Very fun game with a mix of humor and spookiness. Not scary. Great flow and gameplay. The set design is great and the staff is friendly and gets into their roles.

Another fun game from Escape Ventures with well built sets and great interactive staff that heightens the game play. A few jump scares but not overly scary. The game flows well.

This is the best “play at home” games we’ve done as a take-away from a brick and mortar escape room. The art is great. The app to enter answers works well. The art is awesome. And the puzzles are inventive and well themed. It took us a little less than an hour, but it takes some preparation time to cut all the puzzle things out so a 90 minute estimate seems good from opening the envelope (or printing the pdf) to final solve.

We had a lot of fun. Otd be a good room for beginners. We finished pretty quickly, so it may be too easy for seasoned players.

The Escape Ventures - Orlando I-Drive

Escape room

Solid room with some jump scares. Linear puzzles that made logical sense. Some fairly unique puzzles. The story and setting and set design were great. Our game master played his role well introducing the game and interacting through clues in theme.

This room is better played with more people than the two we were. We solved it but needed just more than 60 minutes. We lost time on stupid things another of couple of people would have been able to help with. But the game overall is fun with innovative puzzles and a mix of low tech and high tech.

Operation Blacksheep is a fun room with unique puzzles. It’s a linear game with a good mix of game play. We were successful as a couple, but I’d recommend one or two more people.

Really fun room with a mix of traditional puzzles and some inventive high tech hijinx. Flows really well. We were successful with 2 but probably ideal for 4 players for extra eyes. Our game master Benji was great.

Escape Plan

Escape room

A non traditional room, instead of escaping a room, you need to find your way into the operations center of the RAF, and strategically plan to save London from air raids. It’s great to do escape rooms set in the city where you play and Escape Plan does a great job of this with their rooms. Their game masters are professional and helpful, great about setting the stage for the game, and nice to talk with before and after.

Pushed for Time

Escape Plan

Escape room

The 75 minute Pushed for Time offers both some high tech, an elaborate mechanical device and traditional puzzles to make a unique room. The theme/story isn’t necessarily unique, but it’s put together well and makes sense. Not as immersive as the other rooms at Escape Plan, but it’s a lot of fun to play.

Loved everything in the room from the themed exterior of the room, and throughout the gameplay. A fun preshow. The gameplay was linear with a unique way to keep you on track as you play through the game. Many unique elements. Highly recommended for new or seasoned players.

An older room, the game isn’t as high tech or deeply themed or innovative as their other room The Toymaker, but we still had a good time. The puzzles were well designed.

Great addition to Orlando escape rooms. Loved the theming and atmosphere. It’s spooky, not scary. Great puzzles and flow.

I loved the atmosphere and theming. Good puzzles and flow with a couple neat surprises (not the scary kind). The whole venue is beautifully themed, with a great staff.

Evasive Escape Rooms - Kissimmee [prev. Edge Escape]

Escape room
IRL

Edge Escapes is a mom and pop venue. The decor is hand painted. There are a few subtle nods to the Jungle Cruise with puns and room name but just nods. It’s fairly linear. We played with two people. If there were more than two someone may not always had something to do. Puzzles were good and tied to the theme pretty well. Not too much scavenger hunting though we did miss something early on that made us waste time later on.

A Christmas Story

Will To Escape - Orlando

Escape room

A fun room especially for fans of A Christmas Story. It’s pretty linear. Puzzles fit the story well and there’s some good use of technology instead of simple locks.

Jewel Escape

It’s a solid room but doesn’t break any new ground. The build quality is starting to show wear. The host was friendly.

The beginning of the game is very scavenger hunty. It may have been better with more than 2 people for that. The theming and puzzles are good.

Mystique Escape Room

Escape room

A very non-linear room. We played with only 2 people - it may have been better with more. The tech helped make things immersive but it was finicky. It was also scavenger hunty which isn’t outlet favorite. There’s a lot of writing in the room that is old and fading and hard to read with small writing.
