Great atmosphere and puzzles. Felt a bit too linear but I understand the need the way the story was unfolding. It did mean though towards the middle and the end that sometimes we had 1-2 extra people with nothing to do (we were a group of 5). Clever mechanics, good storyline, and high quality puzzles. I’d definitely recommend it but I’m not sure if it’s on my list of favorites.

Room lived up to its great reputation! Having a small team also presented some challenges due to the unique gameplay and design. Overall, fun and great experience. Awesome reveals, props, and surprises; especially the ending. The hint system was also signature and authentic. Highly recommend!!

The room was good. I will say the coolest part of the room was the story. The puzzles were good and just the right amount of difficult for someone who is quite experienced. This room seems geared towards experienced enthusiasts so just keep that in mind. All in all, very fun!

Interesting design constraint with no traditional locks. I personally like having traditional locks in escape rooms but I understand why many people don't.

It is difficult for me to objectively evaluate how hard an escape room is. I thought it was medium. If you told me this room is difficult, I'd believe you. It's certainly not easy.

I believe they have a no children policy, or maybe it's just no children without adults. I'm not sure which.

9.6/10 This was a very innovative game with a very creative ending! Certainly not what I expected from this game. Good theming, puzzles, and good use of technology in a room themed in the distant past.

This was a great journey. Not all of the puzzles are clear about how you solve them - at least two boiled down to either “guess and check” or “I guess this as good a place to start as any.” Overall, though, definitely recommend.
