Signing into the game, you will have to progress through 10 websites, each with its own puzzle. This is not a point-n-click type of game. Each webpage will have the same set up. The top will have the story and then as you scroll to the bottom of the page, you will get the puzzle and what you need to solve it. The bottom will have an answer box for you to input the answer. The game also included some familiar background music that you could have on during the game. It was nice that you could adjust the volume of the music, rather than just on and off.


The hint system works with a timer. Hints will unlock after you have been on the puzzle for 5

minutes and then you can use it without a penalty. If you decide to take the hint before then,

you will get a 5 min penalty at the end. At the bottom of the website, you can also find a nice

tracker that will tell you how long it took you to complete each puzzle. If you are playing as a team, the game will be synced. Only one player need to enter the answer and it'll progress for everyone. Make sure to inform all your teammates about these rules as if one player takes a hint, it'll reveal in the final score for everyone.

This game played more like a puzzle-hunt/ARG than an escape room. Most of the puzzles

required outside knowledge and for you to visit other websites. Some were linked for you and some you needed to ponder and figure out what you needed through the cryptic Messages. The ramping of the puzzles seemed a little off as the first puzzle was the one that took us the most time to complete and we were able to. It would have been nice for the game to inform us that outside knowledge is required in the intro as we were stumped on the first puzzle for awhile and then finally decided to Google.


One thing we did appreciate was that the answer will tell you the input and format, whether it was 4 numbers or a 2 English words. This took out the guess work on the format as well as

guided us to what we thought it should be. Make sure the language setting is correctly set on the upper righthand corner as if it's not on English, the input hints won't reveal.

We definitely learned a lot of new trivia night information and interesting new websites from this game that we will be using again in the future. You may need to know a little bit of tech trivia and some of today’s more popular apps to help you through the game. We played with 3 people but feel 4 to 5 people would be good as well. For any puzzle enthusiasts, you would be able to complete this in under an hour. For any Avengers fans, this would be a fun game to assemble a team for and take down Thanos, once and for all.
