Area 1: Nuclear EnrichmentProject Immersive Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLWow!! What a fun and memorable afternoon. My partner and I completed this room, favourite in Brisbane. Puzzles were relevant to the room, GM was hilarious and helpful, puzzles were clever and a joy to complete. A++
RockstarCityscape GamesEscape roomIRLWhat a joy this escape room was! My partner and I did this room the 2 of us and had a great time. The flow to the room was natural, and never got stuck for too long. The puzzles in the room were logical and there was an absence of red herrings which was so refreshing. An organised and fun experience.
Siren's CoveEscape Hour Point RustonEscape roomIRLThe escape room had an impressive set and friendly staff, but the experience quickly fell flat. The puzzles felt exhausting, with too many locks and a lot of time spent figuring out which box a solution went into. Some puzzles were clunky, relying on simply inputting visible numbers, lacking creativity and flow. While the atmosphere was great, many puzzles didn't live up to expectations, lacking depth.

BurlesqueEscapeXperienceEscape roomIRLWhat an experience this room is! Puzzles flowed beautifully, were all relevant to theme and there were a few surprises throughout. What a gem of a room.
The DepthsThe Escape Game - AustinEscape roomIRLTied with the train room for favourite room at this venue. Flowed well, very on theme. Great mix of easy, medium and hard puzzles. Very interactive.
Yukon GoldEscape! WhistlerEscape roomIRLThis could be a great room. If the hide and seek elements were replaced with a narrative stringing the clues together that would be a great start. There were features of the game that were really special, but it’s definitely missing the coherent flow of other escape rooms.
Game Of The DragonRush Escape Game - South YarraEscape roomIRLGreat game! However, Rush is very pricey for a company that only resets their games properly half the time. Not sure where the ‘premium’ part applies.
Curse of The Mayan RuinsEscape Hour Gig HarborEscape roomIRLThis room walks the line between dislike and like but it’s clear a lot of effort went into the set so I put ‘liked’. This company is great at atmosphere, clearly putting a lot of money into the set and ambience. This room felt tiring. Here’s a guidebook with a list of puzzles to complete along with instructions on how to do each one. I felt like my partner and I were just ticking off boxes. I would love for this company to get someone in to help them come up with innovative puzzles that are intuitive rather than having to explain every puzzle in their manual because the effort wasn’t put in. The excitement was manufactured by having dim lighting and overly loud music and a game master who would chime in frequently regarding the time left. Meh, just meh.
The Nine-NineRush Escape Game HawthornEscape roomIRLRelied too heavily on tv show relevance and jokes rather than puzzles that were coherent and creative.
