The Hollywood Mystery: A Room NoirConundrum Escape Rooms - ArvadaEscape roomIRLOverall it's a very fun room. There was one puzzle that we were stuck on a while. But the theming was great, the puzzles were pretty fun. The GM was really into the storyline, which was great!
HauntedHD Escape Rooms - DenverEscape roomIRLIt's a very small room. Everything is a bit worn, old, dirty and even gross. Storyline is fine, but the theming is a bit lacking. The puzzles are ok and pretty standard, but in general not a big fan of padlocks, and they way they did it here is a bit out of place. I would say try to do the other rooms instead.
Scrooge: the Search for Holiday SpiritConundrum Escape Rooms - ArvadaEscape roomIRLIt's a fun theme, and it was a fun room with a lot of puzzles. The puzzles are challenging enough, and sometimes after you knew how it worked, kinda made sense and easy. Fun theming. We had fun!
Strike it Rich!Golden Puzzle RoomEscape roomIRLI'm usually not a big fan of padlocks, and already a red flag for me when in the beginning they had to teach you on how to open to many types of padlocks, but somehow in this one it didn't bother me as much. Maybe because the padlocks made sense as part of the theming, and how to find the code are fun, challenging and on theme. When at the end we're all like looking at each other and say, hey that was fun, I feel like it was a fun experience. The puzzle are definitely fun and on theme, and although there are a lot of padlocks, there are a lot of high tech puzzles too. I would recommend if you haven't done it.

The Tears of FreyaMystic Escape Room - DenverEscape roomIRLThis is one of the best in Denver so far for me. The theming is next level, and not a single padlock in sight, all the puzzles are fun, challenging and unique. The immersion is great, not just physical theming, but also audio theming. Just go if you haven't gone!
Path of the GodsConundrum Escape Rooms - ArvadaEscape roomIRLThe rooms were big, which was awesome, the theming was great too! I'm sure this was a temporary thing, but there were only two of us, and it was toasty in there, and it's hard to concentrate and thing when you're sweating. The puzzles were on the challenging side I would say, but fun. There was one puzzle which was a bit hard to solve because it's not an exact thing, and a lot of room for interpretation (but in a way fits the theming, so it's ok).
Blackbeard's Brig - CLOSEDEscapeWorks Denver - Convention CenterEscape roomIRLIn a way the pirate theming is not unique, but it was different enough that it was still fun. The puzzles were not as linear that it will be fun even with a larger group of people since multiple puzzles can be solved at the same time. There was one puzzle that was challenging to figure out, but once you did it sounded so easy. One drawback in my opinion is the number of padlocks in the rooms, feel like it’s relying a bit too much on padlocks although it had some high tech puzzles, but there were quite a few padlocks for my preference. But overall still a very fun experience.
Curse on the Emerald SeasPuzzle Effect - PhoenixEscape roomIRLWas worried during the start video to see so many different types of padlocks, thinking that this was gonna be one of those padlocks kinda room. But the padlocks were integrated and not in a back to back sequence and the mechanical locks were integrated into the whole experience that I didn’t mind the padlocks at all. The theming was very immersive and the puzzles were fun!
Frost Base ZRabbit Hole Recreation ServicesEscape roomIRLThe theming is great, the storyline is fun. Some of the puzzles were a bit hard, but we eventually figured them out. A portion is somewhat physical, but there is a bypass (but would ruin the experience).
Room 303 - Chapter 1303 Escape - Denver Escape RoomEscape roomIRLIt’s a very unique setting, storyline and atmosphere, it is a bit creepy and dark (but there is an option to turn on the light in case you have difficulties reading etc). But highly recommend not doing that to keep it spooky. The puzzles are fun, engaging, and interactive. There were a few effects which I’ve never seen before. Highly recommend it. And love it that there’s an overlaying storyline over all the rooms.
The Nuketown DinerOdyssey Escape Game - SuwaneeEscape roomIRLOverall to me it was a unique concept and theming, and we had fun. The puzzles for the most part were medium difficulty and make sense. There were a couple of puzzles that were either so nondescript that in my opinion the majority of the people would never have guessed without a clue, or not quite working as anticipated. But overall can recommend it for general audience.
TH3 C0D3Escapology - DenverEscape roomIRLYou will have fun if you’re kinda new or a beginner at escape rooms. But if you’re an escape room enthusiast I would skip this one. The storyline is a bit unrealistic, the puzzles were easy to medium. There was one puzzle that was super not intuitive. We escaped with plenty of time with the 4 of us and only 2 had done escape rooms.
Ruins of the Mystic TempleRabbit Hole Recreation ServicesEscape roomIRLOur host was very engaging and friendly. The rooms are beautifully themed and detailed. The puzzles are well thought out and not as linear as some of the ones we’ve done, which made it fun, you have to remember all of the items you have encountered before to solve some of the puzzles. Highly recommended
Casino HeistPanIQ Room - Las VegasEscape roomIRLThe theming is fun being in Vegas and kinda expected. The puzzles were fun and pretty high tech and we didn’t have problem with them not working. Overall I think it’s a good escape room. Definitely should do this if you’re in the area and have some time to kill.
