📖 THE STORY

Weekend getaways to Cape Cod are always fun in the summer! However, the traffic heading back home is always brutal! Rumor has it that there's a secret tunnel between Cape Cod and the mainland. Can you locate it and uncover the passageway?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

Although this game was set up in a smaller space, it was packed with puzzles! The puzzle designer implemented a lot of the history of Cape Cod into the puzzles and it was nice to learn as we were solving our way through the game.
This room was definitely more of a traditional game. However, it did utilize some basic props in a really unique way. There were interesting ways that we had to observe certain puzzles from different perspectives.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

There were a few puzzles that felt like they were put in there just to eat up time. Although, if you have a bigger group, it might help the assembly speed. But we would rather do those types of puzzles during leisure times at home.
If there could be a space in the room somewhere that we could utilize to assemble some of the puzzle pieces, that would be great as currently it was kind of awkward placing everything on the floor/sand.
There was a physical puzzle that required us to use a tool which was a cool concept. But the tool was not very sturdy, which made it rather difficult especially if you're shorter in height.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Since this is a seasonal room, you might want to make it out there before they take it down for the holidays. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's labeled as a kids room as it was quite challenging even for us. If you enjoy history, especially about Cape Cod, you might just discover some "treasures" along the way.
