CarnivorousContainaphobiaEscape roomIRLIt’s not often that your expectations are sky high but an experience still blows your mind. Carnivorous is such an experience. Unimaginable in scale, immersion, dread, and sheer terror — this is a masterpiece in every way, designed and built with an awe-inspiring amount of thought, passion, and attention to detail. Beyond the aesthetics and atmosphere, it is also packed with a crazy number of novel, thematic, practical, and super challenging puzzles, some of which are simply genius. While I believe I will one day play an escape room somewhere in the world I consider better than Carnivorous, I’m not sure I’ll ever have a more unforgettable experience.
