Mark as done to rate

Harvard undergraduate Ryan Smith, a promising, young student of computer science has gone missing. You are Ryan Smith’s close friends who, despairing that the police will never find Ryan, decide to take matters into your own hands to investigate. Ryan is a model student, but as his friends, you all noticed him acting a little weird lately. Together, you conclude that everything went bad for Ryan after he became a volunteer in Dr. Aheid’s mind-enhancement research-study here on campus. At first, Ryan claims to have benefited from the experiment and said he felt like his brain was on overdrive even though, during therapy, the gas also made him fall fast asleep. Eventually though, Ryan began having vivid waking nightmares and became increasingly paranoid. Unsure if it was a dream Ryan once claimed to have woken up during the experiment to Dr. Aheid and his assistant having a ferocious fight over who should get the bigger cut selling the experimental gas to their shadowy foreign client. It wasn’t long after this that he went missing. With the help of Ryan’s best friend and roommate, Huxley the computer hacker, you steal the janitor’s keys and quietly sneak into The Demented Dr. Aheid’s office to discover the truth.

I was pleasantly surprised by this experience. There felt like there were more clues than average, but the clues were all manageable. The clues were largely mechanical in nature, but they were quite unique. The input for the clues was largely alpha numeric combinations so I would have liked some diversity. This is the locations oldest room, and the production quality was fair. The team was super nice and I’ll be looking to come back to them to do the other rooms. We completed it as a group of two. Three might be our ideal group size.

There’s a part where you need to climb through a low space which could be difficult for people with mobility impairments. However there is in alternative way in if you’re so inclined. A teammate will need to let you in.

This room is brand new and yet it feels dated. It’s a very basic room, with neither great puzzles or great atmosphere. Our GM was very friendly and enthusiastic but didn’t love the room itself. Sorry.

Thai was a really fun room with good puzzles 🧩 Game Master was really nice and helpful. The room gets progressively harder. So don’t get over confident at the beginning. We just made it out which is the way we like it (adds that adrenaline kick). Can’t wait until their other rooms open.

This is a great date spot. It’s on the marina and there’s an outdoor restaurant near the lighthouse. Dinner and an escape room - what could be better? It’s a fantastic Gen 1 game. It’s super lock and key with some fun surprises.
