Holy smokes - you just secured an apprenticeship with one of the most acclaimed tattoo shops in the world: Hidden Needle Tattoo Parlor. You and your team of rookies have been paired with the shop's most... "eclectic"artist: Arthur "Gator" Miller. ​ It's crucial that you and your team of rookies make a solid impression. Can you work up the ranks as a newb and develop a tattoo talent as impressive as Gator? Well, he's sure to be the judge of that! ​ If you can survive Gator's freaky fast-paced apprenticeship, you're set to secure a booth at any shop of your choice. I'm sure it will also make for one heck of a good story.

73 escape rooms

This is a fun room with a unique theme. We enjoyed the different types of puzzles and clues. It is not always obvious which clue goes with which lock and there are some red herrings but that makes the room harder. It was a fun, collaborative room. It’s clear that the owner and staff love what they do. I also really enjoy the small trinkets that this escape room sometimes gives you as a reward for completing the room.

Gameplay

You have access to a lot of the clues at once so sometimes we spent too much time on clues that we didn’t know that we didn’t have all of the information on yet. The flow is still good.

Atmosphere

Great atmosphere and immersion

Customer service

Staff was kind and friendly despite us showing up late due to a festival that made it hard to find parking.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Cool theme

Story

Scary

Not scary

Minimum age

15

Some of the decor in the room involves tattoos of pinups and animals humping.

Was anything broken?

Yes

Not broken when we began but a key element malfunctioned. It slowed us down but the GM’s added extra time to our clock and found a creative solution to the technical problem. I would expect some kinks like this with any game that is within it’s first month of opening.

Live actors

No

No, but the GM’s get into character to immerse you in the storyline before entering the room.

Physically active

Not at all

One of the least physically active rooms I have been in and it seems like it would be accessible to wheelchair users.

Accessibility

The lighting is dim and the music is loud. There is a color based clue. Aside from that, the room feels accessible.

Easy to find location

Yes

Parking

Medium

You have to park up the street but we found an open spot. The staff were helpful with suggestions on where to park.
