Story

So this is an abandoned escape room who's previous owner REDACTED.

Totally, and in 2016 there were two mysterious deaths of their employees. 

There is this urban legend about The Bag Man. Who REDACTED. 

Wow

Wow

And now we are here. 

Now we are here. 

Is that light supposed to be doing that? 

Review

What an amazing balance of scares, narrative and just smart design.

This might be the briefest review I write about one of my favorite rooms to play. 

I want to go into details about why things are smart, why things are intuitive, why the mapping and flow worked so damn well and why it's definitely in my top list of games to play but I can't. 

Any of those answers would spoil it. 

I'll just say, if you like escape rooms - play this room. If scary isn't your thing, this is a good starter room for you. The scary element drives the story and mapping. You can also ask to be on the fringe of the game play. I'd recommend not doing that because somethings it's less scary to be in the middle of things vs on the edge of things (I wish I could give more details but I can't).

Go play this room ... right now. Go ... then play Wrecked and Coral Kingdom
