    Wow! What a one of a kind room! There was obviously a TON of thought, care, wit and humor put into this room and I'm still buzzing from having completed it. The puzzles were challenging in the best way; not impossibly hard but if you've done escape rooms before you can understand the logic of the puzzles in the room. Our GM was astounding. She was super attentive and helped nudge us when we were off the path without being too imposing or obvious at all. She was a stellar GM who is obviously enthusiastic about escape rooms. The setting is SO immersive. If you can afford it, take a minute to take in the art on the walls. Very punny and clever. I hiiiighly encourage those of you who are looking for unique escape rooms with a thoughtful yet fun/funny concept to give this escape room a try. You won't regret it.

    This escape room was awesome and really is an ode to escape rooms. The theme is dark, in that there's horror movie elements, but as a bonafide chicken the room itself isn't scary. I braced myself to be scared and felt comfortable. All of the puzzles were unique from one another and we're very clever. I think if you've done escape rooms you'll find the room engaging but not too hard. We went with a group of people who had done maybe one escape room and it was fun to watch them figure it out. It's high tech and immersive, and I greatly enjoyed chatting with Jeremiah who is the owner. I love it when we get the behind the scenes details of escape rooms from owners, especially when they're enthusiastic players of rooms and have insights on the escape room world. All in all we had a blast and would highly recommend this room to anyone, experienced or novice, to the 13th Basement.

    Nina was amazing and the gameplay was so fun! Very straightforward and clever.

    So I've done about 30+ rooms at this point, and this was the first room where we failed. I wouldn't be frustrated with failing a room if it was due to extra challenging puzzles, but we got stuck on a puzzle that was not remotely intuitive (if anything, it goes against what you may presume from having done prior escape rooms), and admitedly our GM even said he got stuck on the same puzzle, yet when we asked for hints for the specific puzzle in question (3 hints!!! For one puzzle!) we weren't given adequate information to help us figure it out. We're a smart bunch. We've done some more intense, logical games and have come out with time to spare, but with a game like this where the puzzles are a little all over the place, the hints aren't that useful, and they have a challenging puzzle that doesn't make sense, it's hard to give this room much credit. Additionally, there was another puzzle after that which is a little messy and makes solving it more confusing. I'm speaking in vagueries so as to not give anything away, but all in all, I was unimpressed and actually quite disappointed with this game.

    The rooms were beautifully designed and the puzzles themselves were great and straightforward in a good way, but I think this story had a little bit too much plot to the point that it became a little convoluted for an escape room. I love a well crafted story but reading letters just for backstory can steal time in an escape room.

    Very easy escape room. Great for beginners. The theme was fun and the puzzles were linear.
