A team of archaeologists have uncovered an ancient relic and they have begun their work into translating its ancient secrets. Progress was going great at first, but it’s been weeks since we’ve heard from them… and we fear the worst. That’s why you and your team has been hired. You need to finish what they started, decipher the mysterious glyphs and uncover the relic’s true purpose.

Hosting
Not much to add from the previous post, except we really appreciated how the hosts took time to explain the different games to us and make solid recommendations based on how they’d seen us perform in the first room. We also topped the monthly leaderboard again and I think even placed highly on the all-time leaderboard for a team of two!
Theming
In this room we were archaeologists investigating a site for an ancient relic. Everything in the room had that dusty brown colour so we really felt immersed in our objective. Perhaps not quite as stellar as their previous room, but still very solid. It was only a single room with a small footprint but still lots to keep us busy. We particularly liked the addition of a recurring ‘curse’ that popped up every 10 minutes or so that we had to stave off.
Puzzling
The puzzles were mostly great fun, including a ‘feeling in the dark’ puzzle that always goes down well! There was a sound-based puzzle, that wasn’t quite as perfect as we might’ve liked, and others mentioned that the final riddle was too hard. We didn’t mind struggling through it for a while and got that sense of satisfaction from getting it in the end without needing a hint!
