Outbreak

A below-average vaccine type room. There were a couple of fun things, but most were puzzles that have been done at other places. We had a couple of random people join our game, which may have impacted the experience.

Dramatic music played the whole time, and there was a corpse in the second room. I’m not a fan of zombie rooms in the first place, but I found this one particularly unsettling. There were only 2 puzzles in the entire experience that I enjoyed; everything else was very out-of-pocket.

Set was done well but that was the only thing I liked about the game and just barely because there were so many props hat were part of set it was impossible to tell what information was needed and what was irrelevant. Would not recommend. The hosts were super friendly but there flying system doesn’t allow you to ask for hints. They provide hints when they feel you are struggling.

It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s missing here, but the whole group left thinking…..that was only ok. The puzzles were fine enough, but the set design felt second-rate. Nothing was broken or malfunctioning, but I think the “props” (non-gameplay items just for design) felt kinda icky. I didn’t feel like I was in a medical lab, I felt like I was in the storage closet where they keep old broken stuff that nobody cleaned. There were some creative and enjoyable puzzle solutions but there was also a deluge of unincorporated data/writing/reading material as well as time-suck red herrings that were more annoying than clever. In the end, it all felt a bit sloppy. Some escape rooms feel curated for an awesome experience. This room feels more like it was slapped together for a business opportunity.

Fun challenging room. One of the pieces to the room wasn’t working properly but when the staff noticed, they stopped the time to help us out and added back the time we lost. This is the 4th room I’ve done at this location and the first time there was any sort of malfunction with part of the room

I loved this escape room. Some parts had all of our group stuck for quite a bit. But I think that’s just good puzzle making. Though I may add that parts of this room are scary/disturbing, so do not bring youth, and be warned.
