The Farm
“The Idea of spending a week on a real working farm seemed like a dream come true. Life in the big city can be so stressful and demanding, it’s going to be good to get away and get back to nature. The first few days were great, the work was hard and we loved it, but something about this place is a little off. Some of the people that we arrived with appear to have left the property, but we didn’t see any vehicles pick them up. There is also a strange, weirdly modern building at the edge of the cornfields that we are not allowed to visit. I know that my mind must be playing tricks on me, but I could swear that one of the ranch hands had large drops of blood on his boots? Enough! I must just be fatigued from the heat and the work. This is just a normal farm in a beautiful country. Right? RIGHT????”
We have not yet completed a review of The Farm at Captive in Toronto. We hope to experience this room soon.
What others are saying
The Farm appears to be closed. It ran at Captive’s downtown Toronto location, and the room is now listed as closed. While it was open, reactions were lukewarm, and even some Captive fans called it one of the company’s weaker games.
On the plus side, players said the room looked decent and matched its storyline, and some enjoyed the variety of puzzles.
The complaints were more consistent. Players described a small, older-style room built entirely around combination locks with no electronics, which some felt was pricey for what you get. Reviewers mentioned red herrings, a room in need of repair and broken locks that caused groups to skip sections, plus an unclear ending that left one team searching for a next step that didn’t exist. A player on Reddit found the space small and not very immersive.
