Overview of artificial intelligence

AIGuests praise the modern setup with sensors and NFC instead of classic locks, plus fitting sound and lighting. The atmosphere is very dark and comparatively creepy, including a few jump scares. The difficulty is high; many teams take hints. Staff are described as friendly, with a very good briefing.
WeaknessesFor some it’s quite hard and at times very scary, which can drag without hints. Fans of classic number locks may miss them. There’s little concrete criticism of execution or tech.
StrengthsHighly immersive atmosphere with great audio and lighting. Modern, creative mechanics without code clutter keep puzzling fresh and clever. Hosting feels warm and attentive.
SecurityThe briefing clearly covers safety and rules; everything feels well supervised. No reports of incidents; scare effects are intense but controlled.
Level of fearNoticeably scarier than many other rooms, with occasional jump scares. Probably not for skittish kids; horror fans will be happy.
Actors' gameNo live acting mentioned. Game masters seem friendly, the briefing is clear, hints arrive appropriately.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles are varied, logical, and mostly tech-based with sensors and NFC, hardly any math. Fair yet demanding; you’ll occasionally need a nudge. Few classic locks, more object combinations and mechanisms.
PlotYou investigate the cursed Room 13 at the hotel "Altes Wien" and follow the trail of a dark secret. The story supports the puzzles without overshadowing them; low spoiler risk.
Difficulty levelOn the harder side, ideal for experienced teams. Beginners can make it with hints and good communication.

We spontaneously chose Hotel Room 13, and in hindsight I’m really glad we did. The room feels noticeably more modern than many others, largely doing away with combination locks in favor of NFC and smart sensors. Sound and lighting are superbly coordinated and create a dense, quite creepy atmosphere. Of the five rooms I’ve played so far, this was the best, and I’ll definitely be coming back for the

No math puzzles, but a few well-executed jump scares and a strong atmosphere. We needed hints in a few spots, but overall we had a great time and were on edge the whole way through.

Big love for the NFC ideas and the well-timed effects. Hardly any combination locks; instead, clever object combinations — right up my alley.

Expertly staged but genuinely demanding. We needed a few hints, and the jump scares got me good twice. Bottom line: a top-notch experience, just not for the faint-hearted.
