Staff was friendly & helpful and check in was smooth. Don't bother to check in and fill out waivers online ahead of time. It is actually faster and easier to do it on site with their iPads. We started our game on time.
Because we had lots of kids we played the easiest room, Antidote. I found the scenario to be immersive and realistic. At a few points the scenario was a bit TOO realistic for some of he kids (but great fun for me). The difficulty of the puzzles was about what I expected. The room was much more elaborate than I expected. Because of the age of our group, the Game Master probably gave us more assistance than he would to a group of 6 adults. It helped keep the scenario moving and kept the kids engaged. I recommending discussing the level of assistance you would like with your Game Master ahead of time and I'm sure they will accommodate.
Overall it was great fun and I'm sure we'll be back. I'm hoping to convince my employer to do a team building event there.
Two minor quibbles: One of the locks was a bit tricky to open, even when you entered the correct combination and one of the visual puzzles was darn near impossible to solve, even when you knew how it worked and what you were looking for. In each case our game master (who appeared to be paying close attention to us the entire time) gave us enough assistance to avoid too much frustration. This facility is brand new so it's not surprising that everything isn't quite perfect. I think both of these issues are fixable and I would expect them to be resolved over time.
Description:
Dr. Walter Brandt is a high-ranking chemical weapons specialist for the United States government, part of a secret department that is only recognized by a series of mysterious numbers and letters. He has been developing powerful viruses capable of eradicating enemy forces with swift pace and deadly accuracy. Foreign powers have noted Dr. Brandt's work and have recruited him to develop a powerful virus capable of killing their enemies in hours. He has gone rogue and has become a threat to the US and potentially the entire human race. You are a team of scientists investigating Dr. Brandt's abandoned laboratory. You've been tasked with finding the only known antidote to virus TS-51 before it gets passed into enemy hands.However, during the investigation a clumsy member of your team bumps into a shelf, sending vials of the highly contagious virus crashing to the ground. One of them breaks and sends plumes of deadly vapor into the air. Immediately, everyone is infected but that isn't your biggest problem. The chemical detection sensor has picked up the threat and shut down the facility. Total decontamination will begin in 60 minutes (eliminating all biological organisms inside)!
Your only chance of survival is to scour Dr. Brandt’s laboratory to find the antidote. He has hidden it from the government through a series of riddles, puzzles, and codes that only the smartest can figure out. If you do not find the security override code and antidote within 1 hour the facility will self-destruct, and there will be no escape. Rely on your team, intellect, and keen sense of observation to solve the riddles and unlock the secrets to find the antidote and to escape the facility. Time is of the essence. Do you have what it takes to defeat Dr. Brandt and save yourselves and the World from destructive chemical warfare?
