Review of "The Storm" at Gaslight Theatre

On January 20, 2017, a brutal murder took place in Room 101 of Goodview Condo. A famous journalist, Ann, was found dead in her own home.

What others are saying

A story-driven, fully mechanical murder mystery (first run in Chinese, now also offered in English) that reviewers rate highly for its narrative.

Reviewers on Morty praise how the clues are organized so you can revisit them, a clear grasp of the story at every stage, lock-free mechanical puzzles and well-synchronized sound effects. Escapewhere calls it a benchmark for narrative design in the area, with smooth, emotionally engaging pacing and a resonant finale.

Escapewhere notes that some players may guess the twists early. Both sources suggest about four players is the sweet spot.
