a knight to escape
Review
This was a fun room.
This is the longest/fastest room we have played as a team. It's a two-hour room and we needed most of that time in here based on the volume of puzzles, the nature of tasks and the challenge rating of some of the elements in the room.
However everything was on-theme, was intuitive and really flowed well.
It is a split start and one team is in the dark side of things and the other has more light. You have light sources on the dark side team so do not fret about playability (they let you know as you start so this is not a spoiler).
The immersion is top notch and Escape Effect really has a special touch for making the environment feel special. Try their other rooms to see for yourself.
This room, bring a big crew and this one is not scary outside of the fantasy type feel so the kiddos should enjoy this one and there are some tasks they could be helpful with throughout the game play.
Communication is key between the rooms as about 2/3rds of the game will be split.
Super fun room and highly recommend it (for team building too as the footprint is big).
Story
Funny ...
Because the taller people are in this room when the shorter group has a puzzle that would be easier for people with height?
That is funny but ...
Because something two D&D nerds like us would understand with limited clues is in the other room to solve?
Yes but I was thinking more along the lines that we kinda accidentally "picked" this lock and they keep giving us clues to solve it.
Should we tell them?
Nah, it's peaceful in here.
