    Strange Bird Immersive

    I came to love escape rooms through immersive theater. Iโ€™ve travelled to London and Portugal just to see immersive theater shows. This room was a highlight of all of my experiences with immersive theater and the best escape room I have ever done. The place making from the moment you walk in, from the signage, the scents, the quirks of the lobby let you know this is something special. Once the experience begins, you feel wholly a part of a world that both feels surreal and believable at the same time. Strange Bird was kind enough to create a custom booking for us on a Monday afternoon and Madam Daphne was a joy to meet. The entire experience felt like a dream, the perfect amount of puzzles that made thematic sense and evoked the magic of Harry Houdini himself. I cannot recommend this room more, the emotion, care, precision and creativity poured into this experience elevated it beyond a perfectly executed escape room and into an immersive experience that I truly felt a part of from start to finish.

    We were fortunate to do this room, along with their newly reopened Madam LeClareโ€™s Seance room during our trip to Osaka. We werenโ€™t sure what to expect but we were blown away by both rooms! This room contained the stronger puzzles and had more of a traditional โ€œescape roomโ€ feel than their Seance room but both rooms were incredible and worth going out of your way to do if youโ€™re traveling in Japan. The tactility, creativity and narrative focus in this room was so satisfying and contained plenty of โ€œwowโ€ moments that I have never seen in any other room. We never thought we would be comparing an escape room in Japan to rooms like Man from Beyond and Servants of Sleight but here we are! The humor, physicality and plot of this room elevate it into the top tier of rooms Iโ€™ve ever done. The GMs work really hard in this game and the care they take shows. We met one of the designers and they took the time to show us a little bit of how both rooms work and were so kind. We will make it a point to visit their rooms again on our next trip to Japan, whenever that may be!

    This is our second room at PuzzleConnect. After finding them on Morty driving from NYC back to Philly, they have become a must visit location for us. This room was densely packed full of puzzles and an absolute blast to play! The thoughtfulness that the designers put into this game from the lighting, the sound design, to set decorating was the real highlight for me. The logic that PuzzleConnect shows in their designs is truly a stand out. Conveying the โ€œwhyโ€ behind a solution without hand holding or overt written clues is an art, one mastered in the two rooms we have played here. From the onboarding to the conclusion, theme and theatrics radiate from this game. So many moments made us smile, pause, and laugh. The solutions to the puzzles felt gratifying and the room flowed incredibly well. It was very manageable for two experienced players to finish without feeling the crunch of the clock but felt like a very full, rewarding experience. JQ who ran our game was incredibly kind and offered us a hint at an appropriate time and listened to us when we asked to be sparing with unsolicited help. We met one of the owners, Christina, at our first game and met the other owner, Frank at this game and both were so welcoming and wanted to chat about escape rooms and design. If you have kids, their Candy Shoppe room is an absolute must play, but if youโ€™re a group of adults, I think this is a canโ€™t miss room if youโ€™re anywhere near central Jersey!

    This room was so much fun, a must play for families and anyone new to escape rooms! This room is in wonderful condition and has an emphasis on tech that works flawlessly. The theme and sets were pristine and so much fun to progress through. This room was not particularly difficult but had puzzles of various difficulty for people of all ages and experience levels to keep anyone engaged. The room was very thoughtfully built for kids, with steps to ensure kids can reach all of the puzzles. Christina and Jack were wonderful gamemasters and took the time to speak with us after our game. We cannot wait to come back for their third room when it opens!

    This room is really special! We really enjoyed this room and our GM Lauren did an incredible job facilitating our game. This is a pretty challenging room that would be best served with four players who communicate well together. The puzzles were plentiful and had a depth/challenge that exceeded most rooms. The room was immersive, clever and incredibly challenging. There were a few things I would improve, the main being providing a board for note taking, they told us we could use our phone to help with notes and always prefer an in game instrument to help with it instead, especially in this game, there are some puzzles that require a lot of note taking. Overall, the logic of this room made it stand out, it flowed really well and we really enjoyed ourselves. Bring strong players with you and you will make it out! We also suggested making it a 75 minute room, an extra 15 minutes would benefit most teams! We canโ€™t wait to try more games at Escapopolis!
