Playground

My issues have little to do with the gameplay itself: The room has much too big a permissible number of players. Another group joined ours at the last minute and was essentially cut out of gameplay. We also had to wait for them to begin, despite the fact my group was on time. However, the playground is a lot of fun, has a lot of pieces that you could play with outside the room, and the puzzles were challenging but fairly accessible.

Escape Game does it again. Hands down one of the best companies out there. This game is as fun as it is challenging. We had a group of four and we are relatively experienced and we had a blast.

This was such a fun game! We had three people out of the recommended 12, so the overall gameplay was more difficult than the 6/10 rating. This game was big, with multiple rooms and spread out clues so I can see how more people would be helpful.

Super unique theme and some really cool puzzles to the room. My only criticism is that they allow for too many people in the room, which means that you often get put with random people (unless you book out the entire room, which is pretty costly for the number of people allowed in this room). It felt like for the most part there were things for everyone to do, but occasionally with that many people it felt like a bit of standing around. Would be a great room with a lesser number of people. Super similar to the Rugrat’s room that they also have in other locations so I would not recommend doing both.

This rooooom, the most fun I ever had in an escape room. Go with a group of friends, it really makes you feel like a kid again. The set decoration is superb. The room wasn’t easy, you need eyes everywhere, make sure you don’t only have 2 people in your group.

Great room with an original theme. Lots of really fun and interesting puzzles. Like most Escape Game rooms, the production value is great. My main criticism is that it’s a 12 person room. There is a lot to do, but in our 12 person group there was lots of standing around. Would be a better experience capped at 8. Also, while private rooms are of course best, I don’t mind public rooms when it’s just two groups. But due to the theme and room limit, there were four groups in our room, making it tough to share information.

I proposed in this room. My girlfriend and I had done every other The Escape Game room in New York,( and two in DC), so I knew all their rooms are of the highest production value. Shout out to Alec for helping me organise before hand, and Justin for running our session on the day. We arranged for a “Will You Marry Me” sign to pop up with the final McGuffin. As for the game itself, it was excellent, although I was a little distracted and my partner ended up solving most of the puzzles. When the ending came, she was so obsessed with getting out of the room and stopping the clock that she ran right past the sign, and I had to drag her back in. She said yes, and the team was nice enough to give us a little extra prize to take home.

Very nice scenery. We did it with 3, which bumps up the difficulty (in a good way) a bit just because there are quite a lot of puzzles to do.

Fun game! Definitely go with a larger group. There were only 2 of us, so we weren’t able to finish. The puzzles aren’t hard, there is just A LOT of them to complete. The set and game pieces were a tad bit worn, but everything worked as expected.

Get ready to channel your inner child! This room was nostalgic and very fun with some delightful surprises.
