Tips and Getting There
Insider Tips
- Book your room online in advance. Walk in slots are limited, especially on rainy days when every group in town has the same idea.
- Smaller groups often get a better experience in the harder rooms. Ask the staff which room fits your group size and skill level.
- Assign one person to call out everything they find. Most teams run out of time because clues get discovered and then forgotten.
