📖 THE STORY
The twin Tiki Gods of Turf and Surf, Niki and Riki are furious and the only way to please them is to feed them a delicious meal. The only problem is, Riki desires a particular seafood that can only be found in the roughest part of the ocean. Can you and your friends venture off to bring back this meal for the Tiki Gods before it's too late?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
The storyline for "Tiki Treasure Boat" was quite unique and definitely set us up for an adventure! Traveling out towards the roughest part of the sea (literally) is the highlight of this game.
When we first enter the room, we were inside a tiki hut. The lighting, drinks, surf boards, and music really brough out the island vibe.
Some of the puzzles were really creative. One that we particularly liked was a simple prop that you would see on a boat but through creative instructions we were able to solve for a solution.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
One or two puzzles in the room felt like the players needed a bit more instruction. We wouldn't have connected the two together or search for hidden items just based on seeing the clues given.
If the storyline could be implemented in a video format rather than GM giving it at the beginning, it'll make the mission more clear as we didn't actually know what we had to do to complete this room and felt that some parts were manually triggered but we didn't actually do it correctly.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
This has to be one of our favorite set designs and game from Amazing Escape Room (followed by "Top Secret Mission" at their Cherry Hill location). It's a really fun game with not so difficult puzzles that we really encourage beginners to play because you'll definitely want to try another escape room after this. If you haven't gone on a vacation for awhile and perhaps want to take an adventure out to the sea then you've found the right place!
