Off the Couch - Santa Clara, California

Inheritance: Tesla's inheritance awaited us if only we could solve his final puzzles. 

Conspiracy Theory: A room of mysteries reveals the biggest conspiracies in history. We had to solve the biggest one.

Pros: The waiting room at Off the Couch was super cool. There was so much space and lots of games to play while you wait. The gamemasters were enthusiastic and clearly enjoyed their work. They did a great job telling the rules and introductory story lines. We were excited to get started playing the games. First we played Conspiracy Theory. We struggled through most of the puzzles and required lots of hints and intervention from the game master. Some mechanical difficulties coupled with less than logical puzzles impeded our game flow. We successfully escaped only with constant hints from the game master. Luckily our experience in Inheritance was quite the opposite. We loved the set and the puzzles. We moved through the game relatively effortlessly requiring only one major hint. The game flow was excellent ant the puzzles were all aligned to the game. 

Cons: See comments above. The complexity of Conspiracy Theory could be improved with a few guideposts to lead players to the puzzle solutions. The first room also contained a lot of distracting stimuli that slowed our game play.

We definitely recommend you play Inheritance if you visit Off the Couch!
