Lab at Loch NessThe Bureau Adventure GamesEscape roomIRLA fun room split room! Like with all Bureau games, the design is amazing and the tech-based gameplay leaves a bit to be desired. Triggers are difficult to decipher but the story beats are lots of fun once activated. This holds strong but isn’t quiet as good as Puppets or Aliens
The GateWill To Escape - OrlandoEscape roomIRLA fun room! Super linear with one puzzle requiring six hands, but all others done one at a time. I love the blend of Egyptology and science-fiction in the theme.
Downfall of the DonWill To Escape - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThe Game Masters at Will to Escape really make the experience. Justin is one of the best with his attentiveness and storytelling. As for the room, this one was a fun, relatively easy room with sequential puzzles. Some audio clues were hard to hear, but the GM was able to replay them remotely when we asked. Great theming including scents.
Jack the RipperLockbustersEscape roomIRLNot my favorite room. Interesting scenic and storytelling, but poor puzzles that relied on vague hints in the room and lots of logical leaps. There were a few puzzles that had been removed causing more red herrings. One puzzle was broken (objects wouldn’t stay in a slot) and the GM told us it was “an extra challenge” that we all had to hold the pieces in.
Fallout: Bunker Busters [prev. Doomsday Disaster!]The Escape Ventures - Orlando I-DriveEscape roomIRLOne of our new favorite rooms! Just opened last week, so it’s on amazing condition. Perfect combo of physical and digital puzzles, amazing GM John gave us just the right amount of clues, and fun music played throughout to groove too. Only issue is that many items were glued down when they should be screwed down, leading to us accidentally removing a few props.
Mission Unstoppable: Chopper DownLockbustersEscape roomIRLAs others have mentioned, this room has a great design but is a bit worn out. We had to ask for help on a few puzzles as they were broken or clues were worn away. Two staff covering the whole building meant they were not able to always help us out with these issues. We liked Dracula much more.
Gold RushThe Escape Game - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThis room is fun! Nice atmosphere, linear, physical puzzles (small groups recommended), and interesting trick puzzles. Their specialty is technology rooms, but this one still holds strong. Could use a bit more decoration past the first room though.
DraculaLockbustersEscape roomIRLThis was an amazing new room! Classic Lockbuster design with beautiful scenic and innovative storytelling. It’s a little challenging to remember what the zodiac signs look like for us non-astrology folks, but we still scraped by with two players just under time. Not too spooky, not too dark, not too hard. Highly recommended.
Curse of the Mummy [prev. Revenge of the Tomb] - CLOSEDPuzzle Corp. Escape Rooms [prev. America's Escape Game Orlando]Escape roomIRLA fun room! This multi-room experience works best with three people, but we still made it out with two and a couple of hints. Highlights were in the beautiful props, thematic puzzles including technology as clues, and lots of deciphering. This is an older room, so many relics of unused old puzzles remain as fun red herrings. This is our second room at America’s Escape game. Once you get past the sketchy lobby and sign-in experience, the rooms are quite nice. It is clear they are made with quite a low budget, but with a love of storytelling and gags. Safety note- there is an air effect that is loud enough to cause hearing damage in the final room. Our ears are still ringing.
Haunted HouseEscapology - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThis is a great room for those who like spooky but do not like gore. There are some light jump scares and an ouija board, but nothing too hard core. The puzzles were straightforward, effects were impressive, and storylines was fun. Recommended!
UFO: Go For LaunchThe Bureau Adventure GamesEscape roomIRLThis was our second Bureau game. These games do not have many puzzles, so take your time to lean into the story and have fun with the tasks. Many tasks can take a while to do even after you figure out what you have to do. really cool effects and design!
Cinema 7Will To Escape - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThe best room we’ve found in the I-drive area. This linear room has a clear storyline, relatively easy clues with a few stumpers, and a gorgeous art deco design.
Disappearance: Last LocationWill To Escape - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThis room is the best we have found on I-drive. Great team with plenty of design and backstory, fun effects, linear gameplay, and lots of physical locks. The cherry on top is that all rooms are private.
Asylum - CLOSEDPuzzle Corp. Escape Rooms [prev. America's Escape Game Orlando]Escape roomIRLSuch a fun room! Super spooky and well themed. Puzzles were difficult and tedious, but engaging. Some issues with rubbed off numbers, broken flashlights, and hard-to-trigger effects led us to not making it out, but that doesn’t stop me from giving this room a high score. Those jump-scares got me!
Mansion MurderEscapology - OrlandoEscape roomIRLWonderful, linear room! Easy and fun for intermediate Escapers with clear clues, a silly theme, and moderate to high theming.
Jurassic World: EscapeUniversal Studios OrlandoEscape roomIRLBeautiful theming, interesting effects, terrible gameplay. Hope it receives the update given to the Back to the Future room.
