📖 THE STORY

While backpacking with your friends, you diligently adhere to all trail markers. However, after hiking for a significantly longer period than expected, you start to worry that you might have been misled. As nightfall approaches and a storm threatens from above, your route concludes at a rustic cabin in the wilderness.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The set design perfectly captured the stormy night with lightning and thunder outside in the wilderness, and the eerie darkness inside the cabin.

  • It was intriguing to discover clues left by previous hikers and use them to solve puzzles, as if they were assisting us in our escape.

  • We thoroughly enjoyed figuring out how to enter the cabin.

  • There was a puzzle we particularly liked that involved interaction with the GM, which was both entertaining and appropriate for the situation.

  • The props effectively highlighted the gore elements, and the intensity increased as we got closer to solving the mystery.

  • The sound effects and lighting significantly enhanced the immersion.

  • We don't want to spoil anything, but the ending was applause-worthy.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • One of the deduction puzzles were a bit confusing on the wording. We think it could be phrased better.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

This game is actually based on a real serial killer back in the day, a chilling fact that adds a layer of authenticity and dread to the entire experience. The developers have meticulously crafted the game to reflect the grim atmosphere of the time, allowing players to immerse themselves in a world where danger lurks around every corner. There were many jump scare moments that caught us off guard, along with a pervasive eeriness felt throughout the game, creating a sense of unease that lingered long after we put down the controller.


From the very first moment we stepped our foot onto the creaking front porch of the cabin, we knew we were in trouble; the air was thick with tension, and the shadows seemed to whisper secrets of the past. Once we entered the cabin, the door slammed shut behind us with a deafening thud, sealing our fate. There was no way out except to solve the killer's twisted puzzles, each more sinister than the last, in order to escape alive. The puzzles were intricately designed, requiring keen observation and critical thinking, which added to the adrenaline rush as the clock ticked down. If you love CSI, horror movies, and just thrilling adventures in general, you'll need to visit "The Lodge of the Lost" right now!
