About the escape room
Berlin-Mitte: During repair work on the drainage system of Humboldt University, construction workers made a spectacular discovery - they uncovered an entrance to a hitherto unknown object. A spontaneous exploration on their own initiative failed: There is still no trace of the construction workers. The authorities have blocked the entrance and are now looking for a team of expert archaeologists who dare to make another attempt to uncover the secret of the place.

Overview of artificial intelligence
AIMost praise the incredible set, the sound design, and the dense atmosphere; words like "cinematic" and "wow moments" come up a lot. The flow is mostly linear, with strong exploration segments in sometimes very tight, dark sections. Puzzles are considered fair and fitting to the story, for pros sometimes more medium-challenging; coordination and communication matter a lot. Small teams work particularly well, the staff is consistently described as warm and motivated.
WeaknessesThe passage through tight, dark areas isn't for everyone and can feel cramped with many people. Isolated reports mention loud music or technical hiccups; some would like more creative or harder puzzles. From time to time, there are said to have been interruptions.
StrengthsOutstanding set design, clever use of space, and fitting effects create full immersion. The opening is exceptional and the tension stays high. Friendly game masters, good briefings, and mostly very subtle hints round off the experience.
SecurityClear safety notes are given in advance, especially about tight and dark sections; the website communicates this transparently as well. Basic fitness helps, the team pays attention to safe execution.
Level of fearNo horror, but darkness, tight spaces, and crawling can feel intense and deter the claustrophobic. Fine for older kids/teens with supervision, if they handle confined areas.
Actors' gameReception and briefing are often hosted with great atmosphere, partly with small acting bits. Hints are thoughtfully delivered and keep immersion high.
Quality of riddlesLogical, fair, and aligned with the story, with a good mix of team coordination and tinkering. More linear than non-linear, rarely frustrating; experienced players sometimes wish for more bite. Hardly any search-fests, the focus is on mechanics and flow.
PlotYou are a special team operating beneath Humboldt University after construction workers uncovered a secret access and disappeared. Goal: unravel the mystery and retrieve the lost treasure - without spoilers: it gets very adventurous.
Difficulty levelMedium, with clean flow. For beginners quite doable with hints, for pros more a joy because of immersion and set than maximal puzzle hardness; small teams of two to four run the smoothest.
