Cosmic CrisisThe Escape Game - MinneapolisEscape roomIRLMe and my grandma loved Cosmic Crisis at The Escape Game at MOA! It was very well done. The amount of high tech elements alongside physical props helped you get immersed immediately. Once the door was shut, I thought I was inside a spaceship. The lighting, effects, and sound design were all on point. Each element had a purpose and there wasn’t anything that didn’t happen for a reason. The clue giving mechanic is this room is amazing and so lovely. Everything in this room felt purpose built. There wasn’t anything that felt like it was bought off of Amazon. Or at least if it was, it was given a special redesign to fit the theme. The intro story at the beginning was great to get you immersed, but it almost went by too quickly. I would have like a quick recap on why we are supposed to complete these tasks. But there was a recap on what tasks needed to be completed as well as a screen with the tasks listed on it. The staff here is amazing! Aliana at the front desk was wonderful, we told her about our goal to complete all the MN escape rooms, and she and our GM (I’m so sorry I forgot their name) ended up giving us a TEG passport with all the TEG rooms and pins for the rooms we had completed so far, and a Minneapolis location shirt! Overall I really enjoyed this room. 8.5/10
Wizard's TowerTrapped Puzzle Rooms - Saint PaulEscape roomIRLGreat wizarding world themed escape room! Went for the theme, stayed for the puzzles! Our team of 4, comprised of entirely newbies, were able to escape with some help from the wonderfully designed hint giving system. The overall design of the puzzles take a sec to figure out but make sense in the overall story. There was one puzzle that was a bit worn and hard to decipher. Overall amazing room for how old it is!
The DepthsThe Escape Game - MinneapolisEscape roomIRLThis was my first room with TEG. Played as a group of 5 with a large variety of ages. The overall theming and story were great and easy to understand. There is a screen that shows you what your objectives are and if they’re completed which was really handy. I will say there were two puzzles that threw me off. One of the puzzles looked solved but apparently wasn’t. But the last puzzle, I was just overthinking the puzzle. Overall and wonderful experience!
