“An old will has been uncovered from a distant relative. It explains that a vast number of jewels have been buried with them ready to be found by one of their heirs. However, it won’t be no easy task, there will be a few obstacles along the way and the crypt keeper patrols every hour.

Discover your legacy and claim what is rightfully yours!”

Theming was great in Legacy, with the outdoor graveyard leading into the vault looking great. The finish was excellent in the room and it was clean and tidy, with nothing out of place or being able to be misconstrued as a puzzle.
The space was lit well, and large, A team of 6 will have no problem in this room.

Game Play:
An open game that was beautifully constructed, with plenty of different puzzle types, observation, word, physical, searching, logic, smell, skill.
The puzzles were all on theme, and great in their logic with lovely fun ah-ha moment that gave an excellent satisfaction and no ambiguity in the answers.
Flow was great with clear, clean signposting that guided you to the puzzles and left you in no doubt of the answers but left you towork out the puzzles in a logical and enjoyable way.
There was a mechanic used in the room which was cheeky, but when all was said and done was a unique twist that surprised us and left us fooled but amused!
Enthusiasts, take a 2 as this is a game where you’ll want to experience all the puzzles and goodies this room has to offer. Newbies, 4 will be plenty!
