The mystery of the ring

We played as a family: two adults and our 10-year-old son. We had little experience, so we got stuck here and there, but the game master gently guided us without giving direct answers, and our interest never faded. There are lots of props; the rooms are beautiful and immersive. We finished in 1:10, and everyone was very happy and wanted to come back.

The quest itself is pleasant and atmospheric—a solid four—but the organization let us down. All the lockers were taken, the start was delayed, we waited for the intro story and they simply forgot about us. The hint operator responded quickly but once mixed up the quests; the music was way too loud, and screams from neighboring rooms could be heard through it.

We came as a group ranging in age from 10 to 45. In the first room it’s not obvious that you need to open the well first, and the “smoke” on the character card is hard to see — we had to guess; it’s a bit too high for kids. After that the logic is better, but in the room with the crystals it was too dark — you can barely make out the map on the wall; a flashlight would’ve helped. Otherwise everyth... Expand

Deep immersion into Middle-earth: the decor, music, and transitions between rooms were a delight. The host assisted gently without spoilers, and the finale tied all the threads together. An excellent family-friendly option; we'll go again with friends.

There were three of us, with two nine-year-old kids. Overall we liked it, but by the middle the kids' enthusiasm faded. The puzzles were okay, though some things seemed illogical; we asked for hints, and the lighting was insufficient in places. In the final room the tech failed and the exit door had been opened in advance — the ending felt botched.

We went as a family with an 8-year-old. The puzzles were interesting, but the ending came unexpectedly—we thought there would be another stage. Overall, we enjoyed the game; it's just right for beginners, with the difficulty closer to easy.

We came for a birthday. We liked the atmosphere, music, and room design; at some points you can get different endings and approach things in different ways — which is cool. But some of the puzzles aren’t always clear; we needed a lot of hints, though we finished right on time.

Negative impression: not much logic, the operator responds in a rude manner and immediately gives direct answers instead of hints. A couldn’t-care-less attitude. I’ve completed over 60 quests — I won’t go to this chain again.

The first room is a real wow—bright and immersive. After that, there are lots of tasks in the dark where you have to feel your way around. The puzzle that involved arranging items was glitchy, and the storyline with the “stones” didn’t feel very logical—those parts were confusing.

We’ve visited this company before, but for the first time we tried a family room without an actor. We were delighted by the interior details—you can see the care for the little things. The puzzles are well balanced—neither too easy nor overwhelming—and the staff is friendly. Thanks for the emotions!

Went with my 7-year-old daughter — not scary, though a couple of moments in the dark were tense. The lighting was lacking in places, but the atmosphere and props were top-notch. Overall, we were satisfied.

The puzzles are hit-or-miss in places, especially in the dark room with the artifacts, but visually it's a treat. Kids aged 9 and 11 loved it, and there was plenty to keep the adults engaged too.

The quest is not bad, but toward the end the equipment froze, and the music was blasting so loudly we couldn’t hear each other. The hints are either too straightforward or you have to wait too long for them. The theme and set design make up for it.

We celebrated a birthday — lots of locations, thoughtful details, a sense of adventure. I liked that there are multiple endings. Recommended for first-timers and families.

The kids played it at a 12th birthday. The younger ones, around 10, enjoyed it more, while the 12-year-olds were bored at times. From the sidelines we heard lots of excitement and discussion, so overall the party was a success.
