On the run from local law enforcement, you decided to follow leads that were left behind at Occam's Apartment and you determined that the Norcross Art Gallery is where "he" likely is operating out of. Hopefully you’ll find a way to prove your innocence…

Art Gallery goes heavy on the puzzles and integration of technology. Everything done here is an improvement off the original gallery. Spacious and non linear this is a fun game which continues the storyline lightly. Minimally dark tones/ scary when the time is right.

120 escape rooms

This was an interesting room with lots of interactive technology. Our team of 3 got through the room quickly. This room requires a lot of teamwork and communication so if you don’t talk and like to go off on your own you will get frustrated. Work as a team! The storyline gets a little jumbled for me in this room, but once the rest of the rooms to the story are complete I imagine it will all make sense. I imagine that as an owner designer it has to be difficult to make a “fun” art gallery themed escape room, they do a really great job of creating an immersive and fun environment. This room has something for everyone. Young technology driven players and players that prefer more traditional puzzles will all have something to do. I love that the owner has a plan to create an entire escape room town/world around the characters and story. So of course a small town museum would be here and talks about the history of the founding families.

A lot of interactive technology in this room which was fun, but not your typical escape room type puzzles. There were some traditional puzzles too so it was a nice combination.

Atmosphere

Set design was beautiful. Once again this company definitely knows how to set a mood. I actually felt like I was in a wing of a museum and the little brochures that talk about the art and gift shop catalog etc. Super immersive

Customer service

By far the friendliest staff and owner

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

I imagine it’s difficult to create a museum themed room and yet still keep it interesting. They had interactive iPads (like most museums are trending to), interactive art walls and a gift shop that all incorporated puzzles and an interesting twist at the end.

Story

I’m still trying to piece the story together in my mind but again this is a must room story and since the other rooms aren’t done yet I can’t close the story. There were some story breakthroughs in this room that were revealed but still not sure how it all goes together

Difficulty

Medium

The puzzles weren’t particularly difficult but some of the elements required finite precision which made us question if we were doing them wrong

100% high tech.

Ideal number of players

4

Anymore than this may cause some to be bored

Scary

Spooky

It had some spooky elements but overall not scary

Minimum age

10

Younger could interact with technology but some of the other puzzles may be to complex

Was anything broken?

No

Live actors

Yes

Yes and No…the “character” is kind of a constant throughout the stories and is present at points but not actively participating in the room

Physically active

Somewhat

Some minor lifting and high stepping but mostly chill

Accessibility

Color blindness, hearing disabilities and vision may be an issue in some areas especially the interactive iPads and mobility if you can’t high step might be difficult to access a part of the experience. If you get claustrophobic, there is a part of the experience that you may choose to skip.

Easy to find location

Yes

No exterior signage that is visible from the road but GPS got us there without any issues

Parking

Easy

TONS of parking in front of building in private parking lot

This was a very well-done art gallery room, probably the only art gallery themed room I've done that I’d actually recommend to people. The room continue OTC’s difficult but well done and well integrated puzzles, and their wonderful set design and immersion. Some of the puzzles could be a little finicky on how precise you had to be with little guidance on where to actually set some stuff which was a tad annoying. But all in all, yet another great room from OTC. They’re a hidden gem, and I highly recommend them, and what the owner is doing with his plans for 12 rooms encompassing a total of 24 hours of interconnected game time is really really cool, and I can’t wait to see it pan out further.

Art gallery was a fantastic room and a wonderful continuation to the Asheville storyline. The puzzles were all clever and use technology seamlessly. The environment was convincing without being overcrowded, and the storyline was dense with twists and turns. OTC is a can't miss venue in South Bay!
