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.

Niet op je tenen laten vallen

Deze locatie is van zichzelf al tof. Het ligt op een voormalig industriegebied in Winterthur dat inmiddels is herontwikkeld, maar nog steeds die rauwe industriële sfeer heeft. De escaperooms zitten in oude ondergrondse ruimtes van het complex. Een beetje urbex-achtig en wat mij betreft een perfecte plek voor escaperooms. Parkeren in parkeergarage om de hoek.
De introductie van de kamers wordt leuk gedaan.

Deze kamer vond ik qua decor eigenlijk vrij saai. Enkel op sommige plekken is slim gebruikgemaakt van originele elementen van de locatie en dat vond ik juist wel weer tof.
De puzzels zijn bijzonder. Het zijn eigenlijk het soort puzzels waar ik normaal gesproken niet zo van hou, maar hier zijn ze zó leuk en origineel uitgevoerd dat ze me juist wel konden bekoren. Net lang (of kort) genoeg. Er zit behoorlijk wat techniek in de kamer, afgewisseld met mechanische elementen, en de gameflow is goed. Van één element snap ik de toegevoegde waarde niet, maar misschien is dat wel leuk als je met 6 personen speelt.
Leuke klets gehad met de eigenaren, die zelf ook fervente escapers zijn. Dat vind ik altijd een pluspunt; je merkt dat de kamers gemaakt zijn door mensen die zelf ook graag spelen.
Van de drie kamers die we hier spelen vond ik de minste, en dat kwam vooral door de sfeer in de kamer.
