More about Defenders of the Sunken Realm

You’ve been summoned—alone, in secret. Mr. Matthews, the eccentric leader of the Keepers of Balance, has one obsession: the Talisman of the Ocean. It’s no longer safe, and only you can retrieve it.

Armed with strange gear and an aging submarine, you plunge into the depths of a hidden ocean realm to retrieve a lost artifact. And when you return, ask yourself: What did you really bring back with you? The Talisman awaits. But so does the cost.

‍Defenders of the Sunken Realm is an improved and reimagined version of the award winning game originally found at The Escapement.

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.

You fools!!

Kamer # 13 op onze Amerika/Canada trip.
Op naar Keepers of Balance! Een bedrijf waar onze vrienden werken en 1 waar we al veel over hebben gehoord. We beginnen met hun nieuwste kamer en deze is overgekocht uit Engeland.

Wij, als Keepers of Balance, moeten op zoek naar de helft van een artefact dat niet in de handen van Nemesis (onder aartsvijand) mag vallen. Het is het laatst gezien op de bodem van de oceaan.

Deze game valt op alle vlakken helaas enorm tegen. De set is echt lelijk en we voelden ons als een vis op het droge (badum tss). Nee zonder grap, het voelde als een 1.0 Escape room. Een paar puzzels die je al veel vaker hebt gezien en het was ook zo voorbij. Wij telden in de onderwater wereld 6 puzzels en dan moet je ervoor en erna nog wat doen om er te komen/weg te gaan. We waren in 40 minuten van de 60 weer buiten. Ik voelde gewoon geen connectie met ook maar iets in dit verhaal.
Heel jammer en een enorme gemiste kans. Ik hoop in de toekomst dat ze deze gewoon weg halen en de ruimte gebruiken voor iets anders. Lekker overslaan
