The total score of a review doesn't have to be the average of your subscores. Sometimes a room feels like it should deserve a higher (or lower) rating than the exact sum of its parts.

klassieke escape room met leuk niveau puzzels

De escape room was kwa aankleding goed in thema, maar niet super immersive. De kamers zou ik zelf niet doen met meer dan 3 spelers omdat de ruimte klein is en de puzzels niet parallel te doen zijn. Het niveau van de puzzels waren goed, leuk verzonnen, veel leeswerk en verschillende technieken. Verhaallijn is een bijzaak, wel terug te vinden in een paar puzzels.
