Boda Borg Quests [Interactive Arcade]

Boda Borg - Boston

This is pretty much an escape room crossed with an obstacle course, and it’s the best thing to exist. It’s the most replayable experience in the escape room world, and like nothing you’ve ever seen. There are more mysteries hidden inside this complex than anything else in the world. For the best experience, your team should be physical enough to climb, crawl, and jump. It’s an amazing experience that you need to book now, and there’s only one reason I’m keeping this review short. In Boda Borg, the less you know going into it, the better.

Absolutely mind blowing IF you know what you’re getting yourself into. This is NOT an escape room in the slightest. It’s an immersive, interactive art exhibition. There’s no puzzles to be solved, and while there technically is some “gameplay” you can take part in, none of that is the point. Just wandering around the place, taking everything in, and exploring is the main purpose of this place. It’s beautiful, it’s incredibly detailed down to the last inch, and it’s massive- I legitimately got lost multiple times throughout my visit. There’s tons of rooms, characters, and spaces, cavernous multi-level chambers, and more secret passages than Hogwarts. I cannot believe a place like this even exists and I absolutely cannot wait to go back.

If you go in with the right expectations, this is an incredibly well done, immersive adventure that really makes you feel like a secret agent. That being said, it is NOT difficult. The puzzles are not challenging to figure out, and if you want something puzzle focused, go somewhere else. 5 Wits tends to get a lot of negative feedback because people don’t understand that its primary goal is to provide an immersive experience rather than a real puzzly challenge to groups, and there is some challenge in here for sure, but you don’t go for the puzzles. 5 Wits may not have challenging gameplay, but if you want a masterclass in escape room storytelling and immersion, check them out. Their theming is incredible and there is actual plot, something you rarely see in escape rooms these days. There’s something really special here.
