Panthers HollowBerlin Escape RoomEscape roomIRLGreat use of space and theme related to the location in Amish country. Puzzles were challenging but not too hard for a group of 2. Was impressed with the types of puzzles needing different ways of thinking. It was the second room we did at this company and would come back to finish the rest of their rooms.
The MezzanineDecode Detroit - Ann ArborEscape roomIRLGreat unique theme that carried from before the start of the game to the end. Tons of puzzles but didn’t feel too overwhelming even for a team of 2. Very unique puzzles that needed different types of thinking to solve so larger groups would benefit but still had a great time.
Edison's Lost InventionMagic Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLGreat story from start to end where the puzzles made sense to the theme and story. We came back to Columbus to try out this room as it wasn’t built when we did their Houdini’s Secret. Puzzle elements were new and creative. Would definitely recommend their rooms.
Sweet RevengeEscape WadsworthEscape roomIRLGreat room with a novel storyline with thematic puzzles throughout. Our team really enjoyed the room and how much they were able to do in the space they had. There were a couple of new elements that I had never seen in an escape room before which was definitely a highlight. Will definitely come back for their Miner room.
Arcade Challenge [prev. Retro Replay]The Great Escape Room - AkronEscape roomIRLThe room felt like you stepped into a childhood arcade back in the 80s/90s. Very nostalgic yet still enjoyable for those that might not understand all the various Easter eggs. Great use of space and puzzle complexity.
Magician’s SecretMagic Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLAwesome experience starting before entering the room itself. Some puzzles were new and inventive for us as we had not encountered them before. Story throughout felt very immersive. Excited to come back and try their next room.
Cows in SpaceTeam Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLReally enjoyed the full experience. One of the most unique and best rooms I’ve done with regards to themed puzzles, variety of skills needed to solve puzzles, laugh factor, unique Easter eggs to pop culture materials. Great room and would travel back again to finish the rest offered by this company.
Immunity QuestTeam Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLGreat 30 min room which GM said they bring out at festivals. Really good beginner room.
Super Plumber Bros.Escape Room - MentorEscape roomIRLHighly thematic room from pizzles to set design. Truly feels like you’ve stepped into a video game. The puzzles are consistent with other rooms from the same company with some new that we hadn’t seen before. Fun for the family and still scratches the puzzle itch.
Ghost LightMyssTic RoomsEscape roomIRLAmazing set design. Very glad to finally do this room after my experience with Montauk Project years ago. Unique puzzles kept our group entertained as there were some we solved that we haven’t seen utilized before. Everything was very thematic even before walking into the room. Ghost Mika (our GM) was amazing and offered support without being pushy or leading especially when we didn’t realize something opened/moved.
Submarine - The Unknown AbyssEscape MedinaEscape roomIRLDid this room for my birthday and was the 4th room done at this location. Great puzzles and high tech props which were thematic to the story. Some new elements and puzzles we had never seen before but not too difficult for new enthusiasts.
Stranger 80sEscape Room - MentorEscape roomIRLSeasoned escape enthusiast did this room as a duo and did not escape. A wide variety of puzzles and sheer number was great but definitely needed 4+ people as there was a lot to do. Great puzzle theming and incorporation of puzzles to the theme.
Inventor's ParadoxEnter the ImaginariumEscape roomIRLAmazing immersive experience from the moment you step onto the property. Did their first room as a seasoned duo and was impressed by the variety of puzzles. There was a lot to do for two people but we managed. There was no way to communicate with the GMs so we weren’t sure if we could ask for a hint but wasn’t an issue as we switched puzzle control to get a new set of eyes to solve. There was no clock so you had to rely on your internal clock (we chose to lock our phones away) or wait for the room to mention a time which happened twice. Overall the set design and quality of puzzles was worth the price for escape room enthusiasts.
Ninja Academy: A Sewer Escape [prev. Turtle Power: A Sewer Escape]Escape Room - CoventryEscape roomIRLThe theme of the room was carried out well throughout the room. The puzzles felt very thematic and what you might expect to see. There were a good mix of puzzles that can be done either as a single person or as a group so it would be good for a family to play. This room is a great addition to the Coventry location from Escape Room Cleveland. Justin our DM was great as he explained things we didn’t understand how it solved and how we did as a team overall. Would go back to this location for their future rooms again.
Blackbeard's Revenge - A Pirates CurseSt. Louis EscapeEscape roomIRLGreat room with good puzzles and amazing immersive props. Unfortunately this was the same room I played in Washington DC with a national chain which I didn’t know about prior due to lack of pictures or images of the room.
The Wonderful Wizard of OzSt. Louis EscapeEscape roomIRLA good nod to the books and movies while still being an escape room with good puzzles. Really enjoyed the beginning and slightly lost interest in terms of escape room puzzles as the room went on. Production value and immersiveness was very high. It was the second room done at this location on the same day.
VampiresEscape MedinaEscape roomIRLThis was the third room I’ve done at this company and was my favorite one so far. The immersive was and novelty with puzzles and how to solve them were a great mix of old school and new age. The utilization of props and atmosphere were really tied in to the story of the room.
Rob the Mob: Break-In At Bubba's Escape RoomThe Great Escape Room - AkronEscape roomIRLGood immersive set felt as though we had entered a pawn shop. The puzzles throughout the game were challenging and sometimes not straight forward which required different ways of thinking. Great use of technology and props which made sense with the theme of the room.
Jurassic EscapeEscape The Room - ManhattanEscape roomIRLGreat immersive set. Puzzles were challenging but not overly difficult. No knowledge of the movie franchise is necessary. Things triggered quickly so we were unsure if we had solved a puzzle properly or who solved it when multiple people were interacting with things simultaneously. Was able to debrief with the GMs.
The ChainSaw RoomEscape Room - ClevelandEscape roomIRLGreat room whether you are a fan of the Saw Series or not. There is a mix of puzzles which require various thought tactics. There were elements where time lapsed but we were waiting on the room itself so it made it stressful knowing all the seconds mattered. Hints given were useful and showed the GMs were watching.
