Ghost Light
Myss Tic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Some unique puzzles and mechanisms in the room that were all on point with the theme. The very few locks they had were old timey that fit the room's time period. Touching ending that will stay with me long after I've played this room. Easy to see why it's won awards year after year. Worth the trip out to Brooklyn - 25 mins on subway from Theatre District. Perfectly themed if you're in New York City to see a Broadway show.
Montauk Project
Myss Tic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Nice variety of puzzles and mystery theme. Not too difficult with two experienced players. Game master Jen was great, we only needed one hint. If you're only doing one room at Myss Tic I recommend Ghost Light, but Montauk still better than some independent rooms I've done.
Yacht Heist
Total Escape
Escape room
IRL
Still in my Top 3 even after 19 rooms. Great immersion and theming. Lots of variety in the puzzles. The goal isn't just your standard "get out in an hour" which added to the enjoyment. High tech room which belies it's basement of an office building location. Highly recommend going if you live in the area or are just driving through NC on I-85 or I-40.
Cosmic Crisis
The Escape Game - Brooklyn
Escape room
IRL
After finishing it, Cosmic Crisis is now in my Top 3 rooms (with 19 currently played). Wonderful sci-fi theme. Many unique puzzle types. The clue system was different than anything else at The Escape Game that I've done (this was my 6th there). And that ending!!! 😢 One of the puzzles required a lot of back and forth with only two players; would have been easier with four. Highly recommend this one. Only available at a handful of their locations - worth heading over to Brooklyn for this if you'll be in New York City - 20 minute subway ride from the theatre district (then play Timeliner there too!)
Dracula
Nerd Escapes
Escape room
IRL
Was great experience for two people, any more than four I don't think there would be enough for everyone to do. Puzzles were linear, and often in two parts. Some of the mechanisms were a bit fiddly. Pleased with the puzzles creativity vs a bunch of locks. Great job staying on theme and it being spooky in parts.
The Depths
The Escape Game - Brooklyn
Escape room
IRL
Great high tech room. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Theme between first and second areas felt a little inconsistent to me. Of the six The Escape Game rooms I've done, this was my least favorite. But even the weakest room at The Escape Game is still far better than most other companies in terms of variety and wow factor. Only reason it's a thumbs up vs love is we've gotten spoiled with their other rooms and we've come to expect the best from them.
Heist of the Gettysburg Address
Escape Gettysburg
Escape room
IRL
Did the Heist of Gettysburg Address room. 2 players, finished with 5 minutes to spare and used 2 hints. Would say it's an intermediate level room - could be really challenging for first time players or just two people who haven't done a bunch of rooms before. Don't be afriad to use the hints - we wouldn't have made it out with them. Have done several escape rooms before, and was pleased that a number of the puzzles here were different than I've seen in the past. The theme was integrated really well into the room throughout; one of the best themes I've seen (and hyper specific to Gettysburg too). Game Master was friendly and gave good hints when we needed them.
Impulsion
Kersey Valley Escape
Escape room
IRL
The theme felt all over the place, like a mix of Stranger Things with a Museum with Alice in Wonderland. Needed LOTS of help from Game Master, a number of puzzles were needlessly complicated and hard to figure out. Has potential, but I wouldn't recommend this one. Maybe try one of their other rooms. We did escape with a few minutes to spare with two people.
