Escape room

Stranger Than Things

Kind of a weird experience to be honest. One of the most expensive rooms I’ve been in. The gentlemen that explained the rules didn’t really seem like he knew the speech, spent a couple minutes going over safety rules, and then the whole story was like “Will is missing!! …you’re not looking for him or figuring out who took him or anything though… you’re just sort of solving puzzles…”.

We were told to wave our hands at the camera to get a clue, on our first clue we waited for a few minutes and finally walked out of the room to find them and they were all standing around the front desk…

The game is very linear, which isn’t really my favorite type, you have to solve one clue at a time, you can’t really work independently within your team. 

They ruined the surprise of there being a second room by telling us it was there before we even got started, and then once we got into the second room, they paused the game to come in and tell us to make sure not to close the door or we would have been locked in there. 

Then at the end they started just giving us clues we weren’t even asking for. I assume because nothing was really in order and we might not have figured out which clue applied to which item without the help? I think we still had about 17 minutes left when we finished, so it didn’t feel like they were helping us for the sake of time. 

When we finished, a voice just something like “you’ve escaped!” And then we just waited there for a minute and then left. They never came in afterwards or came to get us, and I don’t know if they don’t do pictures or just didn’t offer, but we didn’t get a picture and that sort of feels like part of the experience. 

There wasn’t really any clear connection to stranger things, it was just the experience that was strange mostly…
