Deckscape: The Fate of London review
Deckscape: The Fate of London is a cooperative card game that throws you into a thrilling escape room experience right at your table. As a huge fan of escape rooms, I was immediately drawn to the concept, and I have to say, this game delivered on its promise.
The game sets you up as agents tasked with saving London from a looming threat. Your goal is to locate four devices hidden in secret locations and defuse them before midnight. The pressure is on, and the tension is palpable.
The puzzles in this game are truly challenging, and I found myself constantly engaged, trying to crack the codes and decipher the clues. I appreciated that most of the puzzles required some creative thinking and outside-the-box problem-solving. However, I did find a couple of puzzles to be a bit obscure, leaving us stumped for a while.
The suggested time allotment in the game description is a bit unrealistic. You'll likely need a good chunk of time – maybe even an entire evening – to complete it. But even with the challenges, I couldn't help but feel incredibly immersed in the story and the world of the game.
Overall, Deckscape: The Fate of London is a captivating experience. It's a great choice for those who enjoy a good challenge and are looking for a unique and engaging game night. While the puzzles may be a bit on the harder side, the satisfaction of solving them is truly rewarding.
