Slaughter House - Bloody, Gory "Mess"
After the spooky yet thrilling experience in The Secret Lab, we decided to try the Slaughter House. Come on... The name itself describes the mess that we are about to see in this room. This room was rated to be a 5 star room which means it is the most difficult room there is. I was a bit skeptical but the Professor but wasn't deterred. She told me that we have to try it and she had the confidence that we can do it.
The staff told is that we were abducted by Dr. Malcolm and we had 45 minutes to breakout or he will kill us... I don't know why Dr. Malcolm is the villain in most of the rooms in this franchise. I don't know what they have against the name Malcolm... The only famous Dr. Malcolm that the world know is Dr. Malcolm X... The man who fought for the rights of African Americans in America. I doubt the Escape Room team has any beef with him. Anyways.. back to the game.
The first room was really creepy. Blood was splattered all over the room and there was this really creepy music playing in the background. For one of the puzzle we had to guide a laser to a hidden sensor. It was really hard but interesting. Upon solving the puzzles in the first room we had to open a room which looked like huge freezer. Despite knowing that it was just a game, I have to admit that it was scary to open the freezer. The professor stood a few meters away when I swung the doors open.
The scene in the room was very eerie and it really fit the theme of a slaughter house. I don't mean to give any spoilers away but I have to say that get ready for numerous bodies hanging from the ceiling. Not for the faint of heart, people!!!
At one point, we had to listen to a recording of the killer. We had a tough time hearing what he was saying but when we finally got it, solving the puzzle was rather easy. Solving the final puzzle was one of the most fun that we have ever had. We had to rely on our Maths skill as we had to solve a simultaneous equation. It felt as if we were having a calculus test surrounded by dead bodies. Anyways, we broke out with 22 minutes to spare.
The staffs were surprised that we broke out with that time as this was a 5 star room and there were only the 2 of us. For some reason we wished that the room was a bit more extensive as we were expecting more. Check out the Scorecard.

Overall
The Fear factor in this room is what carried the room. The puzzles were okay and I liked the link in some of the puzzles. The room scores very high on the theme as it really felt as if we were really in a demented slaughter house. Off the Slaughter House and on the next one!
