Can you discover his great secret?
First of all, let me say that I can’t really see what people like so much about this room. #37 on TERPECA 2019. I was hyped by the reviews and even more because they claim to be enthusiasts who build a room. I discussed it with other people who played it and it seems the GM can make it or break it. Ours was someone who admitted to being quite new. It was fine, but it felt staged and perhaps it will get better after a few more games. I started handcuffed and he made them so tight I was about to ask for an emergency stop – it hurt.
You start in a beautiful jewelry exposition full of some riddles that are on the easier side, which is great! Other rooms should learn from this. Easy riddles at the beginning to get everyone kickstarted and motivated. The middle part unfortunately I can’t discuss without giving away too much. But overall highlight how important good communication and cooperation will be in this room. An ending that is full of energy, with a bit of a rush feeling that makes you leave on a high yelling “yeah we did it!”
As a fun note, there’s a highlight of the game, the apex of what makes the game special, and the GM told us about a couple of fun very contrasting stories: First, a girl was so nervous she peed herself; and the other story is that a girl was into some sort of kink and enjoyed one of the parts… way too much.
On top of adding their custom border on the photo, they will write a customized text full of emojis and post it on their facebook page. See ours for example. The downside, they must have a long queue because it took them more than a month to post ours.
