📖 THE STORY
Wandering the forest with hunger in your belly, you and your group stumble upon a house made entirely out of candy and sweets. Walking closer to take a bite, you all realized that it is a trap and the witch who lives in the house has captured you. After throwing you into a cell and chaining you up, she leaves to collect things to fatten you up. Now is your chance to try to get away.
🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
The rooms were setup and decorated creatively. We felt like we were in a witch’s cabin from the children play-sets to a forest-y look.
The transition from the first room to next room was creative, fit into the theme and was fun to experience.
There were some puzzles that required us to think outside the box and not go with the obvious method to solve the puzzle. This resulted in some true eureka moments.
They used the space well with lots of puzzles and discovery to be found in the nooks and crannies of the room.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
The room was fairly dark and with only one main flashlight and a smaller flashlight for all 6 of us, there was a lot of standing around without much to do for some.
A couple of puzzles were clued awkwardly and made us unsure if we used the prop properly or what the correct way to input the answer was.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
"Hansel & Gretel" had some fun moments and clever puzzles which led to some great eureka moments. The set immersed us into the story with its great look. The clues were given in both English and Spanish which was helpful for us tourists. We played with 6 people but would
recommend playing with only 2 or 3 people due to the one flashlight so as not to have too many people standing around. The room can be booked as a regular experience or a kid friendly experience. We booked the kid friendly version but judging by pictures around the facility, believe the regular experience would add some scares to the experience. For anyone who enjoys a great set, some creative puzzles or a fan of fairy tales, this is a room for you.
