room is awesome. The atmosphere was so immersive that we thought that the skylight was a screen and it wasn’t actually raining outside.

Customer service

The game master was great at helping us but wasn’t the most inviting. Not bad though.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

This was a three story castle with a working drawbridge, yes it was interesting and different.

Story

The story was a little less unique than the setting but it made sense and set the scene.

Difficulty

It wasn’t super easy but it wasn’t crazy hard. Very doable with the right amount of people looking for the right things.

There was a lot of going up and down stairs but other than that it wasn’t incredibly active.

Accessibility

Very restrictive for mobility issues given the amount of stairs. Other issues with accessibility could be bypassed by working with teammates.

Easy to find location

Yes

This location is giant and stands out a lot.

Parking

Medium

Lots of parking but also relatively busy.

It included puzzles with touch screens. But at the same time I felt like I was playing hide and seek in the castle.

Ideal number of players

I would say 6-10 people. There are multiple puzzles that could be worked on at the same time.

Good story and puzzles, but the best part of the game was the room itself. This game is set in a replica of a castle made with real stone with multiple floors and many rooms!

Wonderful set build - you forget you’re actually still inside! Our team of 4 had a great time, definitely a bit more physical than your average escape room.

This was the most incredible build I’ve ever seen but the game play was lacking imo. Some repetitive puzzles, some sequence style that were very difficult with nothing to write on! If you’re here, you probably don’t want to miss it though.

Beautiful room!! Lots of detail put into the construction of this one. The puzzles were too repetitive. Too much up and down the stairs between each puzzle. Biggest issue was not having something to write with

While it was a 3-story castle, there wasn’t much to it. There weren’t that many puzzles but running up and down the stairs made everything take longer - basically adding difficulty by sucking time. Also having nothing to write notes on made it more difficult, again not in a fun way.
