The good Doctor has always been a fan of clever games...especially over a vintage bottle of Amarone and an exquisite Foie de Veau painstakingly crafted with, ahem, extra special ingredients. After a lifetime of searching, you have finally found his hidden study. Your task: crack the fiendishly clever puzzle he left behind, before the dinner bell chimes.

Slightly on the darker side of life. A good room for everyone from beginners to experienced players. Recommend for 6-8 players, can hold 10. (Difficulty 6/10) Bon Appetit!

Theme Rating: 4.5/5

Why We Liked It:
*puzzles/clues were interesting and creative
*clues are on a monitor prompted by the game master that is watching you, meaning they know EXACTLY where you are in the game and can help you! (aka: no waiting around or explaining to them)
*theme and props were intentional

Need to Know:
*some puzzles will take some time to solve, especially the last two puzzles - clues from the gamemaster are essential
*very detail-oriented
*team members were able to work on multiple puzzles at the same time, but some were linear

Clue Preservation? (do you need to keep everything in order to escape?): NO
Handicap Accessible? YES
Is It Worth Playing? YES
Did We Escape? NO
Overall Rating: 4/5
