Mark as done to rate

The year is 1944; the height of World War II. The US Navy is fighting to establish a position of dominance over the enemy. Tensions are high and the crew is on maximum alert. You are onboard the Steel Shark - the US Navy’s prized submarine, deep in the North Atlantic Ocean on a vitally important mission to spy on the German Battle Cruiser, Scheer. The mission is going smoothly until, without warning, the submarine plunges into the sea. The engines have died and pressure in the cabin is quickly increasing. The hull is cracking under the immense pressure of the seabed and, without power, only 60 minutes of reserve oxygen remains! You and the crew must act quickly so you can continue your mission. If you succeed, you’ll not only survive but will surely become national heroes. Looking around you begin to discover clues that lead you to believe this wasn’t an accident, but sabotage by German secret agents. They have removed six oxygen silos and hidden them around the ship. You’ll need to scour the mess hall, rummage through the control room, and uncover the silos to repair the steel Shark. Can you reinstate the power and help the Steel Shark back to the surface before the entire crew perishes? Oxygen is already running out!

Design was fairly low budget in this game. A lot of printed decals and rough paint work. The game was heavy on math which, in my opinion, makes for a less fun experience. Overall gameplay and layout felt lazy and seemed to be conceptualized and built in less than a week.

Immersion was pretty low and was a hard sell. At no point do you feel anything like you're in a submarine.

Under Pressure at Escapology Orlando is an exciting, immersive faux underwater submarine adventure. The set design is wonderfully done using technology to create the illusion that the players are actually under water. The sound design is excellent. The puzzles are fun and logical. The game flows well. Overall it’s a fun game with a bit of something for everyone from searching to interactive physical puzzles to more traditional puzzles you might expect in a submarine theme. I’d especially recommend this game to families and friend groups.

All in all, it was a fun room, it felt easy to me, might be because of obtaining experience and you start to pick up on things easier, I would recommend this room for beginners or 2 people would be more than enough! 😎

Very fun and straightforward submarine room. The decor was simple, yet effective. Thumbs up. We had four people, but this could have easily been done with two.

The room is very small in some parts, we had 8 people going in and were extremely cramped. The room was good though, would just recommend no more than 4 people on your team.

This room was amazing. The theming was outstanding and made us feel like we were in this whole new world. Everyone had something to do and puzzles were hard but solvable leaving that feeling of pride when you solve something. Totally recommend to all!

We had five and still had space to move around. What is great is that you go back to the other rooms ti solve more unfinished clues so everyone is spread out.
