Area 51

This was super fun. Theming was cool as well. The puzzles were pretty straightforward but very enjoyable. Chris was a fantastic game master!

Fun room, some good puzzles, a lot of dependency on combination locks. Not as memorable as their Dragon Challenge room but still a good time.

Solid room. Clean layout. Good flow.

Fairly straight forward room. Not overly complicated puzzles but some of them required a little extra thought.

KJ was a great GM!

What a great theme and run to play! Highly recommended for over 12 years just based on technical abilities.

Creepy, spacey, funny, cool puzzles.

A pretty enjoyable and funny time, Area 51 is their most straightforward room with mostly linear progression, and serviceable set dressing/design. It isn’t super intuitive, but when it works, it works really well. There are some bumps on your journey though. Design wise there are some inspired choices and as you progress there’s a handful of very neat surprises. There’s a fair bit of visual storytelling and cute Easter eggs throughout so you’ll want to keep a keen eye for every bit of fun references sneakily on display. As you progress, you’ll also experience a few very cool puzzles, some we haven’t seen before, while others can tend to be pretty standard fare and a bit of a drag that hamper the flow of your enjoyment. It’s really up to you how much you like locks (it’s a room that does show its age because of it). But the inspired choices more than make up for it, and there’s a lot original stuff going on that at least makes it worth checking out. Unfortunately, we know Escape Goat closes later this month, as will this room along with their others. So if you’re interested and in the area, go sooner than later.

The staff at Escape Goat are always super sweet! It was delightful to see them again & do their other rooms now that we had a team of 4 as opposed to 2. We enjoyed Area 51. I appreciated the humor
