The Starlight Motel
Escape Artist Greenville - Downtown
Escape room
IRL
So we spent my birthday doing all the rooms at EAG's two locations. Now I'll officially go on record and say this room was my least favorite HOWEVER note that I still liked it. That was because I loved some of their other rooms more and this was more of an experience. There were some puzzles, but you definitely spent more time experiencing fear than solving puzzles and playing the game. This is still a must-do, but less to do an escape room and more to go through this event! (No spoilers!). Also, WOW. What a set, looks and feels like an old motel where bad things happen! And Quinn played the motel manager-just perfection!

So much like Starlight Motel, I'll say this wasn't one of my favorites, which is crazy because note all the awards. I still liked it, but similar to Motel, this is as much as "experience". Definitely more puzzles than Motel and if you do all the rooms here, the overarching storyline fits in perfectly, but this story is chilling. There are some SCARY moments and the set is just amazing. It's still a must-do!

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! I can't give away spoilers, but suffice to say, it's a joyride from start to finish. (And it's only the first chapter!) The puzzles are good, nothing crazy hard, although this is as much an experience as an escape room! Go do this and enjoy yourself!
Neighborhood Watcher
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
On paper, this should just be a decent room. You are trapped in the house of a possible serial killer. But this room is special and Escape Ventures has delivered a well-deserved award winning experience. From the story (which sets the players as children) to the way that you first end up in the wrong house, things are golden. Add to that the creepy 80s house and the way the game evolves and you end up really feeling like you better escape or else! Best of all was the in-person actor who plays the disturbing neighbor! She was the key factor in this being a must-do game!
Wrecked
Masterpiece Escapes
Escape room
IRL
This room is a must-do if you are in the Charlotte area, let alone at Masterpiece Escapes! No wonder it has so many awards and nominations! 1. The setting: Masterpiece never disappoints with their sets & this is the first junkyard escape room I've ever been in! 2. The puzzles: after doing many rooms, you sometimes will start to at least see familiar ones. Not here! EVERY puzzle was unique! 3. The flow just moved along wonderfully. The first 2/3 of this room are very linear followed by a very non-linear finale!
Operation Arctic Storm: The Final Meltdown
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
WHAT A GAME! It's one thing to have a game IN an Arctic research station, but it's next-level to do one where you have to leave the station to go "outside" into the polar depths! Throw in some dark humor & a fantastic in-person actor & this game is a must-do!
Help Wanted

This room was great for many many reasons. First off at this location, all three rooms have an overarching storyline that isn't a stretch. Everything from the set design to the puzzles, and what you were asked to do, as well as the interactions with the live actor, what an incredible time! One thing that I really appreciate it was that this was an experience as well. Sometimes, the experience supercedes the fact that you are doing an escape room (less puzzles, etc) but not here! It was a perfect balance! And the dark humor, wow. This room is a must-do!
Crazy Train: The Ballad of Skeemin' Plotz
Doldrick's Escape Room
Escape room
IRL
And...this is my new favorite escape room. Where do I begin? Let's start with the description: you are on a train trying to thwart a dastardly mustachioed Snidely Whiplash-like villain on a train set in a black & white 1920's cartoon! The entire game is like this! I had the best time sometimes laughing so much, I almost forgot to solve puzzles! A must-do in Orlando, Doldrick's was already a stand-out & then reset their own bar with this one! There's a reason this game is ranked as one of the best in the world!

Let’s get this out-of-the-way: EAG is an amazing company and while I liked all of their rooms, this is, in my mind, the absolute best! A 10/10. It’s their newest one, but I promise you it’s going to be award winning! This now ties for my favorite game ever. Every game at this location is tied together, so given the dark themes of the overarching storyline, as well as the other games, it’s almost startling how this is the opposite. You are in a fairytale kingdom out of a child’s dream, and the puzzles are all perfectly done and themed & the “live actor” interaction STILL makes me laugh out loud & I was bent over hysterical during the game itself! However, that ending. Experiencing that was my a-ha moment, realizing what a special game I was a part of. Looking back at this review, it’s lots of praise, but not a lot of detail. Good. I don’t want to spoil a thing, but this is one that everyone should experience.

THIS. This was AMAZING. One can see why this MUST-DO room is so highly ranked. The future setting, the hilarious hint-system, the amazing puzzles. This was as much an escape room as an experience without sacrificing one for the other. Keep an eye out for lots of futuristic movie easter eggs. The set was just perfect (think Blade Runner meets Cyberpunk 2077). I could go on and on. If you are in the area, DO THIS ROOM. If you want to do this room, come to the area!
