Down a nondescript corridor, past the old library and beyond the general store, you will find Madam Zita’s curiosities – a burial ground for her collection of wicked artifacts that time has long but forgotten. However, this seemingly ordinary bazaar holds a dark secret, one buried and covered up only to be discovered by the most cunning of individuals. Whispers of evil, maniacal treachery and occult idols await. Step back in time to the roaring 80s where you will discover the secret behind the Curse of Madam Zita’s Curiosities.

Very good room! Main issue is this is a 1 hour escape room length that you need to do in 45 mins. Puzzles were really well varied and interesting. The set was well decorated and loved the different things that would happen when you completed a task. 4 experienced players just managed to escape but we were only “stuck” on one puzzle, the rest we were pushing through quickly. Go during a quiet time so they have the time to let you finish if you dont get out in time!
Gameplay
Good flow but felt rushed due to the time limit.
Atmosphere
It was 360 decorated. Lots of props and tech used along with mechanical equipment
Customer service
Loved the GM super friendly and excited

It was a very good game! Just nothing that was a “woah” moment.
Story
The plot was clear and solid, but puzzles were removed from the plot.
Difficulty
Hard
This is a 1 hour room but you’re given 45 minutes. So the puzzles are more “medium” but to push through it all it becomes “hard”
Game tech
Mechanical
There were lots of sensors and props that would open up elsewhere in the room when you completed things

Like the other room here, this one checks off a lot of our boxes (good lighting, no crawling, etc.). Despite the exact same storyline as their other game, we liked the puzzles in this one much more. The flow was very good and the GM gave timely nudges. Our team of 2 needed 4 extra minutes to finish this game. And we were hustling. We never got hung up on any of the puzzles and we divided when we could. 45 minutes is just not enough time for two experienced players. We would like to see them do in-room team photos. Also, this Chinatown location is not the nicest area. You should be prepared for that.

Myself and my partner did this one and we had a good time! The puzzles weren’t too hard or crazy but had a nice flow that made the room feel really manageable. The only thing I would say is that having even a few more minutes (5-15) would have made this more doable. 45 minutes felt a bit too quick!

A room full of interesting curiosities to interact with and look at, and plenty of normal bright light. Jumbo sized props involve the whole group. Lots of quick puzzles means you are constantly feeling success and the pressure to keep moving. Most locks use keys with just a little tech. Puzzle flows very well due to clarifying stickers. 2 players better move fast, or come when they're not busy and hope you've been nice enough to be granted some bonus time.

I loved the theme and idea of this room. Everything flowed very well and I was impressed with how well everything worked. The puzzle design was brilliant and had a few things I hadn’t seen before! I played it solo and needed about 5 more minutes to finish the last couple puzzles but nevertheless left highly satisfied. Staff were wonderful!

Really enjoyed this game. It was basically a curiosity and oddities shop with lots of moments of mystery. The set was very creative and captured the essence of a curiosity shop well, and the puzzles were fun to do. We played as a team of 4, in which it was my wife and another stranger couple, and we were able to have a great time with the game.
