This room was absolutely delightful. Your team is competing in a Cupcake Bake-Off, but you've been locked in a test kitchen by your competition. You must escape AND decorate cupcakes before time elapses. Comes with a cupcake for each player to enjoy!

This was a pretty standard "stop the explosion" scenario. There were however well over 10 mechanical locks to open in dim light...not an ideal pairing. Overall, the puzzle solving was fun, but the momentum slowed or came to a screeching halt as you took the 4-digit code you just discovered and tried to figure out which of the multitude of locks it matched to. Many of the locks used symbols to associate the puzzle to which lock it matched to...but not all.

Your mission is to lay the ghost of a Pharoah to rest in the Egyptian exhibit of a museum. Overall, nothing really stood out here...and what could have been a fun climax was just...meh. This is a good example of Morty needing a score somewhere between Dislike and Like.

This was a delightful, narratively driven room. Everything just elegantly flowed, from one puzzle to another. Slightly spooky, without even coming near "creepy." I don't think I've done a room where I've had such a sense of calm wash over me as I played.

This was simply a delightful room, with the joy and visual sparkle of Willy Wonka around every corner...with some nice surprises waiting to be sprung on you.

Upon walking into the room, I was surprised to see a lot of familiar elements. I had done the Blind Tiger room at Escaparium Laval in Montreal a couple months back, and this was clearly the same room (it turns out that both facilities bought the room from the same company). However, there was JUST enough in the room that was different that I was pretty sure this wasn't going to be a walk in the park (especially since I'd done the Montreal room with four others, and there were several puzzles solved I was not a part of). Later, I checked with a contact at Escaparium in Montreal, and they confirmed they changed it quite a bit upon purchase (including using a live actor). (I know that a Blind Tiger is a generic room for a speakeasy, so I didn't think for a second when signing up that there would be similarities!)

Heard great things about it…but “merely liked it.” Once we cleared the first area, it started to flow much better. Definitely a unique…and quite physically demanding…experience.

This was easily my favorite of the four rooms I did this visit to Panic Room. Big Wizard of Oz fan, here. Read all the books growing up. So there were little touches here and there that I appreciated. Great for a solo player…but I could see a small group of experienced players dominating.

I really enjoyed this, and I can count on one had how many >60 minute games I’ve done. The set design was great and I really enjoyed the overall experience. Very few mechanical locks, which was great as I was having trouble at this location with physical locks in relatively dim light. Only complaints were poor hints on the puzzle on the first door…and that I was deathly ill and needed to step out partway through.

Kind of found it funny I was doing this, of all rooms, for my 200th room. I have to say, they fully embraced the theme. The puzzles were clever, but as mentioned in my blow-by-blow (ha!) breakdown, it’s a pain in the butt to read numbers off of shiny metal tumblers in a dim room via flashlight. While it wasn’t amazing, it was still enjoyable.
