Storyteller's Secret

Storyteller's Secret

Boxaroo

Escape room
IRL

The atmosphere, story and aesthetics were A+ - a really lovely, immersive experience with a satisfying, inspiring ending. With just two players, some of the gameplay was slowed down by us running back and forth between areas trying to figure out what had changed after certain actions (the otherwise lovely background music was so loud it masked clueing sounds) - thankfully the great GM helped us with nudges. The hint system was one of the nicest I’ve seen. Bring a flashlight if you have trouble with vision in darker spaces! One piece of equipment apparently didn’t work as intended in our game as we were able to get an item slightly out of correct sequence. Overall very highly recommended and well deserving of its multiple accolades!

This was only the third escape room we’d ever done, and months later it remains a gold standard for us - immersive, unique, humorous, with diverse, logical puzzles and good flow. I don’t remember any bottlenecks for our two-person team, and the room scales for bigger/smaller teams. The owner who ran the room is great, and took the time to talk to us about the design and philosophy afterwards. The Body Shop tends to be my top recommedation for a Boston area room (along with Boxaroo).

This was a unique, fun, quirky experience! I had some pre-game concerns about the fit for our team of one escape room enthusiast and two retired parents with minimal escape room experience and varying attention spans, English being none of our first language, and us being in three countries and on two continents. The game was a great success! It worked really well for everyone - the pace was great, music and visuals engaging even for the team member with short attention span who is less of a puzzler, and we really felt we were doing something together. Extra plus for subtitles for the songs and cut scenes! The peek behind the scenes at the end also really added to the experience. I’ve already made a date with a friend new to eacape rooms living in another city to do this together.

I get the appeal for kids and teenagers, but for us, Boda Borg was like the worst parts of escape rooms - incredibly high ratio of process to a-ha moment, with the added frustration of having to wait in line to try again. Being there Saturday afternoon also meant that the screaming, squealing and banging on doors by the approximately billion young’uns there seriously intervened with the audio puzzles. For adult questers, it’s likely best to go during the week and definitely do the four hours - otherwise standing in lines is the quest you’ll spend the most time doing.

MyssTic Rooms

Escape room
IRL

Simply of the best rooms I’ve played. Terpeca winners are Terpeca winners because of atmosphere, great puzzle flow, emotional resonance and some sense of “the epic”; and amazingly MyssTic managed to achieve a lot of this in a footprint that’s a fraction of the epic top tier games. It’s a really good game, and the ending was spot on. I’m still delighted by it days later.

Escape room

Our team of two chickens decided to become braver and try a scary room: this was a great intro to the scarier side since it was more creepy than terror-inducing; i.e. it was still possible to think. This room is recommended with a 3-person minimum which makes sense; our fairly experienced 2-person team barely got out in time and had to get repeated nudges to cover our search fails. The character in the room really makes the game, and there was a nice little piece of story to work out too. Of note: one person needs to not be claustrophobic to be able to play.

Our team of five had a lot of fun with this room that was clearly designed with thought and crafted with care. It hit all the right dramatic beats for a “heist” and contained very nice wow moments that could be shared by most or all of the players. Enough to do for five, with intuitive flow for what to do. Our team struggled with two puzzles, one a bit process-y and a cekestial one where the GM (not one of the owners) seemed to not be responsive for a few minutes despite us asking for a nudge multiple times. These lower notes did not mar the experience and the fun final act - I would definitely take another group here!

Escape room
Tabletop

The best at-home experience we’ve done so far. It lived on the dining table for days as we came back to it to do an hour or two at a time, and I really miss it! The puzzles were overall fair and satisfying - doable without hints if we slept on it whenever we got stuck. Of course there were a couple of frustrating ones, but even then there was fair clueing (you REALLY needed daylight for one). The world was rich, immersive and emotionally resonant. We actually paused the game for a while before the ending because there was a decision that felt… existential and important? That’s not your everyday puzzle game, and this is not your everyday puzzle game.

Beyond Escape

Escape room
IRL

It’s so refreshing to come across a room you haven’t already seen a dozen times (don’t get me wrong, I love those Egyptian tombs, too)! The story and the texture of the world The Heart of the Mountain built are really lovely, utilizing lesser known Nordic mythology. Along with the world building, the puzzle design really shone: it’s clear, clean and logical. I think it’s the first game our team of two has ever played where we didn’t need any nudges; not because the game was too easy, but because it felt so well designed (and/or playtested). We did a day trip from Boston to do all three rooms at Beyond Escape and it was well worth the trip. Also, everyone working there from the designer-owners to the GM we met were just great. Would highly recommend as worth a trip!

The concept of the room is such great fun, and even if it is geared more towards families and kids, our team of two adults enjoyed ourselves very much. As with their other rooms, the puzzle design is logical, well clued in the room, and flows well. There were moments of great delight, and one task that was simple enough, but one I had never done before in an escape room and that was just fun. It was impossible to not smile in this room! Great place to start with beginning escape room players, but well worth doing for experienced ones as a pleasurable puzzle snack.

Every escape room. Every haunt. Ever.
