📖 THE STORY

There were series of murders happening in the month of October and it seems like the evidence is all pointing to Lenny. Lenny seemed to have killed his own wife on their wedding night. We were sent into his lair to investigate and bring back evidence to put this man back in jail.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

Eerie feeling was immediately felt when entered the room.
Game master did a great job on controlling the players emotions and reactions as the story developed.
Few surprising elements created a few jump scares from us but did not hinder us from solving puzzles.
Enjoyed a simple use of a “trick lock” which we haven’t seen before.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

A bit hard to see at times when light was needed for certain puzzles.
Understood the final puzzle had an interesting element which made it a bit harder but did not really understand the logic behind it since now we feel like one “spot” is missing.
Some music would be a great add on to enhance the creepy ambience

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

If you like a little intensity mixed in with some elements of horror, you’ll love this room. Normally, I don’t like haunted house kind of “scream” scares so I would avoid this type of escape room. But this one was not that type of room. The interaction element was quite enjoyable. Do note that most of the time you’ll be playing in a dim lit setting, so if you have any issues with that make sure you bring a teammate with better eyesight.

🔎 HINT

Make sure you're always "watching"...
