Day9TV checks in to The Spectrum Retreat



The Penrose Hotel has been known to send even the most battle hardened minds into meltdown. The mixture of colour orientated puzzles, unsettling hotel guests and our daily schedule really took their toll on Day9TV when he checked in to The Spectrum Retreat.

Check out this YouTube video from Amelia Tyler (the voice of Cooper) made documenting some of the highlights of Day9TV’s experiences. And get ready to take part in the ultimate debate: are the cubes red, or orange.

Upon check-in to The Penrose hotel it becomes clear than not all is as it seems. Your exploration of the hotel begins to uncover the reality of your current situation, but your desire to uncover the truth is obstructed by a series of puzzles, physics challenges and narrative riddles.

Today we’re sharing a first look at the unsettling environment that sits at the core of The Spectrum Retreat and also a taster of the challenging puzzles you will face during your stay. You can check out the announcement trailer and a selection of screenshots on the Store page, and we look forward to sharing more details with you in the coming months.
