📖 THE STORY

A long, long time ago, there was a magical place called SpellCraft. In SpellCraft, there were two witches, Evilinda and Spellinda. You and your friends have fallen into this story world and now have a decision to make. Will you work together or will you go your separate ways? May the best witch win!

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

• Being a fairytale lover, this was a dream come true. We were able to experience spell-making, mystical worlds, and enchanted items all in an hour's time.

• What a cool concept! We've played "good versus evil" types of games before none that had this many twists and turns. This game had us solve things separately, work as a team and finally, face each other!

• The puzzles incorporated various challenges that involved logic, physical obstacles, and even our senses.

• The set design was simply magical. Instead of going through an ordinary door, this game actually made us feel like we've physically traveled to another destination. The lighting and special effects made the story world come to life.

• My favorite part (it was difficult to pick one since I enjoyed everything) of this game was the ending. What an adrenaline rush!
  

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

• There was a prop in the game that was quite sensitive. Perhaps a signage or clue on what the players should do might help.

• One of the puzzles had a super long sequence. Perhaps for a larger group, it might be easier as more people could do the searching but for two people it felt like a time-eater puzzle.

• A lot of times we didn't know if we had triggered something in another part of the room or if something had opened. Being two people, it was difficult to cover a lot of areas. An added sound or light alert would be able to resolve this issue.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Before entering the rooms, we were given a choice of good or evil. Being that the "good side" looked all glittery and pink, it was a no-brainer for me to choose this side. It was definitely the "sweeter" side in my opinion. There were a couple of extra puzzles and for people with poor eyesight, this side was a lot brighter than the "evil side". This game was so much fun that when I got the key at the end, I didn't want to leave. "Spellcraft" is a whimsical, breathtaking, and enchanting production. This is a "must-play" on your next journey to Tulleys Escape Room.
