📖 THE STORY

Starting your story in the days of the old and fantastical, where magic controls the land. An evil wizard set to poison the area's river is loose and it is up to you and your team of fledgling wizards to prevent the dastardly deed from occurring. You have tracked the wizard down to an old house in the forest and just as you think you have him surrounded, he teleports away. Try to recreate the teleportation spell and find the wizard before disease takes the land.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

• WizardQuest utilizes the space they were given in a very well done manner. They manage to put secrets and hideaways in the most obvious spots while subverting expectations and still making it a surprise when it is revealed.

• The set design gives off a wonderful illusion that you have been transported to a new space, to a new world. Each step along the story's journey is well choreographed and the room's design enforces it.

• While completing the room, your group may be surprised just how many different types of puzzles are included in the game. There are high tech puzzles, logic puzzles, physical puzzles, there is a puzzle to please each person in your group
  

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

• I do not see any major issues with WizardQuest. It is an extremely well put together game.
  

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

WizardQuest is one of my favorite games in the St. Louis area. The game starts out exactly how the storyline says it should and follows a narrative path that helps the team get to the end goal. The puzzles all made sense and they were just hard enough to make sure our team thought through the solutions. The reveals all throughout the room are a ton of fun. When you solve each puzzle it truly feels like you are progressing and learning how to cast each spell, brew each potion, master the elements and even commune with nature.
