Thoroughly enjoyed this game. The visuals/decor, unique puzzles, and immersive environment made me feel like Indiana Jones. Definitely one of my favorites at The Escape Game.

Surprised to hear that this was the 2nd hardest room in this location. It was easiest out of the 4 for us. They even threw in something extra in the end b/c we finished earlier than expected.

Overall, it was a decent room. We just unfortunately had a really bad experience with the game master and set up of the room. I wish the game master let us know before beginning the game that it was her first time being a game master and that she may struggle to respond because she was also overseeing two rooms. We had to wait over 15 minutes for our first hint (it was frustrating not knowing how to receive her attention nor when we’ll receive it), only to receive hints that we already solved… She also placed some of the items in the wrong places that only appeared later in the game, so we were stuck aimlessly wandering for another roughly 15 minutes… If she knew the set-up, she could have easily intervened and corrected herself. Thankfully, JayJay, the other game master who was handling Campground at the time, stepped in from there and was able to help us. Poor guy was essentially overseeing three rooms… Just again, poor communication. A lot of my frustrations could have been alleviated if the situation was let known from the beginning. Also, knowing that they could give us more minutes for the lost times could have also helped.. Some criticisms for the actual game would be a wear-and-tear in lights, a box malfunction, and a red herring.

Decorations were amazing, but the puzzles were disorienting. Booby traps were cute and thoughtful ;) Giving it a thumbs up to show love for the decorations, but they may need to refigure the puzzles. This was my least favorite of the rooms. *Warning* There were some red herrings.

This room felt most worthwhile out of the three, but still too short. Wish each of these mini series were longer. 35 minutes feels way too short.

Fairfield Escape Room

Escape room

Couldn’t finish the first time; we were told we completed about 70%. Went back and paid full price for the second time, and it turned out we finished a lot more the first time and only had 2.5 puzzles left (which only took about 5 minutes)… We were in the middle of solving the third to last before… Really annoyed about that (we paid $90 each for something that could have easily been explained or extended another couple of minutes for)… But it was a good game… Fairfield Escape Room is extremely stingy and strict (no water bottles or any kind of drink, no mobile lights, no notepads, no discounts for second tries or for same day/next game just because they “only” opened 1.5 years ago). However, their games and decors are decent. Giving it a thumbs up for the bad customer service.

Slaughter Landing

Brighton Asylum

Escape room

Thoroughly enjoyed this room. It was well decorated and consistent with the theme of a pier and sea dangers. There were some new visuals and puzzles we haven’t come across before. The only complaint I have is that the game master was slow to answer us. They were slow to answer for Mystical Manor, too, even though we both had our hands up and were calling out for the hint multiple times… It was also a bit hot in there. Thankfully, there was at least a fan to cool off once in a while.

The Dungeon

Besides being blindfolded and chained (what drew us to the game in the first place) in the beginning being a new experience, the whole experience was fairly new. Definitely need at least 4 people for this one, especially for the beginning. **Warning** Still just as hot as most of the Hayden rooms (besides the room, “John Hayden” — that one has air conditioning!). Another downer was that there were several mechanical errors that forced the game master to repeatedly revisit the room, which interfered with my experience of The Dungeon. It might have been one of my least favorite of the Hayden rooms because of it… There were too many messy elements.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one! It’s described as the worst Hayden room since it’s more “mechanical,” but there were also tech elements and unique puzzles that made it enjoyable. P.S. There’s AC in this room!!! Whoop whoop 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Part of the top three Hayden rooms for me! Grand Parlor and Cookhouse are the other two I’ve enjoyed; each has its own charm.

Such a fun room. It definitely helps having more people because there’s so much to do, and each person picks up on different puzzles… This room could use a little refurbishing, but nonetheless still enjoyable. All the Hayden rooms need air conditioning… Be prepared for the heat in the summer. Heard it gets extremely cold in the winter.

This flowed better for us than Dr. Jones’ Study. Nothing too crazy (mostly mechanical and the set design is plain), but the puzzles were still enjoyable. Definitely not one of the worst rooms we’ve been to.
