The graphics received mixed reviews, with some praising the amazing visuals and thoughtful design elements, such as the view of Earth and glowing statue eyes. However, others criticized the inconsistent aesthetic, noting a disjointed blend of sci-fi and ancient themes that felt hastily assembled.
“Graphics are amazing.”
“Nice little touches with the graphics design, like looking out the window to see Earth, or the glowy eyes of the statue.”
“The puzzles are not connected in any way that made sense to me, and the visuals feature a weird mix of sci-fi and old stone/metal puzzles, which gives the impression of being hastily assembled with no real theme behind it.”

The story aspect of the escape room is minimal, primarily revolving around solving puzzles to escape, with only scattered notes providing some clues. Overall, it lacks a cohesive narrative.
“As usual for an escape room, there is no real story, and you have to solve puzzles to get out; there are some notes scattered around which contain some clues.”
