Bewilder Box: Judgement D.A.V.E.
Location: Brighton
Game Date: 23/08/2018
Team: Amy & Ian
Theme:
Theming was super slick, and futuristic. Building on the theme of The Bewilder Box iniative, this was it’s cooler older brother! The space was deceptively large, with multiple sections leading to a good sense of exploration throughout the space. The lighting was good, and in areas of lower light levels, torches were provided.
Build quality was excellent, and the heavy narrative served to create a fully realised and immersive world.
Game Play:
A game that was quite open in each of its sections, with a very good range of puzzles. Logic, codebreaking, translating, word, sound, visual, physical & teamwork.
The puzzles were all logical and clever with creativity in their design and excecution. The exploration and discovery in the game led to a fantastic flow, that never stopped or slowed us down. The signposting was clear and logical.
The game had a strong narrative which was threaded through the puzzles and room itself, leading to an exciting and tense finale.
A slick, honed game that has the distinct Bewilder Box feel, but was even slick and more comprehensive than its earlier sibling
A great game to task enthusiasts (take a small group) and is logical and clear enough to teach newbies how an escape game should be played!
Clue System:
The infamous D.A.V.E. was our hint system and he was chatty, witty and hilarious… a highlight was having him sing Happy Birthday to me!! We love D.A.V.E.
Game Host:
Dave was our game host and was fantastic, delivering a perfect in character introduction to the game and giving perfect hints and nudges at the right time
Did we escape?
