    Brain Games Escape Room

    Easy 5/5 room (ck out my bio for rating system). This was, by far, my favorite escape room I've done to date. Each category I rank on got more than 1 point in this surprise filled room. From the fantastic and intricately designed set along with it's charming theme to all the IYKYN additions (we hear you Christopher Walken), it did not disappoint in the least. There were quite a few novel puzzles and they were pretty intuitive so hints were never needed but the GM knew when to give a gentle nudge. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to doing more of their rooms.

    This was our first experience in a room with a live actor. I didn't like it enough to want to do this type of room more than those without a live actor, but I would probably do it again at some point. That being said, the actor was amazing! Despite my 15 year old daughter constantly talking to him like he was her best girlfriend, he remained in character the whole time! A very impressive feat! The room was pretty multi-dimensional for really just being one room. The live actor guided us through each part which was helpful because he was able to gauge when we needed little or extra assistance in our escape. It did have some pretty gory props for those thinking of bringing littles with them. It flowed well and had a pretty linear plotline. A few unexpected customizations to our group as well. There's no timer which was probably appropriate for the room, just not my preference. Overall, would easily recommend.

    Another great and well thought out escape room by the Locked Inn. So much to see. Wonderfully themed but definitely more appreciated by those who were lucky enough to be part of the 1980s. Our teenage daughters were annoyed at how excited we were about all the throwbacks. The puzzles were unique and many were specific to the 80s theme. The doors that open and close to new rooms are never where you expect! Once again, a great hostess in Ariel. This place is so memorable!

    The set was amazing! I was transported back to my high school years in the teenage son's room! 😆 It's a linear room with very few locks which can actually be quite intimidating since you're not quite sure what you're looking for. Figuring out some of the clues are pretty time consuming. Specifically, you get the general idea but implementing the practice takes some time. Time suckers! But overall, great theme, set design and surprise ending!

    I rate this room a 4/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). The room got points for set and theme design which was totally immersive and realistic! The live actor was quite believable and added to the room in a positive way. I feel bad I didn't keep my pinky promise I made with her! 🤦‍♀️ There were some surprise elements and novel puzzles and I experienced more enjoyment than frustration while doing it. The reason it didn't get a perfect 5 was because there was some frustration - something was put in a wrong way but there was no indication it was wrong because it fit - and the dreadful 'hint system' if you'd even call it that. First they tell you there's no hints, then a lady starts shouting thru the wall trying to give you a hint. It just didn't match the quality of the room set. If you're not going to give hints, commit to that, don't do it the ghetto way. Even though I liked the escape experience overall, I didn't like their other room, The Elevator Shaft, and because of the hint system, or lack thereof, I won't be experiencing the rest of the rooms at this location.

    Definitely a favorite room for this escape room couple. One 'time sucker' puzzle which deducts points for me in an escape room but the rest of it made up for that part. The theme and implementation of it was on pointe! The character in the room provided just enough guidance. Lots of details were added to make you feel truly immersed in the story. Thoroughly enjoyed!

    I easily rate this room a 5/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). First off, best GM ever! Alex was welcoming, friendly and very enthusiastic about the rooms which made us all the more excited to begin. But not before we discovered a treasure in the bathroom! And in the lobby! Great warm-up for our room. The set and theme were wonderfully executed. The 'wow' moments were plenty. Solid puzzles including a couple we hadn't seen before. I enjoyed every minute of this room, so much so that we begged for a second one after we were done!

    One of the most well decorated and detailed rooms I've ever experienced. These are the kinda rooms you wish didn't have a time limit because you just want to enjoy the visual wonders they offer. There were so many puzzles I hadn't experienced before as well. The feeling of going down a rabbit hole is a way to describe it as you encountered the multiple different rooms and puzzles in the escape experience. It was truly a unique wonderland of puzzles. The hostess, Ariel, was friendly, fun and encouraging. The puzzles were mostly medium in difficulty. There were quite a few items in the room that did nothing for you which is designed to throw you off I guess - never my favorite but I get why they do that. The very last puzzle didn't work well so just be gentle with it. In addition, I didn't fully grasp our objective. I guess it was to save wonderland, but it wasn't very clear what we were saving it from. Also, it seems they are there only when there is a reservation so might not be available if you're just trying to walk in. All that being said, I loved the experience and would highly recommend it.

    The best escape room by far! I'm a newbie in escape rooms but this one has so much variety in figuring out the puzzles. Oftentimes you were rewarded with a cool high tech effect when figuring out a clue. It's obvious that a lot of time, thought and energy went into this room. I look forward to their next room!!

    The rooms at this establishment just seem to get better and better. They are so creative, detailed, thoughtful, surprising... I could go on and on! I can't tell you how many times we gasped in surprise at all of the uniquely revealed clues. I love the storyline - even though it portrayed the pumpkin king a little on the meaner side (in 'The Nightmare before Christmas', he was not meant to be mean, just misunderstood 😉). I felt truly immersed in the experience and there is an exciting ending to conclude the story if 'one' chooses wisely and can keep a secret. The game hosts are very helpful and friendly. They do require 4 players perhaps because there is a lot to uncover but I think we could have done it with just 2. Either way, it's an incredibly fun room that holds many unique experiences as do each of their other rooms. I can't wait for their next escape room to come out!
