Professor X's LabEscape Time BegumpetEscape roomIRLThis was fun. Played alone. Collecting glasses, the attachments from an underground tunnel, figuring out the last twist puzzle was smart. I was given a bonus time of 10 minutes. As usual, these games are very straightforward and simple. Definitely not extreme as they label it.
Sherlock's Last CaseEscape Time BegumpetEscape roomIRLThe game is pretty easy. I played alone. Still had 10-15 mins left. I could claim a bonus time with the push of a button via a code. But it’s very straightforward. There’s no out of the box thinking to be honest, but thats alright. Some things were hidden well so I think with a larger group this can easily be done quicker. Only 2 rooms and a small secret room so it’s pretty chill.
Lockout 2 - The Death SentenceMystery Rooms Hyderabad- GachibowliEscape roomIRLI don’t know what’s with these escape rooms being so dark but I wasn’t expecting this to be this…uncomfortable. I went with 1 person and I understand that we’re split into 2 cells but communicating with each other via the small jar by sticking your head out…just not it. The worst part? You’re supposed to use a rope/wire and somehow use it to pull levers and stretch your arm out the cell for to activate the card reader. I dont know whats their definition of “physical” but I’m not really a fan of it. Some puzzles also didn’t make a lot of sense too for example the chess one and why is it called “bundles” like “number of bundles”. The typewriter was bad quality and you had to PRESS it hard.
Lockout - A Prison Break ChallengeMystery Rooms Hyderabad - Jubilee HillsEscape roomIRLDecent room. One of the rooms is a tunnel and dark so felt a bit claustrophobic as that didn’t have a small fan or AC. One weird thing (spoilers alert): The keys from opposite the mirror are really hard to get from the jail cell. They give you a pipe which is short and it has a white suction and you’re supposed to put your hands through the jail bars and get the keys somehow. Maybe put a magnet inside? They also had a broken pencil and I kept ringing the bell but nobody answered. They did give me time for it
The Kon of Kohinoor - A Mission ImpossibleMystery Rooms Hyderabad - Jubilee HillsEscape roomIRLThis was easy. It took a bit longer because of some lasers and their deactivation. That was so weird and dark. These are very dark rooms. I usually play alone but they said I can’t so they sent one of their new joiners who hadn’t played this before, and he helped me with the torch as it was badly needed. The lock on the math room opened by pure luck after figuring out the first digit, maybe they didn’t reset it well? 3.5/5. They claim its a hard room but its very easy.
