Operation Arctic Storm: The Final Meltdown
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
Pros: Theme is amazing, it’s so good that you feel immersed into the environment! It was definitely hard not to look around and stay focused on the tasks. We loved how everything was well designed and thought out! There was also a ton of puzzles/locks for everyone in the party to get involved with. The amount of physical activity was light to moderate depending on who you ask in our party, all though enjoyable nonetheless. Cons: The puzzles weren’t very challenging for us, there were just a lot of them. We weighed these as a con because we value the gratification of solving a hard puzzle over multiple easy ones. At the end we all discussed how some of the puzzles were solved without completing the physical task we were required to do to get our answer, which took a little bit from the experience (But we did them anyway). Towards the final part of the room there was a puzzle that was finicky and required using a tool/object at a precise angle (which was annoying) despite having the correct answer/solution. Apart from the few cons of the room, we thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend doing this one if you’re a fan of being challenged to solve physically active puzzles and doing lots of them. Game Master Review: We typically remember the name of our game master, but this one wasn’t really one we were impressed with. It certainly felt like she was more bothered by us rather than welcoming. This was definitely a surprise to us considering all of the great reviews we’ve read about this company. I mean, we drove over 4 hours and 300 miles just for this place. Not only did we reserve two rooms with 5 people, but we had a third planned that we decided to skip because of the game master. However, we all understand that anyone can have a bad day so we won’t judge this place based off just one employee so at some point we will be back to do the others. Overall: This is one of the nicest/well designed rooms we’ve been to in all of Florida. We can tell a lot of detail and work went into this one and we loved this about the room. The flow was very nice and every time we solved a puzzle or unlocked a new door there was more things for everyone to do as we progressed. The transition from room to room was both interesting and exciting. This experience required communication and a good amount of coordination which we all enjoyed. Also, all of the objects/items were fully functional and maintained well. As far as the amount of time allocated for this room is concerned, we all think it was a good value for what we paid for considering there was tons of activity for each person in a group of 4 or more. Things we wished were better or felt could be improved: Game Master! As noted above, this was probably the only negative of the day/night that stood out. Although, she’s wasn’t a part of the room, she was part of the experience which is why we knocked our overall experience down .5 points. Experience Rating: 7.5/10
Bros for Life: Fraternity Heist
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
Pros: Theme felt authentic from start to finish, Semi-Dark but light is present throughout so it’s not scary at all (Flashlights Provided). Fun Puzzles that included math, abstract, special effects, and deciphering. Flow was really nice and everything was well maintained. For the most part this game was very interactive, engaging, and light physical activity was required but nothing that wasn’t manageable. Cons: We all felt like this room was missing something more technological. But overall we really enjoyed this room. Game master: Jon was great! He was there immediately when ever we asked for a little nudge without giving away the answer. He was very nice from beginning to end and even asked us if we would like a family photo at the end of the game. To be quite honest, our experience with Jon was the complete opposite of what our other host was as this place for Final Meltdown. Unlike The young lady at the front which gave us our worst escape room experience ever. Overall experience rating 8.7 How we came up with our rating: Theme:10/10 Interactivity: 9/10 Puzzles: 6/10 Upkeep: 10/10 Storyline: 6/10 Game Master Boost (Jon): + .5
