A good but dangerous room set in a post-aplocalyptic Fallout/The Last of Us themed universe. How would you rate a good room in which your partner gets injured due to a faulty mechanism? Towards the end, you plant a "bomb" that is supposed to "detonate" after a few seconds, except it fired instantly in our case and the contraption slammed down on Ana's finger which was still on the bomb. It was extremely painful, the kind of post-apocalyptic immersion we just didn't ask for, and it is still felt almost 2 months later. Fortunately, there was no fracture, and the business, after some time, refunded us the cost of the x-ray if nothing else. If you play this room, please be careful when placing the bomb. Remove your hands immediately after placing it. Now a spoiler alert for the room review itself: it is good, a massive space with lots of puzzles. The environment is beautiful, filled with scraps of ordinary pre-apocalyptic objects repurposed for a more treacherous age. This fits remarkably well with the escape room paradigm (for example, it feels realistic you would protect a door with a code on a vending machine because you would use what hardware's available). It's also a room that feels very physical. There are 4(!!!) different ladders you have to climb not counting a small tunnel you have to lower yourself into and out of at some point. There are also lots of tools that you get to use: a suction cup to remove a window, a sledgehammer to smash a different window, a hair dryer to push golfballs through a tube, a creeper to squeeze into a crawlspace. A problem with this escape room also present in the other Unreal room we did (Maravillas de Agrabah) is that they do a bad job of communicating intermediate goals. There is a point where you have to wire the car's exhaust to a phone booth which chokes a guard to death, but we didn't even know there was a guard in there much less that we were supposed to get rid of him. Players should be aware of what they are trying to accomplish at all times! More immersion-building of that nature and less of the bombs-exploding-in-your-hands nature please!

Definitely the best room at ClueQuest and, arguably, the one where the story is the least superfluous. This is the last room I played at CQ and the first time I understood that mr. Q is actually a mouse, because, for once, it is relevant. The gist is that you go through a shrink ray to reach mr. Q's office. So the room is beautifully decorated with all manners of over-sized toys, gadgets and tools. Compared to their other rooms, it relies much less on keeping track of which codes you haven't found, which locks you haven't opened etc. In fact, it only has one lock and key puzzle, where the lock and key are appropriately sized, hehe. It actually flows good for two players because it is quite linear, and doesn't stretch your attention span quite as much as the other rooms. It is advertised as harder, but we actually performed better on it in terms of hints needed, compared to say, Revenge of the Sheep.

Absolutely beautiful escape room made by people with a lot of love for the genre. The setting is incredibly immersive, looking like a real ancient Egyptian tomb. And the GM told us that the attention to detail was impeccable: the hieroglyphs are genuine, the paintings on the wall follow the myth of Egyptian death, hieroglyphs are carved with low relief and figures with high relief etc. Even the duration of the escape room (93 minutes) is not randomly chosen. The room is the largest in Romania currently and it took 3 years to complete. Despite this, the business does not charge more than the normal escape room rate in Bucharest. The room is shaped like a long corridor that opens up gradually towards the tomb as you solve more and more puzzles. The puzzles are great and are very heavy on actual thinking and pattern matching rather than observation. There is also a timed section where you have to move fast across the temple (or have many people around different spots if you have a bigger group) which is exciting and really gives that Tomb Raider feeling. The game also features a very novel hint system: the first room has scrolls with the solution for each puzzle that players can access at will, so their progression does not depend on the GM. It's up to the players how much time they want to spend with each puzzle. More escape rooms should employ this! We ended up using only 3 hints. We used up ~50 minutes with the first 3 puzzles because observation puzzles keep stumping us 😤, but we were very good at all the others and managed to finish within ~103 minutes. You also get to keep a souvenir at the end, so it's perfect for players like us who love having keepsakes from their adventures! Thanks Edi for being a great host! :)

We escaped a German POW camp with a little help from our GM and another escapee's notebook! The puzzles were inventive enough but were all quite standard riffs on how to find a combination for the next lock. The barracks was quite straightforward. From there, the many threads in the officer's quarters felt quite overwhelming at first and seemed to indicate that the room was better suited for more than 2 players, but we did surprisingly well! We only needed the GM's help around three times, and we escaped in true action movie fashion with 5 seconds to spare. By far, the highlight of the room were the ambient noises of German soldiers shouting in the distance and the violent rattling of the door behind us as the timer dropped below two minutes and we were scrambling for the final puzzle! Escape Plan has two other rooms that we plan to do the next time we're in London, but with both marked harder than this one, and this one having been a close call, we may need more soldiers! 🪖
