Escape Castle Black in Berlin. A Game of Thrones themed live escape room with techy puzzles, English play, about 2 hours, from $16.93.

“Unfortunately, there was no introduction to the scenario at the beginning. In addition, the room had not been completely reset, so that when playing, some puzzles from the previous ones had already been solved. The puzzles themselves are also very simple and countable on one hand. In some cases, not all puzzles worked due to technical problems.
