📖 THE STORY

Psychiatrist Alfred Milgram forms a close bond with the people under his care, using his own experimental forms of medication to try and cure them of their illness. His treatments ultimately proved unsuccessful in one particular case, the case of Jules Early. As a friend of Jules, you visit the doctor to try and find out what went wrong.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The biggest highlight for us was the very beginning of the game. The way the story kicks off is quite special and something rather unique. I wish more games could throw you in the deep-end this quickly! To get the most out of this experience, our advice would be to use the bathroom before you arrive. This will make the beginning more fluid and impactful. Unfortunately, we can’t discuss it more without potential spoilers.

  • The room focuses heavily on story telling and development. There is numerous video content along the way which keeps the theme very much alive and maintains high levels of tension.

  • One of the videos is connected directly to a puzzle and the actions you take during that time will help determine one of two possible endings. Having alternate endings is another unique aspect to this room.

  • The room contains a few impressive special effects that provide a couple of ‘wow’ moments.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • Although the puzzles made sense with the story and were logical to complete, we didn’t find them to be that fun to work through. It wasn’t that there was anything wrong with them, they just didn’t click with our team.

  • The appearance of the rooms was ok, perhaps a little bland and dated.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

For teams who enjoy immersion and want to experience something a little different this could be worth a try. The story remains a focal point of the game throughout, something which can sometimes get forgotten in other games, however the strength and depth of the puzzles can feel lackluster at times.
