The Escape Room Guys – Contagion.
Location: Derby
Game Date: 18/07/2018.
Team: Amy, Ian, Ashleigh & Laurence
Theme:
“Following a virus outbreak from a secure government facility, you and your team have just 60 minutes to find the cure to prevent a pandemic.”
The theme was simple, but clean and appropriate, there was enough to give a feeling of immersion but nothing that was out of place or distracting, and the decor was used to great effect within the puzzles. The room was plenty large enough to accommodate the max number of players and well lit throughout
Game Play:
A linear game that had plenty of different puzzle types, maths, word, logic, observation & searching. The puzzles came thick and fast and were never dull or disparate.
All the puzzles were on theme, logical and solvable with excellent Ah-ha moments, the puzzles really drew us together as a team, at several points we all had input on a singular puzzle, which was wonderful, a real team effort!
The logic in the game was impeccable, with clear signposting leading to concise answers and locks popping open with ease. This lead to a wonderful flow throughout the game, keeping all 4 of us busy, entertained and satisfied!
A really good, slick and solid game that will please enthusiasts and push newbies to up their game! Incredibly enjoyable!
Clue System:
Clues were delivered via a screen
Game Host:
Jon and Adam were our game hosts, they were friendly and chatty and delivered a great brief.
Did we escape?
Yes! In about 40 minutes, with no clues!
