REVIEW SUMMARY

Story
So they are letting us use their WWII era submarine to retrieve the Galaxy Core?
That about sums it up.
I really don't want to ask too many questions in case they change their mind before we get to pilot a submarine.
You realize we have a dangerous mission and I'm guessing they picked us because 1) other people failed 2) we are the "red shirts" on this totem pole
Sorry I can't hear you over how awesome it is right now to be piloting a submarine. Think this makes me a captain?
You're a captain of something alright.
Review
Holy-immersion
I gotta start with the submarine but let me first say this room was a blast and you should play it.
Back to the sub, there is a trope in some vehicle-themed rooms that I genuinely am not a fan of when playing. I am not a big fan of, "now go press this button annnnnd now go press this button"
I'm happy to report, this room avoid that completely.
This is the most immersive vehicle I've experienced outside of a theme park or my car. Holy cow, I can write a complete review on this alone. It was amazing and I wish there was more to do. Don't get me wrong, there is a lot to do but I could have spend an hour in there and still would have craved more.
The rest of the room was breathtaking in it's grandeur and scope. One thing Keepers does an amazing job is using the height of the room to really make you feel a part of the experience.
The game play was fun, good mapping, some fun environment elements to play with beyond the sub. It was fun playing a little "jungle gym" in the room - climbing will be involved and not just a little. I am a bigger dude and I never felt unsafe or uncomfortable.
Overall a fun room. We finished it with two people but three to four would be perfect for everyone having something to do for the time in the experience.
Highly recommend Defenders.
