More about Swamp of Sorrow's

You move through the darkness and feel the damp atmosphere around you… You hear your breath getting faster and faster as you feel the danger approaching.

The infinite silence is interrupted by eerie screams and footsteps. You discover that you are not alone...

Some are beside you, in front of you, behind you. Everyone here for a reason. Same for everyone? You will need to find out soon. If you don't, you too will turn into one of those cursed creatures that roam around waiting to tear you to pieces.

The creatures that the Creator of magic sent to stop you. Nature has been imprisoned and your purpose is to restore order. If you don't, her tears and sadness will bring destruction.... Make the right decisions… Fast…

Additional options:

The game can be played as a role-playing game (RPG) by arrangement, with an additional cost to the group of €15

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.

Dit zaakje stinkt

#157 Swamp of Sorrows
Het is zomer, het is warm (eigenlijk veels te warm), maar het is tijd om naar Griekenland te gaan. Tijd voor een Athene trip 2.0. De locaties ga ik kort over zijn. Geen commentaar. Maar dit hoeft zeker niks te zeggen over het spel zelf en doet dat heel vaak ook zeker niet! De laatste dag speelden we The Maker's Curse

De ontvangst zal ik voor beide kamers samen doen. Een hele aardige, bedreven eigenaar met passie voor zn kamers. Echter die uitleg.... Het voelde ongelogen alsof ik een DnD handleiding van 420 pagina's aan het afluisteren was. Ik zal hier bij de puzzels iets verder over uitwijden want dan blijkt waarom dit zo is, maar iets met Occam's Razor had deze kamer geholpen denk ik. Levens, tokens en andere mechanisme passeerden de revue, volledig onnodig wat mij betreft.

Het verhaal was hetzelfde als de eerste kamer. Best prima, niet speciaal, maar prima. Als je de optionele puzzels doet waarschijnlijk nog een stuk diepgaander, maar toch.

De puzzels, tja.... Als je The Maker's Curse speelt laten ze puzzels weg uit de losse kamers, waarom, geen idee. Geef me een half uur per kamer langer en laat ze lekker erin zitten. Ook zaten er optionele puzzels in, zodat je meer "lore" kon bemachtigen. Voor mij wordt het door dit soort gekke fratsen vaak snel veel te onoverzichtelijk en ga ik me storen dat ik niet alle puzzels kan oplossen, simpelweg omdat het niet hoeft. Ja je kunt vantevoren zeggen dat het niet hoeft, maar nee, doe maar gewoon niet.

De beleving is wel tof! Sommige echt hele leuke toffe acties in thema. Kruipen, duiken en klimmen zat er allemaal in.

Tja, ik zou deze overslaan, tenzij je tijd over hebt. Als eerste escaper op escapetalk zou ik deze zeker niet aanraden.
