49 escape rooms

This is one of the better rooms at Escape the Room, in my opinion (though the rooms here overall I find to be hit or miss). This one feels significantly more fair than The Dig and The Home. The James Bond theme is fairly well executed and the set dressing leads to a number of good a-ha moments. We didn’t need THAT many clues, but the ones we received were welcome given that it treaded in the areas of “yeah, we wouldn’t have figured that out.” Not the best room, but by no means bad. I recommend this if you’re an avid escaper and looking to round out a day of escapes.

Probably the most linear game here, and an okay time. I would say one of their better rooms. I just can’t recommend this place after witnessing the owner’s treatment of some of the team members. Save your money, as there are just as good and better rooms in the city.

I played this game many years ago as one of my first escape room experiences, and to this day it’s the worst I’ve done. Lackluster theming, and a game component was unplugged by a stranger in our shared game. Our guide let us know it was now impossible to win as the PC took too long to reboot. Maybe they’ve improved it by now, but I can only review my own past experience
