Nightmare at the MuseumPuzzleWorksEscape roomIRLSooo fun and spooky! Loved the creepy atmosphere, and the set design was incredibly impressive. The puzzles were very well intigrated into the atmosphere and storyline. If you love spooky vibes, haunts, and the metaphysical, you will love this room!!
UtopiaLock and Key EscapeEscape roomIRLWow, what an incredible experience! Such an interesting concept for an escape room; I've never seen anything quite like it before. So many different things happening between all of the sections. Would absolutely play this again.
The Light In The MistPostCuriousEscape roomTabletopThis was my first Post Curious tabletop experience, which then lead me to falling in love with the company and wanting more. Light in the Mist is very mystical-feeling as you play through and learn more about the story and its characters. The art is incredible, and the tarot element in solving the puzzles makes this escape box unlike anything I've ever played or 'escaped'. It's a lengthy journey, but endlessly fun. There's even a surprise, non-card puzzle near the end :) want to set the mood even more? When you sit down to play, I recommend some low lights, a candle or two, and an enchanted playlist to softly play in the background. It amps your playthrough up to a whole new level!
The Founder's SecretThe Lodge of Lazarus CroweEscape roomIRLThis room is incredible! Would recommend as maybe a second or third room to experience at Lazarus Crowe just based on gaining more lore knowledge, but would be ok if you wanted to dive in head first as well. You won't be disappointed with this one!
Ministry of Lost Things: Lint ConditionPostCuriousEscape roomTabletopThis is a darling experience! The story is cute, the puzzles have good variety to them, and the art is just plain adorable. This would be a great first experience from Post Curious if you haven't played one yet. Though it's a bit simpler in execution, it's an absolute joy to play. Be sure to send a postcard on your trip to the Sockies :)
The Emerald FlamePostCuriousEscape roomTabletopI absolutely loved this experience. We loved the unique use of components and the incredible art. There's some puzzles that do feel very alchemical when using what you're given, and it's VERY fun! Post Curious does not disappoint with any of their puzzletales. I'll for sure be ordering some refill kits to replay this eventually.
Witchcraft AlleyTrapped Puzzle Rooms - North LoopEscape roomIRLThis room is a blast! The entire experience as a whole was so, so fun. I'm not the biggest Harry Potter fan, but even if you aren't, you'll still have a great time with this room.
The HospitalPuzzleWorksEscape roomIRLPretty fun! Mostly linear, but that's not a bad thing. Leaves opportunity to be able to track everything easily and focus on the next part of the puzzle. This would be a great first room for people who are new to escape rooms.
The Arcane LibraryThe Lodge of Lazarus CroweEscape roomIRLLove this room! Between wandering the Lodge itself to find how to unlock the room, to the room itself, it's a very well-rounded and fun series of puzzles.
The InitiationThe Lodge of Lazarus CroweEscape roomIRLThe Initiation is a blast! It really lets you explore the lodge in ways you normally aren't able to with the other escape rooms. You can can go at your own pace, and even come back a different day if you need to to finish up your tracking card. You'll have a lot of fun taking in all the details of the lodge and get to immerse yourself in the world building Lazarus Crowe had built (and keeps building!). Plus, once you complete the experience, you're an official member of the Lazarus Lodge. Members get a discount on the other escape experiences!
