📖 THE STORY
A nuclear power plant has started to overheat and radar detects that a cabin located 20 miles away looks to be the cause of it. It appears that there's large spike in energy consumption and if this continues, we're there's going to be a meltdown in an hour. Your team of nuclear physicists and engineers have been requested to visit the cabin and discover the source and shut it down!

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
This room is newly built so when we enter "The Cabin", it still had that fresh wood smell which was a natural immersion that took us right into the story.
The transition of the cabin into something else that we didn't anticipate towards the end of the game was a pleasant surprise in terms of set design (although on the day when we played this game, the prop was malfunctioned so we can't fully comment on this part of the game)
The mechanism looked really cool and if it had worked (the GM explained to us how it would have worked) would be a great ending
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
There was a counting puzzle where the wording for the items were debatable. Counting puzzles are already usually quite difficult as we need to find the "hidden" items at times so it's essential that the items need to be specific and not questionable.
The replacement puzzles didn't seem to fit in with the theme of the cabin so once the actual game fully functional we hope these components will be removed.
There was a cool prop that also didn't work that was in the room, the clue paper was confusing as we still had to do it in order to get the solution but there was no way we could have solved it since it was broken. It was be great to at least give us a heads up prior to game play so we know to anticipate this and the GM can help us get through this part versus us having to wait around.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
"The Cabin" definitely has potential to become a player's favorite at this location due to the twist in the storyline and the mechanics (if they all worked). We understand that sometimes there's mechanic issues and they can not be repaired on the spot. It would be better that the players are informed ahead of time rather than receiving it as a surprise in the middle of the game. Last time we checked with the location they had said that everything is all in working condition so let us know how your experience is in the cabin! Did you end up saving the world?

Fresh poppy pods are the seed pods that are harvested from the poppy flower. Poppies are known for their beautiful flowers, but it’s their seed pods that are of the most value.
