    303 Escape - Denver Escape Room

    Really unique room from others we have done. Liked the spooky vibe of it. Some really unique puzzles had us thinking more than usual. Overlooked some clues due to habits. Will be ready for next room (sequel)! Great fun.

    We thought this room was a lot of fun. There was one puzzle set that had us hung up a bit, but we eventually got it. Fun different theme with great GM.

    Fun themed room, with one seemingly obvious clue we simply overlooked until GM helped us out. One puzzle was a bit delicate to work with and could be better built. Final room was rough crawling into a gravel floored room (OUCH!)

    Not an escape room, more of an immersive experience. I've been to the Omega Mart Meow Wolf in Las Vegas and found that experience much more immersive and fun though. There is a background story to this one, but it was hard to hear over speakers, difficult to follow as a result, and an employee told us later that we could have scanned our book card at a single station numerous times and still would have finished the whole immersive experience, which is kinda sad. We enjoyed the visual design and art experiences, but it lacked the deeper magic we were hoping for.

    Located in a strip mall style office complex, we weren't sure what to expect, but the experience was a lot of fun. Two elements of this room felt like they would have been impossible for us to intuitively figure out without clues, but maybe you'll do better. Fun experience that played on Warehouse 13 tv show theme.

    First room we did at Mystic and LOVED IT! Indiana Jones style theme. Nice room(s) design, clever puzzles and mechanisms. Amazing they fit three escape rooms in this little building!

    My wife and daughter went with me to this escape room and we had a great time. The GM mentioned before the game that once you get the Pink Panther Diamond, you need to make sure you LEAVE the room. Apparently, a lot of people finish and stay in the room with the clock still running. I may have gotten too carried away as I grabbed the diamond and ran out of the room leaving my wife and daughter behind!

    A pretty straightforward flow through this AREA 51 themed game, but fun all the same. Nothing too challenging, but you need to make sure you are observant. We missed a simple clue for 5 minutes. Got discount on Groupon.

    We enjoyed ourselves. Wasn't bad but wasn't great either. Got a discount on Groupon. GM had an over the top acted intro to the game, but unlike other reviews left us to our own unless we requested help.

    One small dark room that had a collection of lockboxes and some puzzles that were quite hard to figure out. Instead of getting GM help, you had to use an app on your phone for clues which took away from the gameplay vibe. Room had a creepy vibe but wasn't necessarily scary, unless dolls creep you out.
