@Marssbarr's reviews on Morty

A Pirate's Curse

Escapology - Waterloo

Escape room
IRL

This room felt like it had all the things I like most about an escape room. The flow from puzzle to puzzle was really clear, the challenge was just right, I was able to be really collaborative with my friend (some rooms have you working super separately) on all the puzzles. The puzzles blended so well with the theming of the room too! The very last puzzle was a liiittle finicky when it didn’t work even when we had put the items in the correct places, but the GM gave us some time back to compensate. Overall I loved this room and the experience overall :)

I’ve been anticipating getting to do this room for many years! The owner (I forget his name 🙁, but he’s an ex Disney imagineer!) was kind enough to take my friend and I through the bare bones when he was building Atlantis, which was SO special, especially for my friend who had been a natural engineer since adolescence. He loved escape rooms, he had helped design and build many at his first job, and he ended up working for the hacksmith on YouTube, so again, getting to see the build of this room was so special to him. He was so excited to do this room when it came out. He tragically passed a year ago, so finally getting to do this room with another friend of mine was bittersweet, but I still believe he tagged along with us for the fun. ❤️

So, I think my review will likely be an outlier, which I’m feeling bad about, but I felt very scattered in this room only having done it with 1 other person. I was confused with what I was supposed to be doing through a lot of it because there was SO much to engage with which kind of took me out of the story. It was combo lock after combo lock after completing another small puzzle, and I usually don’t mind that but things just didn’t feel like they flowed to me. It’s just not my preference I guess. Also, my friend and I hardly spoke through the whole thing because we had to separate and work on each half of the story on our own. Part of me wishes Morty had a neutral rating option because I don’t think it truly deserves a thumbs down, but I definitely didn’t walk out feeling like I’d enjoyed that room the way I’d hoped I would. But, to each their own! Other people seem to like it! 🤷‍♀️

This was a super fun last minute booking for us! This room was the perfect balance of simple yet clever puzzles and more complicated ones that weren’t ever difficult enough to waste precious time. It was super satisfying moving from one puzzle to the next, and felt like there were a good amount of puzzles through the whole thing. Overall it’s a nice “feel-good” room to do! 😊

This room flowed really well which is always satisfying. I found the set design to be well done overall, but it’s definitely an old school escape room feel which I don’t have a problem with. There were a couple puzzles in the room that seemed like “filler puzzles” that didn’t fit into the story of the room, but this isn’t uncommon in older style escape rooms. The music definitely added to the spooky factor and my partner got a good scare or two out of me which was hilarious 😂 Overall, I liked this room! It was simple but tricky enough to be satisfying. In the end the two of us escaped with 16:30 remaining on the clock!

This is my first genie themed room! I love the creativity in the set design in not only the room itself, but the lobby too! There were trinkets and fun things to look at everywhere, it was splendid. It’s a very logic based room, so if you’re having a bad brain day you might struggle like we did, but we still had fun! The only downside was that they declined our request to see how the rest of the room would’ve played out. I’ve actually never had that request rejected before!

We’ve been waiting to do this room since the moment it came out and man it didn’t disappoint! The puzzles were so much fun to solve, the theming is awesome and really well executed, it’s just overall a solid escape room that’s puurrrrfect for everyone to try out! (I’m sorry I had to)

This room immediately immerses you into the story as soon as you walk in! As is with all their rooms here, this set design was extremely well done. The puzzles were a joy to complete and I’d certainly recommend this room to everyone!

There was some serious effort put into the set design for this room, so I have to applaud the creators for their hard work! The gameplay itself was also a blast to complete so I’d definitely recommend this room to anyone and everyone!

I really enjoyed the storyline in this room! The puzzles had a good variety of difficulty and the GM was always checking up on us if he noticed we were stuck, which was nice! I love that this location offers the option of picking a difficulty for each room, which results in some objects/puzzles being altered in the room, and will adjust how much help you receive from the GM! I’ll note that this room follows the common “puzzle, lock, puzzle, lock, etc.” pattern which can be a con for some people. Overall it was fun! :)
