This was a pretty standard "stop the explosion" scenario. There were however well over 10 mechanical locks to open in dim light...not an ideal pairing. Overall, the puzzle solving was fun, but the momentum slowed or came to a screeching halt as you took the 4-digit code you just discovered and tried to figure out which of the multitude of locks it matched to. Many of the locks used symbols to associate the puzzle to which lock it matched to...but not all.

Gameplay

Definitely not a linear room (which we were warned about ahead of time, as we just had two players). Nothing particularly novel or particularly fun...just some good old-fashioned puzzling.

Atmosphere

Lots of panels with lots of switches, buttons and things to press or flip.

Customer service

The GM, Freddy, let us take an extra ten minutes or so to solve the remainder of the room, which was a great bonus.

Just dark...but you were given several lanterns.
