📖 THE STORY

There's a battle going on in regards to the inheritance of Duke Godfrey the Hunchback. Only by finding the last words of Rabbi Shlomo Yitzhaki on page 29a will this battle be resolved. Can you, as his faithful student, stop this war?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The set design had just the right amount of ambiance to make us feel like we were sent back in time. The pebble street, wooden fruit stand, and flaming torches assisted with the scenography.

  • There were a few instances where basic props were utilized in puzzles but were done in very creative ways. This room was a perfect example of not needing high tech or expensive budget in order to make a room fun.

  • Although the theme might sound like there's a lot of reading, it was quite the opposite. We learned about history through the process of solving puzzles.

  • The creator took the time to think about what made sense during the 1100s and it really shows in the props that were used in this room. There were nothing that felt out of the place.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • One part of the room felt like it could be utilized more.

  • There was a clue that we never got to use and ended up solving the puzzle without it. It caused confusion for us later on. I'm not sure if it was necessary.


🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

I love rooms that could incorporate educational content into the game without feeling like we were in school. The creator did a great job of recreating this important moment in history and gave the players the opportunity to learn about it through a fun experience. This room was totally revamped so if you've played this game before, definitely come and replay it again! The company also has plans to redo their other room as well so we can't wait to come back and check it out in the future!
