Houston we have a problem, with 60 minutes on the clock we started Lunar Mission by splitting the team into two equal parts each group equipped with a walkie-talkie (we were instructed that communication is vital in the first ten minutes of the game) and a backpack of tools we would later need, half of the team working in the ships main room and the other half abroad the lunar station.
We used effective communication to reunite the entire team and continued the mission of repairing the station in order to survive and land safely back on earth. You become part of the experience; It’s like an action film set in outer space. The escape room itself is high tech and designed with detail creating the “real life experience”. The puzzles in each room are intertwined with the overall theme and instead of feeling like an actual “puzzle” they feel more like “actions” you need to take in order to complete the task and save your team.
The blend of mental and physical task all require teamwork and communication to accomplish each puzzle and continue to move throughout the mission. Once the mission is completed you are really in for treat when heading back to earth. I highly recommend this escape room to anyone wanting to play a real life astronaut for an hour.
The mission was presented by Sony’s new film “Life,” which is a terrifying sci-fi thriller about a team of scientists aboard the International Space Station whose mission of discovery turns to one of primal fear when they find a rapidly evolving life form that caused extinction on Mars, and now threatens the crew and all life on Earth.
