Wednesday: Eve of the OutcastsNetflix House - PhiladelphiaEscape roomOther This is a beautiful, well built place. There is no denying that. The rest of the experience is a little lacking for the price. Many of the “games” are broken, acting up, or working fine but eat your very limited tokens. We are glad we did the phone scavenger hunt or else we would have not seen several hidden section of the space so maybe that is a plus. Being with a bunch of strangers and packed into a small space at the beginning was a little uncomfortable and not well listed online. Going into the other experience we had a better idea of what to expect.
One Piece: Quest for the Devil FruitNetflix House - PhiladelphiaEscape roomOther My friends wanted to like this more than Wednesday but it was just fine. Very cool lights and sounds but gameplay was repetitive at multiple steps. The ending was very big and had us running but the mech seemed broken until we fiddled with it. Our group of 6 was packed in with 6 others so 4 separate groups all working together. It did function well and forced communication but I would have rather played with just our group. I know many years ago escape rooms were public but everyone we have played is just our own group except for the escape game in the mall where we were joined for 1 game. The staff seemed to be starting groups every so often so maybe they are speeding up the process from 30 minutes between games. More escape room like than Wednesday but still not really puzzles. Netflix could better.
