The Man From BeyondStrange Bird ImmersiveEscape roomIRLAn amazing and immersive experience. Absolutely sold me on the concept of actors in escape rooms. I can see why this is so consistently highly reviewed - well worth the wait and the price!
Prison BreakThe Escape Game Houston - CityCentreEscape roomIRLA great time. This is my partner-in-crime's favorite room, out of the 20+ that we have done together. Ticks all the boxes for things-you-would-think-are-in-a-prison-break.
Blackwell ManorNew Mexico Escape Room - McLeod LocationEscape roomIRLA fantastic game who's theming kept us engaged from start to finish. You can really see the care in every part of the room. It was just spooky enough for us!
PlaygroundThe Escape Game Houston - CityCentreEscape roomIRLTruly a unique experience, and one so large and collaborative that I have played it twice with two different groups! It's got a theme that isn't completely novel, but the execution is top notch.
Special Ops: Mysterious MarketThe Escape Game Houston - CityCentreEscape roomIRLA great room with a very interesting twist. I did feel like the sections of the room were a little disjointed, but I think that, for this one in particular, that is part of what makes it so memorable.
Gold RushThe Escape Game Houston - CityCentreEscape roomIRLMiddle of the road for The Escape Game, but still quality compared to your average room. The setting and props are high quality, and the puzzles are all well themed for the room.

The HeistThe Escape Game Houston - CityCentreEscape roomIRLA good heist room, but the puzzles are a bit forgettable.
French Quarter House Of CuriositiesClue CarréEscape roomIRLMy favorite game that we played at this location. The room is themed for the city without being too touristy, and the puzzles are well integrated into the space. I really enjoyed the first set of puzzles, where you can work several of them at the same time and/or in any order.
House Of Eternal Return [Immersive Art]Meow WolfEscape roomIRLNot really an escape room per se, but more of an art installation meets immersive mystery. The House of Eternal Return has a way of making you feel alone in a lot of spaces even when it's packed. Some extremely memorable spaces and art pieces await, and the story is pretty rewarding, if you take the time to read/watch a lot of it and get invested in the fate of the family
