Mafia HeistEscapeX Rooms IrvineEscape roomIRLWe had a blast! Played with 6 people. Myself and two others were the main puzzle solvers, and the other three assisted us. We all easily fell into a role that fitted each of us. We got out with 44 seconds left! (They tell you this ahead of time) This is the type of room that you can choose to 100%, or get out as soon as you solve the room.
Zombie RisingLegacy Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLMy main issue with this room is how uncomfortable it is. The AC was either off or set too high so it was hot. The lighting in the room was difficult, and hurt after a while. There is also a smoke machine in the room, and I’m a bit sensitive to that stuff, and it just made me feel physically bad. I think one or even two of those on their own would have been bearable, but all three together did not feel great. The Puzzles I think were fine.
The SubmarineEscape the Room Boise IdahoEscape roomIRLI took my parents/family here for their first escape room experience. So, my main goal was to make sure that they had a good first time, and they all definitely had a lot of fun! However, to more avid players, this room can be frustrating. One puzzle when executed correctly, did not trigger, we ended up having to ask for a clue, and just restating what we did. He then confirmed we did it correctly, and to just fidget with it till it worked. Another puzzle was frustrating in the sense that it was essentially a very bad video game. A few puzzles were unclear as to what the next step was. The GM was essentially working as our guide. We definitely had fun, but I could also see it being very frustrating and too difficult. The GM says Submarine is their hardest room, and the Bank Heist is on the easier side, although the Morty app lists it was the opposite.
