The Blind Tiger SpeakeasyExpedition EscapeEscape roomIRLVery fun! I'd recommend 4-5 people for this room. We experienced one finnicky sensor, but otherwise, everything worked perfectly. Everything flowed well and matched the theme.
The Soul Collector - CLOSEDCaptured LV Escape Room - AllentownEscape roomIRLGreat theming. Lots of puzzles, flowed well. Gave everyone in our group a chance to shine!
Murder Of 89Captured LV Escape Room - AllentownEscape roomIRLNot the most *flashy* room out there, but very unique! My parents loved all the 80s references.
SpellboundEscapeTime Escape Rooms - AnnapolisEscape roomIRLSolid room! Not super high tech, but still had some really good puzzles. My jaw was never on the floor, but still super satisfying to solve!
High Noon in the Old WestTime To Escape - Downtown AtlantaEscape roomIRLFun room. There is a LOT to do. Our GM was hilarious and attentive. Thanks, Atlanta!
Dark Heart of the Hotel - Chapter 2303 Escape - Denver Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis room was tough in a really good way. I did it with my fiancé, it was his 5 or 6th room, my 16th. With just the two of us, it was a LOT of puzzles. The room decor was awesome. It was scary, but no jump scares or anything like that. Can't wait for when room 3 finally comes out :)
Frost Base ZRabbit Hole Recreation ServicesEscape roomIRLLoved all the puzzles and special effects! GM was very attentive and pointed us in the right direction. We always had enough tasks available simultaneously that our entire group of 5 was kept busy and engaged. Thanks to the staff for helping my partner surprise propose to me here!
Puzzler's Lair - CLOSEDTenletters Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis was a great escape room for having such a small footprint. Our GM happened to be the guy who designed the room, which was super cool. He was so friendly and attentive before, during, and after the game. The hints we got from the folders in the room were the perfect amount of guidance without handing us the answers.
The HeistThe Escape Game - King of PrussiaEscape roomIRLI think this room is tougher than Prison Break. The first room was a bit of a pinch-point for us. We were stuck for a hot second. Our game master was awesome and helped us keep moving along. There were lots of great effects and ":O" moments.
The Haunted Mine [prev. Mineshaft]HD Escape Rooms - WestminsterEscape roomIRLIn general, my group found the room way too dark -- we had a couple of LED lanterns, but they were not bright enough to solve many of the puzzles, some of which had faded/rubbed-off markings that could have used some touching up. We had six in our group, and we spent most of our time stuck in the first room, which was quite small (and very hot) for a group our size. Their website says that this room has a 60% success rate, but after we lost with about one-third of the puzzles unsolved, the GM told us we did the best she saw all weekend (we were there Sunday evening). She said that most groups don't even make it past the first room. Everyone in our group had done multiple escape rooms previously, and we found the puzzles to be generally unintuitive. While I appreciate an escape room business wanting to have a challenging room, we found The Haunted Mine to just be frustrating.
Room 303 - Chapter 1303 Escape - Denver Escape RoomEscape roomIRLTough but great! We loved the story and can't wait to come back for the second chapter.
Sherwood ForestEscape Manor - TorontoEscape roomIRLThe room was cool, but the group I was with (people I met at an academic conference) brute-forced some of the puzzles, so that was lame. But definitely not the room's fault so.
Prison BreakThe Escape Game - HonoluluEscape roomIRLincredible room -- the difficulty (in my opinion) comes from the sheer volume of puzzles. there are lots of puzzles with lots of pieces going on.
Moriarty's Gameroom: The Hunt is Afoot! - CLOSEDThe Great Escape Room - ProvidenceEscape roomIRLThere was something really satisfying about digging through the room looking for pieces LOL
The Virus - CLOSEDCaptured in CoventryEscape roomIRLI did this room with my dad, a friend of mine, and many third graders for my younger sibling's birthday. We somehow made it out despite the little children moving things non-stop.
