Box One By Neil Patrick HarrisTheory11 OnlineEscape roomTabletopAbsolutely recommended if you can get your hands on it for a reasonable price. The game is completely resettable, and you can play with more than one person if you want but it's best single playier.
Where Dark Things Dwell [Outdoor]Secret City Adventures- Black Creek Pioneer VillageEscape roomIRLOverall this is a mixed experience. The puzzles are a mixed bag, some are better than others. The biggest disappointment is that the puzzles don't have you do anything in the historic buildings. You just go in grab the puzzle which is placed out in the open and move on. Most of the building is roped off and off limits, so it's not like an escape room in that way. Still not bad for the price when you factor in promo codes. We went when the sun was out, but the atmosphere is probably much better when it's dark out.
Cabin 13Escape Manor - TorontoEscape roomIRLThis was a fun experience and I'd recommend it as an experience moreso than an escape room. The puzzle solving experience isn't much better than most escape rooms, but the atmosphere and live acting are what sets of apart from most.
Wine CellarEscape Manor - TorontoEscape roomIRLPossibly the best escape room I've ever done. There was a puzzle that was pre-solved for us which was annoying but other than that the puzzles were very creative and fun. We did the hard mode which wasn't too difficult. Highly recommended.
Kilgore CabinCrypto Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis was an okay experience, the puzzles and experience is more inspired than the a standard haunted room, but not different enough to be memorable. The experience was a bit too linear and the puzzles were a bit too straightforward. 6/10
The Leopold Trilogy: Episode 2 - White Sleep50 CluesEscape roomTabletopThis series is definitely not for everyone. You play as a child abuser which is intentionally disturbing. I'm not saying they are promoting it by any means, but if you can get passed that the puzzles are interesting. However they're not like typical puzzles where you don't need any special knowledge or skills (e.g. mathematical unit conversion). The hints aren't too helpful for this either, but will show you how to get the solution while also showing you the solution, instead of just giving you the information to figure it out yourself.
EXIT: The Game - Prison BreakThames & KosmosEscape roomTabletopA fun twist on the exit formula. Most of the puzzles are excellent and work with the well executed theme.

EXIT: The Game - Kidnapped in Fortune CityThames & KosmosEscape roomTabletopOne of my favourites in the city. It's far less linear than the typical exit games and makes it feel like an entirely different experience. Great puzzles that match the theme.
The AsylumEscape Manor - TorontoEscape roomIRLThis is the scariest room after cabin 13, it's a fun atmosphere, pretty classic by escape room standards. I would recommend starting with the better reviewed rooms over this one but if you enjoy the location (food, games, service, etc.) it's worth coming back for. Some negatives: It's on the easier and shorter side The mechanics aren't particularly unique, and some of the components were not in good condition and should be replaced
