The Timekeeper's Trapped!
Escape Factor
Escape room
IRL
Nice room. I’d definitely recommend. Pretty unique puzzles and the story and set fit together well. My main complaint would be that a lot of the locks are the same type so when you solve a puzzle it’s not necessarily obvious which lock that corresponds to. Also Jay was a very friendly game master. She was on top of giving us nudges.
The Alchemist

Top notch room. Definitely worth playing. The set design is extremely impressive. The puzzles were novel though not super hard so I think you're coming more for the wow factor of the set. That said, you should come for the wow factor of the set.

Molly's Game
Down the Hatch

Excellent, excellent escape room. The set is phenomenal, the story is interesting, the puzzles are challenging and novel without being frustrating. You probably already know this but you should visit this room.
Soup Du Jour

Amazing room. Excellent scenery and varied puzzles. Super engaging and quite hard with two people
Invasion
60 to Escape - Milwaukee
Escape room
IRL
This is a good room that’s probably worth doing if you’re in the area (but it’s not so good that I’d travel for it). The set is immersive and the puzzles were pretty good. They said this is the hardest room but we found the puzzles more straightforward than the pirate room. That said, I’ve been to plenty of other rooms where the story, puzzles, and set came together better. One thing that’s kind of obnoxious about this company is that they upsell you on getting unlimited hints (versus the built-in 6). We ended up only needing 4 but paid the extra just in case. It feels nickel-and-dimey to charge $15 for more hints.
Pirates Curse
60 to Escape - Milwaukee
Escape room
IRL
Went into this with reasonably high expectations based on the reviews but I’d say it was just okay. The set is good and the puzzles are fairly novel but there were a bunch of somewhat random leaps of logic and we didn’t think it fit together all that well. They have bonus puzzles, which is kind of a nice mechanism to give you more to do if you finish the room early. Unfortunately it also has the effect of leaving you slightly disappointed even if you do escape.
The Anomaly
The Other Tales Escape Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Not the most immersive room but they really made use of a small space. Lots of puzzles, interesting and neither too easy nor hard. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area!
Timeliner: Train Through Time
The Escape Game - New York
Escape room
IRL
Decent room. The puzzles were reasonably novel. Story and environment weren’t particularly amazing but if you’re around and have already done their other rooms, I’d tack this one on.
Ghost Light
MyssTic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Excellent scenery and novel puzzles but a couple of the puzzles felt more unintuitive than pleasantly challenging. In any case, definitely worth a visit (along with their other room)
The Observatory
The Gate Escape
Escape room
IRL
Quite a nice room. Lots of puzzles with unique mechanisms and they made good use of the physical space. There were some puzzles that felt a little frustratingly arbitrary but overall I’d recommend a visit.
