🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

• The decor and props had a medieval vibe. The final reveal bought back memories from the Game of Thrones episode.

• The display used for the clue system fits nicely with the theme of the room. Every clue appeared like someone was writing a script font on a scroll.

• There's a cool apparatus in the game that we haven't seen before. It was a clever way of not using too much tech but still creating a different way of releasing a lock.
  

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

• The lighting was pretty dim and the lamps in the room didn't really help much. It was pretty difficult to find clues. At one point we couldn't even find the keyhole for us to insert the key.

• It seems to be difficult for the gamemaster to hear or see us in the control room as the clues given were not what we had asked for. However, we were able to hear the sounds from upstairs. If you had a choice, book the downstairs room for better soundproofing.

• One of the riddles could be interpreted in different ways where the answer would also be different. We recommend bolting things down to eliminate the red herring.

• One of the props needed to be updated as the puzzle solution could vary. Since the answer needed to be an exact digit, the prop should be able to display that as well.

• As careful players, we wouldn't assume we could stand on furniture or reach up too high. This could be easily resolved by locking the item up elsewhere.

• One of the visual clues was not clear in terms of the illustration. Perhaps this could be replaced with a word clue or a different image.
  

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

If you are a "Game Of Thrones" fan, you'll probably have flashbacks of the show while playing the game. However, having watched the show is not going to put you at an advantage in solving any of the puzzles. Talking about saving the best for last, the finale of the game was what a true GOT fan would be very excited about. Think you got what it takes to save your kingdom?
