My review is more a criticism of the escape room than the main tour and i don't want to be so harsh but i think it needs a real overhaul, it could probably be really good but it just needs a writer/designer to come in and add/change elements because at the moment it is awful. Compared to other escape rooms the puzzles were really lacklustre and frankly boring. It was a lot of reading in a dim room and puzzles were very disjointed with no aha! moments.

We also got way too many hints, seriously i felt like we didn't have any time to actually try to work stuff out for ourselves pacing was horrible. I think it was a mixture of trigger happy hint staff but also i suspect that it happens because the clues are probably essential to the game somewhat as the puzzles seem really obtuse with nothing to subtly reference where to apply certain clues or how they fit into the room, usually there are little links to sortof make you think about another area and how an unlock will affect the room at large wheras here things didn't really make sense why we were doing a specific thing except the we were told to it so we did. It was just a series of instructions spoon fed through a screen at points and i don't think it was my group being dumb either i think it was part of the design of the room.

We ended up getting out really fast and it felt like a waste of money, really boring experience i regret paying for. The theme is nice and the main plot is fine if a tad bland but the actual puzzles were really lame and we didn't really feel a sense of achievement when we escaped like in other games and it felt very anticlimactic, hard pass on this escape room at present complete waste of money!

Regarding the tour i'd generally recommend though but feel we had a poor experience than past ones (i thoroughly enjoyed the Berlin, it's why i came back to do another) didn't realise how similar they'd be but would still have been enjoyable except we were packed into every room like tinned fish, not enough room for everyone to sit down, couldn't see/hear the actors half the time it felt kind of rushed and because it took so long to funnel everyone through doors you were stood around for ages and heard all the scares from the people ahead of you and ugh crying children. Unfortunately this one just wasn't very immersing for me. The actors were really good though especially the ones who managed to get the humour through correctly without being super overt but maybe don't sell so many tickets for one slot that it just spoils the vibe because if i hadn't been on a good Dungeon tour before i would have been completely lost (because i couldn't hear half the story) and i would have been really disappointed and thought the Dungeons were awful when I know they're actually not because i really enjoyed Berlin!
