29 escape rooms
We saved this room for last at this venue because it was supposedly the most difficult. We did need some hints in this room but probably more due to malfunctioning puzzles and poor design compared to other rooms we completed there. It was fun and we all enjoyed it, but it was no one’s favorite in our group of 4. One puzzle in particular was super annoying and didn’t seem to be working correctly. It’s a fine room if you’re an enthusiast and want to complete as many rooms as possible that are good/fine rooms. But I wouldn’t choose this as a first room for a newbie, and nothing about it stands out as great. It’s just Ok.
Gameplay
The game fits in pretty well with other escapology games we’ve played (this was the last one we completed at the Fayetteville location, having done all the others). I will say in my opinion it wasn’t as “tight” in gameplay, flow, puzzle quality compared to the others in our opinion.
Atmosphere
Several fun surprises. Interesting setting and story.

It fits in with most other escapology games. Not super high tech but not just boxes and locks either.

Fine for young teens/pre teens
Was anything broken?
Yes
One of the puzzles was broken which allowed us to bypass the puzzle altogether. We didn’t realize it until the debriefing when we asked why we hadn’t needed a particular clue/item. Another puzzle wasn’t broken per se, but kept malfunctioning. When we asked for a hint we were simply given the solution, so I’m guessing this is a common occurrence.
