DO THIS -- so well constructed and lots of fun
Well, THAT was fun! We've done escape-room-like scavenger hunts in several cities, and so far, this one is our new favorite. It cleverly includes more escape-room like concepts and challenges by giving you a little box of envelopes (and a few other goodies). For the other non-Escapely games, we felt like there was too much walking. Here, it was just the right amount. On others, we had a lot more trouble finding stuff the game intended, or sometimes things were inaccessible or just gone -- not for this. For other scavenger hunts, getting hints was awkward, and we avoided them as much as possible, making it less fun. Here, they have a wonderful system of a hidden readily-available series of increasingly helpful hints -- so well done. For others, they make you use an app, which were occasionally buggy. Here, no app to download. It's all run through their website, and that worked very smoothly. We did run into one snafu that was all our fault. We still don't know how, but we lost an important card after we had just been holding it a couple minutes earlier. I contacted the company both via eMail and through their website, and I got a response with a picture of the card from both sources, one within just four minutes! There's no way they can always be THAT responsive, but they were this time, and so friendly too. For other scavenger hunts, they were fun and interesting, but we finished them with a sense of relief that it was over, and maybe we'd do one of those again in some other place. Here, it was much more a sense of well THAT was fun. And, we can't wait to do it again in other cities.
