With the caveat that my experience was solely my own: I am a heavy person and played this game today. It’s definitely physical—like David said, lots of stairs, and some steep ones at that—but not prohibitively so, though if you have bad knees just be prepared for some wear and tear. There is enough to do in the room that whenever there was a puzzle involving size-specific props like clothing, or investigating a small space, I could either participate in the puzzle in a different but still relevant way, or I could work on something else entirely. There was one moment when there was a seat belt I could not make reach the buckle, but I draped it over my lap as far as it would go and it ended up not being a problem. If you have any specific questions about engaging with the room as a big person, you’re welcome to pick my brain.

For the record: I loved, loved, loved the room.

I can’t speak to what your specific experience will be but I’ll call out that there is:

– a little bit of crawling (that is pretty well padded) in a moderately tight space
– some stairs
– and the game is long

I drove my family of four last Feb in the middle of the worst snowstorm in Montreal in 60 years. We were driving around 5-10 miles per hour on the highway, to get to the location in the suburbs. It was white-knuckle driving ever mile, with extremely low visibility. And it was totally worth it.

After 50 or so escape rooms, and a handful of immersive theater events, this was by far one of the most remarkable puzzle-based theatrics I’ve ever experienced. I’m still gobsmacked that they pulled this off.

My two jaded teens were engaged from beginning to end, and we four were collaborating throughout.

It was a simply remarkable experienced that we’ve struggled to explain to friends and family time and again due to spoilers. I’ve been looking forward to this review for just that reason and, as always, it did not disappoint.
