The Experiment

Very fun room! A bit confused on the older thumbs down review, this is not a single room adventure and there is an elevator system to be ADA friendly. Regardless, this room was a nice science based room without any technical knowledge need. The puzzles were pretty unique that I haven't seen before. Not exceptionally challenging, but was a great time. It didn't feel too much like an escape room, rather playing around with science based toys. Fun!

Several clever puzzles with a wide range of thinking challenges. Our GM was awesome and walked us through the puzzles we didn’t complete after time had lapsed. It was end of day so no other groups after us, but this was the first time a GM has tried to give us a chance to still solve a little of the puzzles with some ‘guidance’ vs. just tell us what we missed. This was such a treat and very appreciated! Highly recommend this room, but for more than 2 peeps. We are challenged anyways when it comes to escape rooms, but confident we aren’t the only duo that could have benefited from some additional minds.

My fiancé and I have played dozens of rooms together across the country. Several puzzles were unique throughout this one. We loved the creativity! We will be back again tonight to play the darkroom with a friend. To be continued…

2 people should be well enough for this room and some puzzles are quite unique.

The Experiment is a science themed room with several unique elements related to experiments. Though a single area, this is a good room for a group to divide and conquer. We were able to make a puzzle work the wrong way, and the GM said he’d never seen any team do that. Ooops! GM was enthusiastic and friendly. Parking at the location was limited, you may need to walk. The building location is only accessible by stairs.

This room was fun, but it didn’t stand out like other rooms that I have done in the past at other places.

Starting off, the location is not accessible for small children, strollers, older individuals, etc. as you have to find the entrance at the back of the building with no available elevator. The four of us decided to do “the experiment” as we all have a science background. Of course this room had no science related puzzles until the very last objective (which understandably didn’t require science knowledge), it was more math than science. This was a minimalist single room. Sparingly designed. Only a few puzzles that were more time consuming than difficult. The gear wheels were lose so the displayed message was incorrect. The hints given by the game master were unhelpful, telling us what we already knew. If I pay for an escape room and require a hint, I expect you to help us MOVE forward. The storyline was flat and honestly, some say, completely missing. After experiencing other escape rooms, and seeing the positive reviews online and the Morty app, I had high hopes which were distinguished quickly. 20 bucks maybe but 35, no way. Positive thing is there was one musical contraption that required creative engineering. That’s it. For that reason, more experienced players and beginners alike should stay away.
