Ghost Light
Myss Tic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
It’s a great game in a great neighborhood. Unlike other corporate run escape rooms, time and care has been put into making Ghost Light thematic and novel. With hundreds of escape rooms, it’s hard to differentiate; but without spoilers, Ghost Light found several way that are truly one of a kind. Only a handful of traditional locks, lots of tech, and VERY attentive GMs
Room 303 - Chapter 1

Man was this one fun! Creative puzzles, spoooookkkyyy vibes, and a logical progression. The best part is the game starts the second you walk in. That is to say, you’re not solving puzzles during check in, but you’re immersing yourself from the get go. Haven’t tried chapter 2 yet but this one was so good, I’ve got to give it a go!

Oh man. This is something special. First off, the GM is the creator of the rooms and it’s clear that this is his baby. The puzzles are mildly physical, super interactive, and just plain fun. This won’t have the absolute most complex puzzles or microscopically detailed theming, but I promise you, this will be the most fun escape room you’ll ever do.

I’ve only done a dozen or so escape rooms but Houdini places second to last. To begin, our host was a very, very nice man who came across way too strong. He essentially yelled the rules at us and made us all very uncomfortable. This was his way of being fun and energetic but it was just off putting. Then we get into the room and it’s a bunch of master locks. That’s fine for 2015 but there’s so many great rooms out there, paying $50 a head to do master locks is not great. In addition, this room is Houdini themed, in the sense that there’s four clues that are vaguely magic related. In my opinion, these are puzzles that have a magic paint scheme, rather than magic puzzles. Even then, there were a few puzzles I thought were fun and well designed, but even more that were busy work or frustratingly misleading. Now the good stuff: our host didn’t mean to be rude, he meant to be fun but there’s just a communication issue. The lobby is lovely and was an excellent place to wait for the game to start. If I was going to get yelled the rules, that couch was a great, comfortable spot to do it. You can book a private experience! $50 a head wouldn’t be bad, if the game was more interesting.

Clever puzzles and pretty good theming made this an entertaining experience. The first half was truly special but the second half fell off and felt less subway themed and more… generic find the pattern. Still, one of the best rooms in the city!

I feel like I can copy and paste my reviews from previous speakeasy/bar escape rooms. You enter the speakeasy, you mix the drinks, you exit feeling mostly satisfied. You won’t remember this room in a month but it passes enough bars. There’s few master locks, the puzzles make enough sense, the place is well kept. Frankly the most I remember is the lobby is really nice- if that’s a good or bad thing, you decide.

Perfectly cromulent. Of the 10 western themed escape rooms, this is one of them
The Speakeasy
EscapeWorks Denver - Convention Center
Escape room

Let’s start positive, the rooms clean, modern, and intentional. The puzzles, while not memorable or mindblowing, are fun enough. The staff was top notch. Now that that’s out of the way, oh no, not another speakeasy. You know the deal, find the recipe, mix the drink, do the thing. A solid, if a little forgettable escape room
The Dark Room
Room 5280
Escape room
IRL
Super fun game! Really spooky vibes. I’ve done a few that try to get eerie and this is the only one I’ve done so far where I was genuinely creeped out. There’s a few puzzles I didn’t love, but I’m willing to overlook that for the great vibes. If you’re going to do this one, I’d temper your expectations. If you think you’re going to get a Rabbit Hole Recreations level of gameplay, you’re not. If you’re looking for a good, spoooooky way to burn an hour, this is your game.

It’s just so bad. The theming. The puzzles. Did I mention the theming? Instantly depressing and ultimately unsatisfying
