Locked in Leeds – Hotel Heist

Locked in Leeds – Hotel Heist
Location: Leeds
Game Date: 22/02/2019
Team: Amy & Ian

Theme:
The Hotel Paradise is a haven of five-star luxury and exceptional customer service. As the hotel’s manager, you are rightly proud of the spotless reputation you have built up with decades of hard work and dedication. But one morning you receive a call which threatens to shatter the Hotel Paradise’s good name. Lady Murdoch-Westwell claims an exquisite diamond necklace and a sapphire ring have been stolen from her room as she dined in the hotel’s bistro. Pointing the finger at one of the hotel’s maids, she has already put an expensive claim in to her insurers. You trust your staff and are sure she must be lying but can you prove their innocence and protect the hotel’s future?

Theming was immaculate in this hotel themed room, we joked that it was niced than the hotel we stayed in whilst we were in Leeds (well..it actually was!)
The decor was classy, and there were enough probs to create an immersive atmosphere without creating distractions or red-herrings.
A large and spacious room, that was well lit. An all round lovely space to spend and hour in.

Game Play:
A linear game with observation, math, word, searching and logic puzzles. The puzzles were all on theme and excellent in their logic.
Interesting puzzles and unique touches made this room lovely to play, with all the puzzles having lovely ah-ha moments those moments at some points coming at the culmination of the room, and after gathering lots of small pieces of puzzle to come together.
The logic in the puzzles was great, with the answers being concise and with little ambiguity.
The signposting was subtle but available and there were never any moments that were deliberately misdirected.
The flow was good, with all the puzzles leading to gathering enough evidence to make our escape.
Another great room for beginners, or enthusiasts alike.
