Hands down the rudest escape room staff I've ever encountered bar none. Apparently, the owner of the business had dug through my Morty and saw that I left a negative review in the past. He then berated both of us for having given them a bad review for several minutes before the game had even started. I have never felt more unwelcome when paying for an activity and the owner and staff should honestly be ashamed. If they were so pissed off about a review we left two years ago, they should have just refunded the original booking. When I tried to give my phone to the staff member at the end to get a photo, she passive-aggressively told me that phones weren't allowed in the room and then proceeded to take the picture with her iPad instead. A mediocre room that should have been barely a thumbs up gets a strong thumbs down for the TERRIBLE experience. I hope the owner finds the smallest amount of humility and learns to stop being incredibly petty.

The first bit of this game was very good, but after you get into the second room, everything goes downhill very quickly. We were told this room was linear, and while it mostly is, it has a strange combination of linear and non-linear game design, which makes it quite jarring to play if you're experienced. It also breaks some escape game rules, such as using objects multiple times. Our GM was super nice, but very clearly wasn't paying attention, as he often gave us clues that were irrelevant or things that we had obviously already figured out. This room was really borderline between a thumbs up and a thumbs down. I'd actually recommend this as a game for enthusiasts to play, but only if you've run through all the other great games in the area first.

This game had promise, but ultimately feels quite disjointed and fighting itself in multiple places. Like another game that we did at this location, the strange mix of linear and non-linear elements really makes me think that this game wasn't designed from a top-down point of view. In multiple places, this room breaks the one-time use classic escape game rule, and does so in a relatively nonsensical manner. This escape room does one thing that the most frustrating rooms always do: use a bunch of locks of the exact same style and numeral type with no delineation between them. Prepare to have fun putting the same combination into six different locks. Overall, this game was on the edge between a thumbs up and a thumbs down, but our GM not paying attention and was giving us hints that weren't very useful was ultimately what made us give it a thumbs down. Worth doing if you're an enthusiast only and are looking for more rooms to do.

This game just didn’t play well. The set is beautiful and it clearly has so much potential, but some mediocre puzzles and the butchering of how the game of battleship actually works completely ruin the game. If the game had better puzzles and the game actually followed the regular rules of battleship it could be an excellent game. As it is, it’s a big thumbs down. 2/10. Also a warning: do not do this game with an of number of players. It will feel very unfair.
