WeaknessesOccasional technical inconsistencies can slow the pace, and some translations or instructions have had inaccuracies. Some players find the price steep, and one task requires too specific mathematical thinking.
StrengthsA very good detective story that holds attention and brings the room’s details into play. Puzzles are generally fair, logical, and diverse, with fresh surprises. Staff are warm and supportive, guiding both beginners and experienced players well.
SecurityA proper brief is done before the game; the environment is safe and no physical force is needed. If you get stuck with a prop, ask for clarification to avoid over-prying.
Level of fearNo horror elements, rather a tense detective atmosphere. Suitable for children and families; at a few moments it can be slightly dim or tense, but not scary.
Actors' gameGame masters are repeatedly praised: friendly, attentive, and give hints exactly on time. Interaction happens via the pre-game briefing and in-game hints; the names Hanna and Veronica are mentioned with thanks.
Quality of riddlesFocus is on logic, attention, and deduction; non-linearity lets everyone have something to do. Many tasks are clear and “fair”, sometimes with clever mechanisms and unexpected twists. A few reviews were bothered by the precision of the safe’s button and one math-leaning task.
PlotA classic murder mystery from Sherlock’s world: find the culprit and the crime scene by following the clues. Some felt the culprit identification could shine through the story more at times, but the overall impression is coherent.
Difficulty levelMedium difficulty, fully doable for a beginner with hints; ideal for two to three, solo can be hard. The non-linearity may confuse at first, but the pace picks up soon.
