About
Lying on the job application may not have been the best idea, and now something has gone terribly wrong on the players' first day in the laboratory. Rather than stand-alone puzzles, the game is built like a classic point-and-click adventure such as The Secret of Monkey Island, with challenges woven into the story that match what the characters would actually do. Stuck teams can ask other characters for help, keeping hints inside the fiction, and the tone is playful rather than scary, so laughter is often heard from outside the room. It runs about as long as a film and can be played in English or Dutch.
The games
1 game to choose from
The Time-traveler Experience is a two-hour, story-first adventure in Leiden's Overrijn creative factory. Your first day as a lab assistant has gone horribly wrong, perhaps because you lied on your application, and you must use creativity and a little time travel to put everything right. The venue likens it to a live-action adventure game in the style of The Secret of Monkey Island, built around story challenges rather than stand-alone puzzles.
The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
Light-hearted and funny rather than scary or tense: players are often heard laughing from outside the room. Hints come from other characters inside the story, so the experience stays immersive, and there is no timed high score, since the goal is to see the whole story rather than race out.
Who it suits
Teams of four to seven who enjoy narrative adventures and humour, including mixed skill sets, because the challenges involve logic, graphics, wordplay and even a musical ear. Company groups can request a Team Performance Report. Players should be 13 or older, with 10 to 12 year olds accompanied by two older players.
