Mystic Chamber

Overall, a solid room. One thing that’s less apparent from the story on the website until you get playing is that it’s lightly comedic. Yes, there are stakes and it’s somewhat a serious situation described, but the character of the antagonist is played as a bit less menacing and a bit more bumbling - which is NOT a complaint, it was fun and made us all laugh, but I think we were expecting a straight horror/suspense room and got a bit more PG-13 YA villain. Again, totally fine, zero complaints, just understand it’s more light-hearted than the summary may lead you to believe.

This room was not a hit for my team. A lot of random searching in places and some very time-wasting puzzles. The space is on the smaller size with an okay design. Probably the weakest Conundrum room I have done from a brand that is very consitent

Fun room with some unique puzzles I haven’t seen elsewhere. Everything flowed together quite well, and the room has puzzles for a variety of skill sets.

Conundrum rooms are amazingly challenging. Me and my group have a very low fail rate, but we have always failed these. That’s not a bad thing whatsoever. The rooms are so much fun, and have great psychological elements.

There was one puzzle that was a bit of a time waster which was a bummer. Not a lot of skill. Just time. But other than that, it was good.

This was a really fun room. The GM was perfect. She even gave my upset toddler a toy to keep her occupied. Everything flowed well and we saw a couple mechanics we had not seen before. We especially enjoyed the sun and moon puzzle. Great for kids and families.
