Factory Heist: Operation Green BeanEvasive Escape Rooms - SarasotaEscape roomIRLSo much fun!!! What a great theme and whimsical story. Very expansive space with lots of fun exploration and elevations. I would say this experience has the most creative and fun puzzles of the Evasive games, which works well within the theme and keep you moving around for sure - worked so well. Super impressive tech and game host locations as well!! Chris, Trevor and Taylor’s design style shines bright in this experience - definitely enjoy every bit of the design and detail crammed in here especially if you play all over the nation (a ton of great Easter eggs). A new favorite!!
The Family Fallout ShelterEvasive Escape Rooms - SarasotaEscape roomIRLLove the theme of this game and the vibes. Great use of a smaller space, but easy to follow, fun storyline with unique puzzles. Take your time and appreciate all the details and story audio- love the character and show elements as well. So much fun!!
The Whispering Pages at Blackwood LibraryEscape RealityEscape roomIRLWOW!! Emma and Hayden knocked their first game out of the park. The experience flowed SO incredibly well and the use of space was GREAT. A strong story with impressive show elements and a ton of unique and fun puzzles filled throughout. A new favorite in the Florida market!!! A solid level of scares, but nothing too intense for those that are turned off by scary experiences. So excited for the next game they’re working on as well👀
Castle FlüffendorEscape Artist Greenville - Hampton StationEscape roomIRLAnother banger from EAG!!! This stands out as an incredibly intentional and unique escape room experience. The scenery and world design combined with the technical elements were interesting and worked so well to tell a beautiful story with an excellent cast of characters. Design and functionality is something to appreciate beyond just the experience. Will, Kim and the rest of the team continue to blow my mind. Considering everything about this experience, this stands at the top of my list of escape rooms!
Man's Best FriendTrapped In The Upstate - Inman [prev. Great Escapes Inman]Escape roomIRLWHAT. A. BLAST. Reveals around every corner. Excellent puzzle flow and story/environment driven unique puzzle design. I was smiling the entire time eager to solve the next puzzle while I was mid-solve on something else. Kept us moving and saying woah time after time! This is what an “escape room” is all about!! Great use of tech intertwined in most everything. Thank you Lauren, R.J. and the family for always putting so much love and care into experiences. ❤️
Willy Ganja and the Weed FactoryAmaze Games - Port CharlotteEscape roomIRLSuch a fun theme and excellent hosts. Thank you to Logan and Cameron for the incredible hospitality!!
Mystic ProjectMystic Corporation Escape roomIRLOne of the actors in the experience put blood on our face which eventually stained our clothing when maneuvering though the experience. We wish this had a warning so we wore different clothing. The communication system through walkie talkie was very tedious and the finale contained an angle grinder that made us all feel very uncomfortable with the proximity of sparks to our face. Overall, the game play was okay. The entrance location had an on-theme prop that set up the story nice, but the cleanliness of the game and debrief space was not great. The maintenance of the game and its puzzles also need upkeep. Things were hard to read and a couple puzzles were broken or unusable.
SinisterLockholic Escape Room [prev. Lockbusters Escape Rooms]Escape roomIRLAs a BIG fan of the Sinister franchise this made me happy. Most of the puzzles were tied to moments from the films either through reference or direct story connection. The ‘film’ aspect of this franchise was adapted well into the story and I think the story was clear once the game was in motion and wrapped up well! I was very scared in this experience, but I have also been scared of Bughuul since seeing the original film!
Hide N SeekBraniac Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLI greatly appreciate the take on a Michael Myers inspired story. This became one of the standouts in Athens for story telling. An example of how to immerse guests into a story without making us read it. A very impactful finale that told us exactly how our story ended and in a very successful and showy way!
The NunVansa Escape RoomEscape roomIRLIt’s like living the movie. Flawless effects through great use of lighting and sound. The team is so friendly and working hard to perform every scare quickly and effectively! There are a lot of jump scares and grab moments that worked very well. Our actress that played sister Irene did a phenomenal job starting our story. Her facial expressions and ability to connect with us and draw us in immediately was top notch!
The MaidVansa Escape RoomEscape roomIRLWe didn’t originally have this game on our itinerary, but we had a cancellation and they were able to create a slot for us in order to play. This was SUCH a great puzzle room. Strong environments and room reveals. This is not a scary game!! The best art heist style game we have played to date and great break from scary experiences in Athens.
StigmataDark Maze Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLVery unique start for game! Didn’t even realize what was happening until after and it really caught me by surprise. Great moments for each player and strong ending!
03:15InsanityEscape roomIRLStrongest story telling experience that we have experienced in Athens and really unexpected ending. This felt very much like we were living a horror movie!
Evil InsideBloodlines Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLMultiple moments of terror while having beautiful cinematography in each show moment. The story was very clear and kept us interested throughout the entire game. The scenery and finishings of this experience were also elevated - detailing and dressing the expansive environment with props to create a totally immersive experience. 10/10.
ManifestoDark Vision ProjectEscape roomIRLVERY fun introduction and an interesting story translated through beautiful choreography!
The Litchver Woodland, Theory IIIBan Bang Theory Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLMy favorite introduction/reveal of a space I have ever experienced in an escape room. Wow.
Woman in BlackCoven Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThe puzzles and actions worked very well with the progression of the narrative. Lots of intense moments and theatrical wows from effects and choreography from the woman in black! One moment in particular was THE MOMENT of the game that will live rent free in my mind. Spectacular team behind this experience! Sound and lighting did wonders for driving us where we needed to be!
OmertaLast WishEscape roomIRLEverything flowed very well! We used less than half of the allotted play time, but still enjoyed the time that we solved. Definitely agree with other reviews that in city saturated with horror ‘experiences’ - this was a nicely structured puzzle room with very unique and satisfying solves!
Don't Take A BreathVerone Live Action Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLA highlight of our Greece trip. Stood out as an experience like no other. Less of an escape room due to how realistic it felt. Never let up on the suspense!! It continued to build while our team continuously mentioned how much fun this was!!
Παρεκκλήσι & Κατακόμβες [Chapel & Catacombs]Lockhill - Nea IoniaEscape roomIRLWhat an experience to kick off our trip to Athens. Incredible talent and such an expansive space. Our time was filled with moments of surprise, fear and challenge. A great well rounded experience!! Super talented team of performers that delivered their roles very well and gave additional moments with our team that we will cherish! The highlights of the experience!!! I only wish we could have debriefed with all of our hosts at the end. They were all so incredible and deserved a round of applause!👏
