Mark as done to rate

In the middle of no man’s land, where the terrain is barren and unforgiving, lies a secret unconfirmed military compound called Area 15. Conspiracies and rumors surround this place, as some believe it houses extraterrestrial materials gathered from an alien spacecraft that crashed years earlier. But even more believe that alien autopsies were performed there. You have gathered some of those believers to help you uncover the truth of what is actually there. Equipped with a flashlight and a map given to you by another truth seeker, your group sets out on The Extraterrestrial Highway to no man’s land.

Solid extraterrestrial room with tons to do for a team. Puzzles were decently themed and everything made sense. I appreciated that locks were labeled well to what puzzles they went to. Lock and key heavy room. Would recommend for space type movie enthusiasts

Fun room. Bummed we didn’t escape, but enjoyed playing. We made it to the last puzzle when our time was up. Palmer, our GM was great and spent a lot of time with us in the room after going over some of the puzzles and other fun facts about the room.

The room had a lot of puzzles but low immersion. Our group of 4 definitely had lots to do and ended up not making it out since we had just gotten to the last puzzle when time ran out. Overall a decent room especially if you want something difficult, but there could be improvements to the decor, relevance of puzzles, and amount of tech.

Gameplay

Lots of puzzles and difficult enough for escape room lovers

Atmosphere

Low immersion and not much technology

I would recommend this room for any puzzle-lovers; it was just really fun to do! It starts out a bit linear but goes into non-linear quickly. The only thing I wish is that the set looked nicer and was more immersive. I think if they gave it a glow-up, this room would have the space to shine; the vision for the room is great and our group really enjoyed the puzzles! This room also has a lot of goodies for sci-fi lovers.

One puzzle wasn't working smoothly but the GM was able to guide us through it and it wasn't distracting.

It's a step up from standing/walking around.

Some use of color.

Easy to find location

Yes

Very easy, just follow google maps. The place can look closed from the outside because you can't really see the lights, but just go up and open the doors.

Parking

Easy

Parking lot right outside the entrance, lots of free parking.

Loved area 15’s puzzles. The immersion is pretty light as it’s a lot of sci fi fan service, which is fine, but I personally like a bit more immersion. The puzzles were a lot of fun and clever though!

We have done over a hundred rooms and we did this one twice bc we didn’t finish it the first time. It was challenging and very smart. The owners are always helpful when we go to their location and truly care :)

We had SUCH a great experience with Deceptive Games! Last minute we found this location and decided to do the Area 15 room. Our GM Amity was super honest in the beginning and told us as a group of four we probably would have a pretty hard time completing the room, but even so, we accepted her challenged and finished with a few minutes to spare! Amity was definitely a very helpful figure in our completion as she was extremely observant and offered us great "nudges" to hint us in the right direction vs telling us flat out how to solve something. Thank you for such a fun experience and we can't wait to come back to try their other rooms!
