Somehow, you've ended up in Wonderland! Quick! Before you disappear with time, you must escape this world. Maybe Alice could give you some guidance?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

The set design does give the players the satisfaction of traversing through various parts of this magical world. The changes in the "scenery" makes us want to keep going forever.
There were a few physical puzzles designed to emphasize teamwork which was a nice added touch.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

Some props felt like they needed a fresh coat of paint.
It would be helpful to add some sounds or lights to alert players, especially for items that were opened or clues that were given (there was a clue that we didn't know we'd only received half of the information until the GM had to inform us).
The finale felt anti-climactic in terms of how we actually "escaped" Wonderland.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

This room is a great beginner's room for teamwork. But the puzzles are linear so I would suggest no more than 2-3ppl being the ideal number of players. The puzzles were quite easy to figure out as most were task-oriented rather than logical. Although the props were themed to Wonderland, the puzzles didn't really make us feel like they were related to a storyline per se. The room is definitely geared more towards "fun" as the goal rather than giving hardcore enthusiasts the satisfaction of puzzling. If you love "Alice in Wonderland", you'll probably still have a Wonderful time as you'll be "greeted" by many of your favorite characters from the story.
