The Sins of Doctor FaustusCaptivating WorldsEscape roomIRLHad a group of 4 experienced players take on this room. Mostly positive experience: PROS: 75 minute room. Who doesn’t like more time which equates to more to do. The room decor is fantastic and top notch. Most the puzzles are challenging but not terrible. Plenty to do to keep our group of 4 active the whole time. CONS: it took us a little bit to get going. Early on, we needed to find some info in a book and it took us a LONG time to gather the needed info and while 2 of us worked the book, we had no idea what the other two were doing (this left us a bit underwhelmed right out of the gate). The sounds/vocals were hard to hear and we wondered if we missed any important info. For us, the ending was a bit dramatic and dare I say silly. I think the owners put a lot of thought and detail into their story-lines…but sometimes less is more.
Welcome to the MachineCaptivating WorldsEscape roomIRLGreat fun in this our 4th and final room at Captivating Worlds. We agree with most of the other reviews that this was a room with plenty to do, and though it is intended to start slow, by the end, you will be ramped and amped up. Our experienced group of 4 did get out, but with only a minute to spare, and we did need a could hints along the way. I would not recommend this room for beginners as we really needed to use our past experiences to help navigate this adventure. My ranking of the four room: 1.Welcome to the Machine (best overall experience) 2. Sins of Dr Faustus-75 minutes and very dramatic. 3. Deep Underground-most immersive rooms 4. Barnyard Winds-great room for beginners
Yacht HeistTotal EscapeEscape roomIRLWe have done 40+ rooms and this on is in the top 10 (some in my family would say top 5). Very good theme. Game flow was logical and fun. Challenges were a good mix of tech and mechanical. We had to think our way thru several challenges as we did ask for a couple hints but not too many. The yacht/boating theme was great! This was a ton of fun. Delaney was fantastic as our game master. Just happened on this place traveling from Myrtle Beach to Ohio. Hope to be in their neighborhood again to do another room!
Queen Anne's RevengeEpic EscapesEscape roomIRLPirate ship themed room and very well done. This was our first experience at Epic Escapes. The room had plenty of challenges and a very good variety of challenges which we appreciated. Plenty to keep our group of 5 engaged. It’s a very thoughtful room and you won’t be disappointed.
Trapped in the 80sEscape Rooms by FranknickyEscape roomIRLGREAT ROOM!!!! It took us 58 minutes to work the room and escape, and then another two hours discussing all that we did. Soooo many fun and creative activities. They were very logical and lead us perfectly to the conclusion with just a couple minutes to do. This is simply one of the best rooms out there, period!!!!!!!!!!!
Prison BreakThe Escape Game - ColumbusEscape roomIRLVery good room. We have done all the other rooms at this location and this one, splitting your group into two cells to start the experience, is very unique. Communications is important. We were split up for over 20 minutes to start the experience but it was very cool. We liked the room but for the most part, Playground was the consensus favorite room we have done there among my group.
Cows in SpaceTeam Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLExperienced the Cows in Space room with an experienced group of 5. The room is extremely well done and thought out. Plenty of challenges in this 75 minutes room. We really liked it. Lots of thought went into the story line, theme and design/execution of the challenges around a cow theme. Some are exceptionally clever. This is our second room at Team Escape (Temple was our first). I enjoyed this room more than Temple but most of my team gives Temple a slight edge. The theme is lighthearted, but the nature of the challenges and the volume of the challenges makes this a fairly hard room. We needed the extra 15 minutes to complete this and barely escaped in time. 👍🏼
Gold RushThe Escape Game - ColumbusEscape roomIRLVery immersive room and setting. Three distinct areas to navigate. The room flow is fairly linear and not too tough for our experienced group of 6. I do think this would be a great experience for beginners. This place is pretty focused on excellent customer service and they lived up to that in this room as well. 👍🏼
Nightmare in PinkTeam Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThe reviews are spot on. We have done over 50 rooms and this is one of the very best we have experienced. Challenging but not impossible. The flow is good, the atmosphere is great, and there were plenty of tasks to keep our experienced group of 5 busy. This room is not for beginners. They have a couple other rooms better suited for those with limited experience. I would suggest a minimum of 10 escapes rooms under your belt before doing this room. Team Escape is a wonderful facility overall and we would highly recommend all 5 of their hour+ game experiences.
Cows In Space 2: Time WarpTeam Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLWe had played all the other games at Team Escape and were just waiting on Cows in Space 2 to be completed. All their other rooms lived up to the hype…and Cows in Space 2 does as well!!!! Multi-Room adventure takes you through various decades as you are trying to restore “time”. Each room is fantastic. Most in our group enjoyed the 50’s theme room. Great variety of puzzles and themes and things to do. Our group of 5 were split on if we liked this room more or less than the original Cows in Space…3-2 voted they liked this one a little more. All their other rooms here are well done.
