Part of the review, where we hit the bullseye:
🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
• The environment is by turns intense and heavy. The atmosphere is curated to provide not just sights and sounds that transport you but also stimulate all of your senses.
• The construction is from metal and stone, adding gritty realism to the weight of the adventure itself. It is a large space with many dark areas and dim lighting, but we were able to see everything we needed, as well as make our way around without fumbling.
• The experience moves smoothly between generating an ominous sense of dread and providing some time and space to process the experience and work on the puzzles.
• Some of the puzzles are more challenging than many found in the more experiential horror/thriller rooms of the Netherlands, and require you to draw upon multiple sources of information and work effectively as a team, which we very much appreciated!
• The story develops as you move through the many stages of the initiation, and provides an interactive, satisfying conclusion in which you are a full participant, rather than observer. No ending video wrap-up for this room! You make it happen.
