Mark as done to rate

The Reel has the best movie theater popcorn that money can buy. Radically buttery, salty, and crunchy – no other concession stand can compete. Literally! You are the disgruntled owners of a rival theater in town, and the only hope of saving your business relies on a heist most triumphant! Luckily, The Reel’s bogus manager brags about his "secret recipe" to anyone who will listen. More than once, he has let slip that the key to ultimate popped perfection is locked up somewhere on the premises. You can only hope to have enough time to find and snag the secret recipe for your own devilish snack-selling plans!

Certainly it was reel-y good but not amazing. Puzzles are very linear. Thematic is good. Puzzle effect allows photos in rooms which is fun!
