    Incredible. Not as hard as we made it out to be.

    Awesome room! Every puzzle was thematic and added to the experience. Highly recommend.

    Really nice room. Lots of interesting puzzles. Didn’t find any overly difficult. Nice décor. Overall we (4) had a great time and didn’t get stuck anywhere for too long. One thing to note - this room is not accessible to mobility impaired.

    Did this one with the family, including a 7 and 10 year old. We ran through it very quickly but had a good time. For us, it was a bit on the easy side, but for beginners, this would be an excellent room.

    Amazing set design. Fun puzzles (mostly). Almost great. This would be an amazing escape room if it were 2 escape rooms. It is, on purpose, too difficult / long. We made it to the last room when time expired. There were 12 more non-linear puzzles in the final room. The game master told us that most people don’t even make it to the last room. Some groups come back 3 or 4 times in order to complete it. This is a feature, not a bug. Great fun, but if you want to see the ending, be prepared to play it multiple times. Biggest complaint- there is a jigsaw puzzle element that cannot be circumvented. This is 100% a time sink and serves no other purpose and was in no way fun for us. Imagine everyone sitting on the floor doing nothing while 1 or 2 other people struggle with a jigsaw puzzle for 15 minutes.

    Fun room. Played with the family, including 2 young children (6 and 9). I am not a fan of the non-verbal GM (all prompts we’re done via video screen), but overall, very fun experience. The kids loved it!

    Nice room. A little dated, but overall nice for beginners. The QR code hint system was a bit of a turn off, but the overall experience made up for it.

    Fun room. Overall, so nice challenges. Was a bit on the easy side but not a walkthrough. My biggest issue with the room that made it a like and not a love was the use of a jigsaw puzzle. I hate those and see them as only existing to eat up time. Just a personal preference. The puzzles were thematic and everything looked like it belonged.

    Waaaaay harder than it had to be. Really cool theme with a ton of puzzles and no hand holding. Not very modern - almost completely physical locks. I did enjoy the experience, but be warned, it is absolutely an expert level room.

    Fun room. More mechanical than I would have liked but enough tech to keep it interesting. It is on the easier side of things but still takes some time. Nice teamwork elements.
