🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
There is a really welcoming reception area with tables, games, drinks and even foosball
This room is a continuation of the story and Runaway Train room. When playing "Makeshift Morgue", we appreciated the small details that connected the two stories, such as reusing the names of the victims. It is not necessary to play Runaway Train first, but it might help deepen the immersion.
There are a lot tech-based puzzles that use computers, medical equipment, and other devices to elevate it above a room which just focuses on padlock opening.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
The story arch is confusing, we didn’t feel that the puzzles and the setting necessarily aligned with one another.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
For teams who want to focus primarily on puzzles then this has some really interesting things to complete. The room is mostly nonlinear, so teams can spread out and tackle different things at the same time, which is ideal for larger groups.
ℹ️ ADDITIONAL INFO
