The Wonderful Wizard of Oz13th Hour Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThe experience is cinematic and speaks to their background in haunted houses. There is a lot of love and attention to details in the room and references. Certainly not the most difficult, but the atmosphere and effects is its highlight and makes it a must play in my opinion.
PlaygroundThe Escape GameEscape roomIRLProbably my favorite game from them, the story and theme were amazing! It was a ton of fun and there were a variety of puzzles that challenges different ways of thinking and strengths. A lot of elements I would have never expected that added to the experience, it felt like I was back in elementary school.
The DepthsThe Escape GameEscape roomIRLI love the set, especially within the first room. The puzzles were all really on theme and made logical sense within the context of the story. As for the ending, it was very memorable and I think we were so hyped up to realize we had escaped for a few moments. The videos for the most part didn’t feel like they added to our experience, they just ate up time. Overall, one of my favorite games from them.
The HeistThe Escape GameEscape roomIRLA very well-done heist room, with puzzles that felt very in theme and that added to the stakes. The ending was a ton of fun as well. It was among the smaller of their offerings from I have seen.
Down at the BoardwalkEast Coast Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThe puzzles and the set decor in the room really made it feel like you were down at the boardwalk. It’s a good mix of different types of puzzles that rely on different strengths. There are a lot of puzzles that you can have kids do that will be super fun and engaging while the adults work on the harder ones. The staff were incredibly welcoming as well. Overall, a great experience!
The CyphstressDeadlocked OnlineEscape roomVirtual The production quality is really good! I managed to finish it in a little over 2 hours as a single player. They did a great job with the clue mechanism for an online experience, many of the clues or feedback were exactly what I needed. There was one part that having at least 2 screens would have been helpful but it’s doable with one person/screen. I do wish parts of these were print and play however because I wasted so much time trying to draw things like grids that felt like a bit of a time waste. They utilized a lot of different mediums and pages which was fun, but there was just a lot of jumping and open tabs because you never knew what you would have to go back to. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.
The Lost TempleCU Adventures In Time And Space - OnlineEscape roomVirtual Fun, but their other online game Floor 13 was a lot stronger story wise and puzzle wise. There were some great puzzles, especially the final puzzle. A lot of set out though.
Spirit Seekers Ireland: Clare AbbeyOnline Escape Rooms Ireland - OnlineEscape roomVirtual The set was great, a cool mix of real world footage and cool scenery. The puzzles themselves were tricky, made harder by the number of areas to explore. I recommend making note of EVERYTHING you find in each area so you don’t waste too much time backtracking. A lot of finding in the game, some which I loved, some of which was frustrating because it felt like I found some things purely by chance. I highly recommend doing this with a group because there is so much to explore and find.
The Sorcerer’s ChamberEast Coast Escape RoomEscape roomIRLFrom the atmosphere to a ton of the very cool effects, we had a blast and it was a great room even for people who may be new to escape rooms!
The Beach BarOnline Escape Rooms Ireland - OnlineEscape roomVirtual Probably my favorite that I have played from them. The set is so much fun and every puzzle made sense or fit the theme perfectly! I managed to finish it with one player and I think if you had small group playing online together it would be good as well. The ending was definitely my favorite part, the last puzzle is a great note to end on.
