This room starts low light but is well lit once the lights are activated. The puzzles are unique and put a new "spin" on things. There are lots of surprises- every time you think you've got it, something else opens up! The ending to the story was fun & we never saw it coming! You can tell that so much work went in to the mechanics and technology behind everything in this room. As always, the customer service at Upside Down is top notch & you can tell they love what they do Side note: If you look really closely you'll find nods to their retired rooms. Kind of fun little Easter Eggs

I'm not a video game player so alot of the references probably went over my head, but this was a fun room anyway. Our experienced group of 5 finished this quickly but .... that left us plenty of time to go back & solve the bonus puzzles! I actually think the bonus puzzles were more challenging than the main puzzles. I loved that we could split up to work on puzzles separately. 1 puzzle was not reset but the gm fixed it & gave us a few extra minutes on the clock I know the Bonus Puzzles have gotten mixed reviews, but they get a πŸ‘ from me. I think they give the room a wider appeal where beginners can do the room but there is an added challenge for more experienced enthusiasts

Not an escape room. Multiple rooms with various challenges. We went twice - 6/27/21 & 1/16/23. It was fun... BUT.... definitely had the potential to be better. Both times multiple rooms were down for maintenance or were malfunctioning. Staff were all teenagers who didn't explain the rules & weren't particularly helpful. The 1st time we went, the 2 employees were running through the halls & crashed into my daughter causing her to hit her head. I sought out the manager & he did apologize & gave us passes to return

Standard "Disarm the bomb. Save the world" theme with a British twist. Set design was nice. More tech puzzles than standard lock which is always fun & led to 1 or 2 surprises. That being said, several puzzles were vague, there were "red herrings" that we wasted time trying to solve, & some puzzles didn't work quite as intended (requiring jiggling to get them to work). There was nothing "wrong" with the staff, but nothing great either. They were all business with absolutely no warmth or friendliness. There were delays getting hints & GM had to ask if we had already tried things. The GM never spontaneously offered hints or asked if we needed one. We spent 5 minutes on the final puzzle & ultimately did not escape. From other reviews, it seems like they monitor multiple games but there were at least 3 employees on (1 walked us in, another gave hints, a 3rd walked us out). The employee at the end was a little pushy trying to get a rebook. Overall, this game had alot of potential but in my opinion customer service is everything & this place just didn't provide a great experience. I'm sure being in Boston they'll get lots of tourist business no matter what, but it's not a place I would rush back to
