Crane ManorClue IQEscape roomIRLWOW!! This was the first room we’ve done that was over 60 minutes and we were not disappointed at all. ClueIQ were able to fit so many different and unique puzzles in the room, that worked well with the theme. I feel that the atmosphere of the “manor” really drove this room forward and kept us on our toes the whole time. Really fun room and would highly recommend! (We can’t wait to do their other rooms) 8.9/10
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz13th Hour Escape RoomEscape roomIRLWow! This was an absolute adventure from beginning to end. The room was one of, if not, the most well designed rooms that I have ever played in. You are fully immersed in the story the moment you step into the room. All I can say is wow and that this is a must do room!
The Grand Parlor13th Hour Escape RoomEscape roomIRLYou know a room is above and beyond when you want to go back and play it again. 13th Hour and The Grand Parlor live up to the hype!!! We completed this as a group of 2, but instantly wished we had AT LEAST a group of 4. There is so much to see and do that we did miss some pieces to certain puzzles and could’ve used more eyes to pick up on them. The only negative was that we felt rushed from the time we stepped through the door to the time we left. We never got a second to really appreciate the experience. This may be due to the fact that they are always completely booked especially on weekends (maybe try going during the week). THIS IS A MUST DO ROOM! 9.4/10
ExcaliburClue IQEscape roomIRLIf you are into medieval times, you will love this room. Clue IQ really goes above and beyond with their attention to detail when it comes to the atmosphere of their rooms. The puzzles were clever and stuck to the theme. Add it to your wishlist! 8.4/10
8-bit EscapeRavenchase: Escape Room HerndonEscape roomIRLThis was the final room that we needed to complete at ERH, and they just do not miss with any of their rooms. Right as the game master opens the door for you to enter this room, you are going to be fully immersed in a living room based in the 80s. Everything about this room, from the props to the puzzles themselves make this one of, if not the most perfect 80s themed rooms out there. This room was nonstop fun (even with us being born in the late 90s) and had some very unique puzzles that went with the theme as well. The final part of the room was so much fun and really ended the room with a bang! There is a bonus puzzle after completing the room if you finished in a certain amount of time, which isn’t too difficult. Overall, this was a great room and if you are in the area, it is a must do. 8.5/10
Magician's WorkshopRavenchase: Escape Room HerndonEscape roomIRLBy far, one of the best experiences we’ve had in any escape room. After completing 60 rooms, this is definitely in our top 3 favorite rooms so far. There are so many different unique elements to this room that you just have to do to experience yourselves. Can’t say much more without spoiling the room, so do yourselves a favor and come out and do this room! 9.2/10
The Jungle DimensionPuzzle TheoryEscape roomIRLHonestly a great room! Might not give you the full challenge you are hoping for, but will definitely take you through a Jumanji-like world and give you a thrill! There was a mixture of pretty standard puzzles with some unique ones as well. My girlfriend and I escaped the room in well under an hour but would highly recommend for others. You will come out of the room with a smile on your face, win or lose! 8.5/10
The Graverobber's DilemmaRavenchase: Escape Room HerndonEscape roomIRLAnother good room done by Ravenchase. Some challenging puzzles and a few jump scares. 8.2/10
Poe's ChamberEscape Room ArlingtonEscape roomIRLMy girlfriend and I really enjoy escape rooms and have this one high on our list. The atmosphere of the room was very well done and the game flowed well. Highly recommend to other escape room players, even though this game is definitely on the easier side. The only minor downfall was that some puzzles took longer to complete than we thought. 7.9/10
BlitzkriegClue IQEscape roomIRLThe instant we stepped to the door, we knew it was going to be a good one. We felt fully immersed the whole time and the room and its puzzles flowed very well. Although, the exit didn’t feel grand compared to the journey along the way this is still another great room made by Clue IQ. If you are in the area, Clue IQ is definitely a must do destination! 8.3/10
