    Great escape room! Lots of clever and unique puzzles that fit really well with the theme and made it a fantastic underwater adventure.

    Another spectacular room from Keystone escape games. The decor and ambiance was fantastic, the puzzles were new and clever and required some great teamwork.

    Great beginner room. Well designed, great theme and environment, everything worked well. It was fairly straightforward, nothing particularly new or difficult. Perfect for someone new to escape rooms.

    Decent room- not great, but not terrible. There were some fun new puzzles I hadn't seen before which was neat. On the downside, they relied on several RF mechanics that didn't always work exactly right, hopefully they fix most of that soon. Also there were a couple puzzles that didn't link well for what to do with the information given.

    Solid 90 minute room. The story length is good, lots of good puzzles and challenges. Several with some clever extra steps. Really great production value. Great set and everything worked well. Just one small issue with some coloring that they likely fixed after we pointed it out.

    Fantastic room, well designed, everything worked perfectly, the decor and ambiance was spot on. Puzzles were clever and they had a good way of distinguishing episode 1 and 2.

    Fun room, a great second episode, they connected it well, ambiance was fantastic. Second room was slightly harder and had a lot of clever puzzles. However I just have it as thumbs up vs a love because there was a puzzle that the clue didn't link well to the solution (surprising given that all the rest of their puzzles are very well done with clever ways to make it difficult, not confusing ways). Also one other puzzle didn't work well mechanically and required prompting from the gamemaster.

    Overall a good escape game, but not as good as the others I've played at The Escape Game. There were two particular solutions that were frustrating, not because they were cleverly difficult but because one was a not good link from puzzle to how to use it, and the other because it required assumptions that shouldn't have to be made in well designed escape games. (Sorry, that's very vague, but didn't want to spoil anything). Again, still a good experience with lots of clever puzzles and great immersion, but just not quite the 100% great puzzles I associate with The Escape Game.
