This was a good room. It’s the one I’d most recommend here but all of them are good. There were some puzzles that were challenging to the point where I was getting frustrated. But once I knew the solution, I’d realize that the puzzle was just smarter than me. Other parts of The Reel were really fun to solve without being too easy. I remember one element involving math that was tough once our brains were fried.
Gameplay
I really enjoyed the progression of this one. Just the right level of challenge.
Atmosphere
It was well made but I wouldn’t call it immersive. However this is the best set design at Puzzle Effect SLO. Really good stuff.
Customer service
Everyone at puzzle effect has always been great.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
There were a lot of puzzles that I’ve seen elsewhere, but there were a couple things unique to The Reel.

Accessibility
There were some color elements and an audio element. That’s from memory and I could be wrong about that.

Yes
Parking
Medium
This is a SLO issue. There’s metered parking right out front, but to park for free you have to walk a few blocks.
