Immersive, unique, exciting, tactile, and fun! The set was whimsical, the puzzles were integrated into the story, everything was fairly clued, and there was always something interesting to do. Fantastically executed room that players of all experience levels will enjoy.

Gameplay

So many highly unique interactions. You always knew what to do next, and rarely was anyone left without something to do.

Atmosphere

The set was expertly built and felt unique, intentional, and immersive. Props had weight and their own identity. The floor was sandy! The generator was very satisfying to interact with, and several puzzle reveals were dramatic and surprising.

Customer service

Some of the kindest owners I've ever met. We felt welcome, appreciated, and important. Great people!

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Puzzles are very elegantly highlighted. You always know what's in play and what to do next. The way that puzzles hide or de-emphasize themselves after you solve them was especially impressive.

Story

While visiting this isle as part of a travel club, we discover an upset entity. All the puzzles fit the location and theme, and everything feels thematically appropriate.

Difficulty

Easy

No clues needed because everything is very fairly clued, and it's always obvious what you need to interact with to progress.

Game tech

High tech

Tree stumps, generators, baskets, giant dials, vines, arrowheads, and crystals are just a few of the interactions that use technology. Though there are traditional locks, this room has so much elegant technology integrated cleanly.

Somewhat

There's one puzzle with a non-traditional solution that requires a little activity.

Accessibility

There is a step to get to one section of the room, so people who use wheelchairs would likely need someone else to work that section.

Easy to find location

Yes

While easy to find, The Greatest Escape was flagged in a different part of the strip mall in Apple Maps.

Very fun and unexpected game. Picked this game because it was highly rated and it dd not disappoint. It was very immersive from top to bottom. Great effects, esthetics and puzzles that fit the game. No game timer, so that was frustrating. The ending was a little unclear and the story seemed slightly choppy. Nevertheless, great game all around. I’ll eventually do the rest of their games. Seems like most of there games will be pretty good here.

Do not judge the room on the size. It is a decent sized room comfortable for 5-6, but the puzzles will take up to 8. That is right 8 people can solve this room. All I could saw was finally a room that more than 3 people can participate in. The design of the room is just perfect the right flow, the right amount of puzzles and a cool and funny storyline. The creators really did a fantastic job on splitting up the group (finally no more watching other people solve puzzles). I had to ask after the experience was over how did you solve that because I missed what my teammates solved. This is an experience players dream (if you like solving puzzles), but a beginner player would struggle at first because it is non-linear, but after a couple puzzles solved they should be okay. The special effects was just fantastic and honestly the most enjoyable experience I had in a while. I felt very relaxed and really got to enjoy my experience. Usually with non-linear rooms you can get the paths mixed up, but some how in this room the creators (had to be very experienced) because there is no possible way you can mix up any of the paths. Don’t know how they did that. Also at one point we had 3 different paths going (Mind blowing) so much was happening in a good way. Also a very clever game clock. It is not your typical clock which I loved. Overall a fun time and a great escape room facility. Just a fantastic mom and pop shop. Can’t wait to come back and back again. My group and I noticed that this escape room facility is one of the cheaper escape rooms in Arizona, but are better than some of the more expensive ones in my Groups Opinion. Definitely recommend to anyone who loves escape rooms!

All I could say about this room is WOW! What just happened. It was so amazing and cool I wanted to come back and just appreciate all the decor and craziness that happened throughout the game. Hands down one of my top favorites. Make sure you listen to Wisdom and bring your thinking cap. In my opinion this company has the best puzzles I have ever seen. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a crazy fun room at an affordable price.

Great rooms. Impressive, unique detail/layout. Puzzles flowed and made sense once solved, earning the difficulty rating. No silly curveballs that are only done to confuse players and up the “difficulty” level.
