📖 THE STORY

The ancient and mythical lost city of Atlantis has been found! After your years of

research, you manage to discover its whereabouts and are the first to journey there.

the city to begin with. To save yourselves, and the city, you must find his lost trident and return it to him.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The decoration and production is incredibly well done, complete with a working waterfall and thematic sounds and lights that combine to provide an immersive experience.

  • The biggest win for this room was the ability to create puzzles, which forced the team to collaborate in order to progress. We enjoyed the separation element and how good communication became critical to our success.

  • Aside from the cooperative puzzles mentioned, the room also provides a good range of puzzle styles; searching, code breaking, dexterity, audio, and logic.

  • The room is simple but fun; we escaped quickly but still enjoyed every step of our journey.

  • Fantastic customer service from all the staff we encountered. Each was welcoming and eager for us to have a fun time.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • There were no glaringly obvious faults that stood out to us. As an experienced team we escaped in less than half an hour, so perhaps either more puzzles or harder challenges would have been appreciated (as an experienced player). However, just because a room is easy does not make it necessarily negative.

  • The story could be tightened up; it didn’t make the most sense to us. Essentially the room is divided into two main halves that are separated by the impassable waterfall (until you turn it off). We are not sure what each side of the room represents since they are both decorated the same way and so that confuses the reason why we need to move Neptune’s trident from one side to the other.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

"Lost City of Atlantis" is a striking room with an unusual theme and beautiful decoration. Despite its simplicity we would recommend everyone to play this whimsical adventure and enjoy the immersion into Neptune’s sunken city.


ℹ️ ADDITIONAL INFO
