Les Enfants Terrible are an innovative and exciting production company and having experienced the brilliant immersive theatre experiences of Alice’s Adventures Underground at Waterloo vaults and The Games Afoot at Madame Tussauds in previous years we knew when we booked for a six-person private online adventure that they would deliver and so they did. The private booking meant we knew the other households involved which added to the enjoyment although at no stage were we allowed to be competitive against each other with the emphasis being on solving the mystery and preventing the murder of the Prime Minister as a team.
Once logged in we met Dr Watson in the lobby who explained the task and each element of the adventure and provided the links to get into the various rooms. He was a jovial chap with a weak knowledge of UK geography but a good guide to the adventure. Most of the effort is down to the participants but there is barely time to investigate all the clues let alone debate them or reflect on your findings. There is plenty of content to distract you from the task and ancillary investigations that may or may not help.
