🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
Upon entering the eerie subway station, an instant shiver ran down our spines. The unsettling ambiance created by the smudged blood, missing person's posters, and flickering lights intensified the chilling atmosphere.
We appreciated the gradual unveiling of clues as we opened lockers, boxes, and other items. It felt like we were uncovering evidence and information about the killer rather than it being readily available.
We discovered unexpected hidden spots that seemed to be used by the killer to store trophies, adding to the fear factor. We also enjoyed some of the jump scares that accompanied these discoveries.
True to the nature of horror films, the finale is sure to elicit a scream.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
There was a hidden clue in an area covered in graffiti, making it hard to spot.
We had a lot of fun assembling a cool puzzle, although we're not sure how it relates to the theme or the storyline.
In this room, the hint system requires players to text the Game Master using a phone, a distinctive but somewhat time-consuming method.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
Not many people may have seen this movie, but as I stepped into the eerie subway station, "The Midnight Meat Train" immediately sprang to mind. This is unique to us since we had never encountered an escape room with such a thrilling storyline before. The combination of excitement, fear, and anticipation created a palpable atmosphere as we proceeded with caution. Adding to our enthusiasm was the fact that this game had earned the prestigious 2020 Silver Winner of Player's Choice Bullseye Award.
Exploring the rundown subway station, we couldn't ignore the chilling hints provided by the missing person's posters scattered around. It was evident that something sinister lurked in the shadows of this place. However, our primary goal was not to succumb to fear but to unravel the mystery and apprehend the elusive killer. With each step we took, the suspense intensified, keeping us on edge as we delved deeper into the game. Do you possess the skills and courage required to navigate through the twists and turns of this thrilling escape room and ultimately capture the elusive killer? The challenge awaits...
