Subway Escape

Went with my spouse and two kids (14 and 11). The puzzles were not hard. The game master Brianna was very good at guiding us. It is a fun room for family with children. There is not a lot of space. Four people would be good size.

Place was very difficult to find. It was A very hot and humid day and there was no air conditioning in the room. So we were already in a bad mood by the time we got started. The set looked really good, but the first few puzzles were not good. A little too much “guess what the designer was thinking”. And one of them involved hiding one of four items from us until we’ll after we had solved the puzzle with just three bits - and tried our wrong combo and double checked our math several times. It was not-a-red-herring in only the technical sense. Anyway, after about 30 minutes the heat and frustration got to be too much for us and we left without completing the room.

Loved the subway atmosphere. Great attention to detail in set design. Mid game the power went out in whole complex. Staff did everything they could to get it restored and once they did we resumed the game. Variety of puzzle types. Gamemaster was very helpful. Fun game but with a part we were a little unsure if it was part of the game or behind the scenes of the room. Industrial area with awful roads leading to place so drive carefully once you’re in the complex.
