I did not enjoy the linear puzzle solving of the game. I prefer free range puzzles where there is no: you have to start here and then proceede to here....
I happened to find the solution to the objective in the middle of the game and that ruined it a bit for me.
Every puzzle leads to another puzzle, yet only the last puzzle is of consequence. I prefer games where all the puzzle add something important to the game's objective.
Great game, had lots of fun together with friends
Great puzzles! really varied and fun. Unfortunately I was the teammember that just found solutions to puzzles before we did the puzzles, so we were left with clues we did not get. The website helped out, but that does feel like failing.
I shall try to be less nosey for the next game! ;)
Happy to be able playing mysteries at home instead of going to escape rooms!
Played it a couple of months ago. We had lots of fun! Solved it in two nights.
