I can’t say enough good things about this room! I loved how immersive the room was and the puzzles flowed pretty nicely!

I thought the storyline was cute, but some of the puzzles were convoluted, not complex. I was very confused when I realized we won, because it felt like there was still more to do…
It wasn’t very immersive, aside from the fake cockroaches
Set design was good! I enjoyed the atmosphere.
They were…okay. I wish there were a ‘meh’ option here. They were kind enough to wait for our late party but didn’t celebrate our victory or offer to take a group photo after.

Marked as max 8, but it’s a single room and no more than 4 are needed

This one was a bummer for me. The reviews had me unsure, but hopeful and it’s a no from me dawg. The puzzles were a bit standard escape room-ish, which I don’t mind - but it’s like there weren’t enough puzzles and they were too long? Like one component too many in each puzzle. We couldn’t really split up either like we like to do. There just wasn’t enough for a group of 5 to do. I don’t think we’ll try any others at Will To Escape.

Great room, was more challenging than I personally expected. It had some unique puzzles that I thought were pretty cool. Requires a good amount of communication and team work for some puzzles. Game master was fantastic. We had 4 people and escaped with very minimal clues. Loved the ambiance, felt truly immersed.

I really wanted to like this room. I’ve heard good things about their Jupiter Location so I figured I’d give this place a shot. The room had absolutely no flow to it and we found ourselves having to ask for clues for every singe puzzle. When asking for clues, it felt as though they were giving us a pre-typed out answer and didn’t really answer our questions. I’m willing to try other ones at this venue but I think I’d pass on this room. 🫶
There’s absolutely no flow.
I did like their immersion. You walk in and it really feels like you’re in the NYC subway system.

There are some color based puzzles, reading graffiti, and low lighting. No issues for mobility though.

It’s tucked away in a shopping center like a City Walk or Disney Springs.

There’s a parking garage right next to it.

First time at this venue. I wasn’t overly impressed. It was a solid 3 star experience. The staff was not unfriendly but also just mostly seemed uninterested. The games were $40 which to me seemed a bit pricey before going in. After doing it, it’ll be a while before I return. At least they validate parking for the nearby garage, one per group. The game was linear and just wasn’t super fun to me. There is a dry erase board, but you can’t access it until 1/4 way into the game. It’s bolted to the wall and the only surface you can write on, which was a bit annoying for some puzzles. The story telling just wasn’t there for me. It was a fun game but it won’t be remembered as a memorable experience.
It was 100% linear which I am not a fan of. It was a little more underwhelming of a puzzle flow than I was hoping for.
For what it was, it was a decent job on theming and immersion. I was hoping for more of a subway tunnel than just a room with graffiti and a maintenance office. But it was a solid C on my grade scale.
The staff was less friendly than I would have liked. One was just meh on welcoming and introducing us to our game. Our game guide seemed disinterested after we finished. They helped us with any post game questions, but once we were out of the room there was no return salesmanship or personal touch. During the game, at times they were attentive and alerted us to user error mistakes and other times we had to use a clue to learn we did something right, it just didn’t activate.
