About the escape room
Ninth November, East Berlin. Despite the demonstrations for freedom of movement in the GDR, the Berlin Wall seems unshakeable. The overwhelmed guards are waiting for the order... to shoot or to give in? The West German Federal Intelligence Service assigns you a top secret mission. You are to relay false orders to the East German border troops, instructing them to open the border crossings. West German passports are being promised as a reward. But be careful: You only have 60 minutes before the East German communication channels are blocked! During your mission, you will smuggle secret documents from East to West Berlin and use technical communication equipment. Break through the wall and pave the way for a fresh start in the West!

Overview of artificial intelligence
AIMost guests are excited by the setting, creativity, and puzzle flow. The difficulty is described as medium and not trivial, but very doable. There is occasional criticism of the logic of some puzzles and of props that are just decor and cost time. The atmosphere hits many; some feel less of the historical spark.
WeaknessesSome items aren't relevant and distract. A few tasks don't feel entirely logical to some players, and the room feels a bit dated to some.
StrengthsPuzzles are varied and exciting, and the set feels lovingly crafted and thematically coherent. The historical angle makes the experience special and educational without being dry.
SecurityReviews contain no indications of safety issues. Further details on briefing or emergency exits: no data.
Level of fearNo horror, more tension from theme and time pressure. Suitable for teenagers, as long as the GDR theme doesn't put them off.
Actors' gameNo data in the reviews about acting or live interaction. The focus seems clearly on tech, story, and puzzles.
Quality of riddlesRanging from easy to demanding, mostly fair and solvable. Occasional logic gaps are mentioned, plus a few red herrings due to decor. Overall a coherent mix of searching, combining, and tech.
PlotYou infiltrate East German communications, slip documents through, and open the crossings before the lines are cut. Political-thriller feel without spoilers, a clear mission with measurable progress.
Difficulty levelMedium. Teams with some escape experience get into it well; beginners manage with hints and good teamwork.
