What others are saying

The Missing Will is a supernatural Victorian-manor investigation with optional side puzzles and story choices. Reviewers on Morty and Room Escape Artist give it a mixed reception and often call it weaker than the venue’s other rooms.

Room Escape Artist found the set spectacular, atmospheric and detailed, praised the effects in the opening scene and enjoyed puzzles that used the set pieces. Morty reviewers liked the tech and theming, and some appreciated the range of difficulty and the optional puzzles for larger groups.

The complaints are consistent. Morty reviewers found the puzzles repetitive, the story and the effect of their choices confusing, and the optional puzzles hard to finish without a full team. Room Escape Artist criticised dim lighting, a lack of puzzle variety, puzzles that didn’t clearly show when they were solved, a laggy touch screen and a hokey final sequence without a real ending.
