At Odds With The Gods

I wanted to love this room so much, because I love the theme of Greek gods in Greek mythology. It started off fine as we got the first few puzzles, but it seemed to go off the rails pretty quickly after that. This room is not entirely linear which in itself is not a problem. Also, one of the locks was not functioning properly, and the room was not set up properly we found out, which is why that lock did not function It’s very lock heavy, which normally doesn’t bother me, but when you have the same type of lock in multiple places, and one code that you have to try in multiple places, it gets frustrating, especially when the puzzles don’t give you an idea of which lock or even room. This room will have you running all over the place throughout the rooms. I also am not a fan of when the puzzles are extra hard just to be hard. For instance, you solve the puzzle but then you need to solve something else in order to solve the actual puzzle again. It was unnecessarily difficult, with the intent to trip you up and not necessarily logical. So it just felt disheartening when you thought you figured it out. I didn’t like that we had multiple game masters, and when we asked for a hint, we didn’t know who we were getting, and they usually would ask us what we wanted, so you could tell they were not watching what we were doing, and we had to explain where we are, or what we wanted help with. Just seemed impersonal. One of my biggest disappointments was the chalkboard slate thing in this room, or whatever you wanted to call it, it was absolutely disappointing and unusable, which is what they expected you to write with while you solve puzzles. And you absolutely need to in this room to have something to write and take notes with.

Finished the room with just my husband and I, parts of it were very challenging but in a fun way - it was a great way for us to experience a 90 minute room.

This was a solid gen 1 room! Lots and lots and lots of tactile puzzles that had you moving lots of bits and pieces which we still enjoyed! I enjoyed the theme quite a lot, but wish the scenic and pieces of the puzzles could have been touched up just a bit. I still had fun at the end of the day!

I enjoyed At Odds With the Gods! While I’m not the biggest fan of locks, the puzzles behind them were neat.

We played this room as a foursome and it was fine - pretty easy, no clues with plenty of time to spare. The puzzles kept us all busy in different areas. While it wasn’t anything to write home about, it was okay.

This room was definitely a challenge for us after 2 other 60+ minute games. But the room was wonderfully done, nonlinear with some great challenges. Definitely worth playing!

We enjoyed the room, but didn’t care of the experience. We played this room before rooms were private and ended up with some not so great people on our team. We still escaped however the other people kind of killed the experience for us

Not very memorable- often forget that we’ve done this one. Not bad and we escaped with 2 people but nothing terribly exciting.

Not the best room I’ve ever done, but loved the extended gameplay. I was a Classical Studies major in college, so this had all the feels. Super fun Greek theming.
