8-bit Escape

While acknowledging just how highly rated this room is amongst various escape room communities, we were so thrilled to try our luck in this space; overall, this room was fantastic! But, this wasn't our top-5 favorite for several reasons. First, despite technically being an 80s baby, many of the references just didn't stick. They were fun, novel, and we can totally appreciate that - but we simply didn't know what half of the stuff were lol. Second, I think those references carried into solving of specific puzzles. We did love and appreciate how diverse and tactile some of them were; but because we were caught up on not knowing what we were not knowing what to look/get/understand - it all just felt confusing. We'll admit (because we played 3 games that day), this was a rough day for us in-game, so we needed hints and struggled, but the props, accessories, and design was very fun. Kinda wish we got to see the bonus room...

Great theme, really funny idea behind it and plenty of video game nostalgia

Full of 80s nostalgia. Everything from wood paneling to cassette tapes. There are even games you can play that aren't part of the puzzles (labeled as such) that are just extra fun and classic memories.

I personally struggled with this room, however there was a lot of props that fit the theme great but had nothing to do with the gameplay. I felt like I wasted to much time on them. Overall the game was good.

Really well-made escape room with some great 80's references. You can tell that this room is a passion-project; the owner's love really shines through the experience. This room deserves all of the praise that it has.

Greta aesthetic, set design and consistency in puzzles to keep you immersed in the theme.

9.6/10 So good I played it twice. The amount of creativity and work to make the mechanics of this room feel like an 80s kids basement was amazing. Definitely lots of nostalgia, but also just some really cool gameplay. This is the room that was recommended to me to even come try out ERH and they’ve been my top location ever since.

Cool room. Probably would be better if I was older and more nostalgic for the old video games/music/toys featured in the room. Still had a blast w/ friends.

I really enjoyed the room and the nostalgia it brought along with it. It’s possible to solve a couple puzzles without finding the clues using only what you know going in. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, it does add to the nostalgia. The room was a bit hot, so it was uncomfortable as I was sweating quite a bit. But all in all….REALLY fun room.

As a nerd, I found this room to be very special. Most of the puzzles were very well themed and it helped the room keep that retro feel they were going for.
