Storyteller's Secret
Boxaroo
Escape room
IRL
This room is very highly praised, so I had VERY high expectations going into it. And it is a great room! But I actually enjoyed one of their other rooms more, and I wouldn't call this room in my top 10 all-time. That being said, it is absolutely worth a stop if you're in the area. The room is incredibly unique in regards to its play style, and it was a lovely experience with an amazing hint system. We got a behind-the-scenes tour as enthusiasts which was really special, too.

Omescape - Sunnyvale
Escape room
IRL
This was an excellent room with a ton of immersion, great set, cool details. The last part of it truly felt like a video game that came to life! I REALLY did not like one particular puzzle which took this room down a notch for me, but every other puzzle was great, and in a 2 hour room that's a nice feat. Highly recommend.

Neighborhood Watcher
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
I've done over 60 rooms and this one is in my top 10. I don't typically enjoy "scary" rooms as I don't love jump scares, but they gladly modified the room for my tastes (gave all the jump scares to my husband, and not to me). The live actor and the tension they created was phenomenal. Besides that, the puzzles were super fun and well constructed, and the set decorations and theme was on-point. TEV does a great job of making the experience start BEFORE the room and this one was no exception. Play this one!
Crazy Train: The Ballad of Skeemin' Plotz
Doldrick's Escape Room
Escape room
IRL
Fun and cute room that is incredibly unique in its theme, relatively easy until one particular puzzle at the end had us pulling out our hair. We knew WHAT to do, just found it incredibly difficult to execute and it probably took 10+ minutes to finish. There was only 2 of us which contributes, but it put a damper on an otherwise very fun room. I wouldn't come in here with more than 3. It's a small space!

Doldrick's Escape Room

This is their stand-out room and it was not a disappointment. I'll agree with others that the pirate theme is well-worn, but this one was very nicely done. I duo almost every escape room with my husband, and it's rare that I wish for more people in the room - but here, I'd like 4. We did escape but it would have been easier with more people for sure. Having only 2 when you not only start out separate, but play a decently large chunk of the game in different rooms, was certainly unique!

Captivating Worlds
Escape room
IRL
Not my absolute favorite game at Captivating Worlds (that would be Deep Underground) but still a solid play. It is by far their toughest room. As a team of 2 (experienced), we escaped, but just barely. You will do better with a few more people; 4-5 could be a sweet spot here, I think. There was one excellent and surprising reveal in the room and a really fun and frantic finale. The theming was excellent. My only minor complaint is that occasionally, things obviously opened but it wasn't very clear what it was; however our Game Master was quick to let us know where to look when that happened.
Deep Underground
Captivating Worlds
Escape room
IRL
So far we have done 3 of the 4 rooms with Captivating Worlds and this one was absolutely my favorite. A great, immersive beginning (although I felt like the first puzzle was the toughest due to poor directions, but that is the only ding I had) and great scenery and setting. Mostly next gen with a few standard locks. Our GM was great in when we asked for a hint, he let us (experienced escapers) know when we were making great time and based on that info to ask if we REALLY wanted a clue or not. Having that hint about time management was really helpful. We completed this room with 2 people (experienced escapers). Parking was easy. Everyone is always very nice. One of the best escape rooms in Columbus.
The Attraction
Palace Games
Escape room
IRL
Absolutely the most unique escape room I've ever done; almost more like an immersive experience. I would NOT recommend this for newer escape room folks. Not only is it quite difficult, but you will not be properly blown away by how very different and special this room is until you've seen what "typical" escape rooms often look like. One of my favorite rooms I've ever done. Worth traveling in for! There is more than one moment that will absolutely blow your mind, trust me.
Conundrum Museum
Boxaroo
Escape room
IRL
Most people think this is Boxaroo's worst room...but it was actually my favorite. The theme is the most boring and cliche of all their rooms, absolutely. But every single puzzle made sense (with the potential exception of one which we got quickly, but there wasn't really an indication that what we did SHOULD be done except just...trying things out). The rest of the puzzles made up for that issue. If you're in the area, this should be on your list!
The Satirical Miracle: A Jolly Tale Of Granny's Blackmail
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
Every single room at TEV is excellent and this one is no exception. We played it right after Neighborhood Watcher (which was PHENOMENAL) and this was definitely a weaker showing than that, but still would be a top class room everywhere else. We did solve one puzzle (which turned something on) then took long enough in step two for that puzzle to turn off and we had to re-do it...the only potential issue we saw. The actress / GM did a great job! This room is on the easier side so if you're newer, or looking for a warm-up, give this one a go.
