📖 THE STORY

As top level spies, your mission is to retrieve top secret missile blueprints from an enemy military compound. To achieve this daring task, you have intentionally allowed yourselves to be caught and imprisoned. Now, you must escape and break into their high security vault in order to retrieve the documents.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

• Yes! A Game Over room which has plentiful props and decorations which exist outside of those connected to puzzles. The room design was not overly fancy, but it was functional and thematic, the impressive assortment of props helped raise the immersion to a higher level than in any of the other games at this location.

• In addition to the decor, the game also has a couple of cool special effects inside the safe which created a fun and daring atmosphere, making us feel like we were in a Mission Impossible movie.

• The game comes with an interesting assortment of puzzles which are all relatable to the military or spy theme. We particularly liked the dexterity moments, which coincidentally also encompassed a team based challenge.

• In addition to a high quality set design and impressive puzzles, Top Secret also pays attention to the storyline. We had to progress through each stage, escaping prison, collecting our weapons, cracking into the vault, and finally stealing the blueprints.
  

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

• There wasn’t too much by way of misses in this experience. I would have liked better room lighting, as I feel making rooms overly dark for atmospheric reasoning is not always a good idea.
  

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

If you're looking to channel your inner spy for a day, this experience is perfect for you! This is the most challenging room at the GAME OVER location, but it's also the most rewarding. While I might hesitate to recommend it to beginners due to its difficulty, seasoned teams will definitely find it a thrilling challenge.
