Review by RYAN H CARTER
It could at times get a little tedious, but I think this book is a brilliant blend of media. It does not feel like it should work, yet it does. Never before in my life have I been reading a book and wondered how to progress.

When you get inside the door locks behind you, and you can't get out. Now the adventure begins! You have to explore this building and try to find your way home. The building is huge on the inside with a lot of sprawling hallways and empty rooms but your only hope is to uncover clues and try to work out the mystery this whole experience hangs on.
