The graphics are generally praised for their amazing quality and thoughtful design elements, such as the view of Earth from a window and the glowing eyes of a statue. However, some users feel that the visuals lack cohesion, presenting a confusing mix of sci-fi and ancient themes that appear 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.”
“Graphics are amazing.”
“The puzzles are not connected in any way that made sense to me, and in the visuals, there is a weird mix of sci-fi fuse finding 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, with no overarching narrative; players primarily focus on solving puzzles to escape, aided by scattered notes that provide clues.
“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.”
