As a avid Dnd fan, I really like the set theming and the puzzles were fun! This is definitely a hard game for just 2 people. While the puzzles themselves make sense, the game flow seemed a bit all over the place and this lead to a decent amount of confusion. Unfortunately we didn’t get out and I was a little bummed because it sounded like we were completing the last puzzle. I think it would be a bit more doable if the game flow was addressed. Overall, I love this place and the people seemed so sweet. I look forward to come back and play their other 2 rooms!

Thoroughly enjoyed this room. The puzzles in this room very much had some ingenuity to them. Highly recommend! The ending is probably the first I’ve seen.
There were a couple of puzzles that at first my brain didn’t comprehend but the aha moment was worth it
This establishments attention to detail is great!

This game was fun but the two of us found the gameplay difficult because it wasn’t evident what to do next when you completed a puzzle or challenge.

Here’s my humble opinion of what separates good from great to incredible escape rooms: FLOW. Good ones are thematic and challenging. Great ones are intuitive from A to B to C with blending into the theme. Incredible rooms put you in the EXACT plotline and order the room wants you to go, enhancing the plot, which nudgestt you in the right solution direction without needing a clue. This falls between good and great. All the puzzles were thematic and difficult, all the mechanisms and tech were seamless, but it wasn’t clear where to begin or go next. Each of the 4 orbs seemingly were isolated from each other (probably for groups to work separately) but it wasn’t clear what order you needed to solve the leftover lockboxes and mech. The last orb box order wasn’t intuitive, until the game master gave clues, which was frustrating to need that so close to the end because there were three areas where design impeded the escapist and burned unnecessary time. The artifact map, the fire box and the swords. I’d HIGHLY recommend this room for novice groups of 2-4, but a solo player has to be very fast, very experienced and guess-right-the-first-time-lucky to finish the room in time. While that seems negative, the props, plot, design, character, theme, and mech were incredible. I’d play it again with first timers. Loved it.
Flow wasn’t easily apparent thanks to multiple written guide/clues at the beginning. Revealing them in order would improve flow, but this was clearly a decision to give larger teams divided responsibilities.

This is one of the best immersive room in Orlando area. The atmosphere were great, puzzles were reasonably challenged, and the flow of the game were flawless. With that being said, this room falls on the medium-hard level even for experienced players, but GM does a great job monitoring the game to make sure people have fun. This is a must play escape room if you’re in the area.

This was another solid room that we enjoyed. I would consider it hard (we were a group of 2) the atmosphere is good. We enjoyed ourselves.

This was a pretty hard game. I struggled in the beginning but thought the 2nd half of the puzzles flowed really well. The gm was kind and gave us just the right amount of help.

Really enjoyed this game, glad we had three players as it would have been a lot for just 2 of us
“The puzzles felt chunky and tangible. The challenges were thematic... far exceeds what you’d expect“
“... we were impressed with how much work clearly went into this room.“
