Mind Trap

Good room! Definitely linear and a bit simple but still a ton of fun with new player.

A fun game from the Great Escape. We actually set the record of 27:04! We really liked the transition between rooms and the end of the game. One puzzle really got our hands wet, though with blood or water I won’t say ;)

TL;DR: It was alright, but the ending was pretty bad. The atmosphere was good. Not quite as good as some of their other rooms but still better than the superhero room. It wasn’t scary like other comments have mentioned, but the design is a little spooky. Gameplay is where I had some ups and downs. The puzzles were pretty alright. Pretty standard stuff for the most part. One puzzle we all agreed was pretty fun even if it was simple. Although I didn’t like how the clues to solve it literally spelled out what to do, it was still a cool trick nonetheless. One puzzle we actually solved by accident, which was funny, but when they said how you were supposed to get the answer I thought it was a little far fetched. Unfortunately the ending is what really brought the experience down for me. It was one of the most anticlimactic endings I’ve had in an escape room, and it didn’t really make sense in context of the whole story of the room. It felt like a cheap trick. It didn’t help that the final step after that didn’t even end up working. Overall we still had a good time. It definitely was not a super hard room overall, though it did have a tough puzzle or two.

The room was pretty fun for us, lots of locks and some parts required manual triggering but overall the room was a great experience.

I would not say it was scary, but certainly was macabre. The set decorations were well done. The puzzles though fun, were mostly based on locks and combinations. Overall it was enjoyable, and would recommend it.

Not overly complicated. There were 2 of us and we had about 18 mins to spare. A couple things didn’t work exactly right but the game master helped us sort it out. This room might not be great if you have a large group.

Loved this room. It's the right amount of scary that isn't too distrracting.

I love this room. It has some really clever puzzles, it's spooky and there are some jump scares but the scares aren't so distracting that it takes you out of the game, and the room is very immersive. The staff here are always so amazing and nice!

My husband and I really enjoyed this escape room. The set design, theme, and atmosphere are all great. It gives off creepy vibes and has one decent jump scare but apart from that nothing actually scary. We were able to escape with 22 minutes remaining with just the two of us (and we were feeling a bit rusty beforehand) so I would say it’s definitely an easier room, but a lot of fun. There are a few really cool reveals & fun, on theme puzzles. Something I want to point out is that there was no excessive reading or big jumps in logic like a lot of escape rooms seem to have. We only asked for one hint and I think if we would have thought about it a little longer we probably wouldn’t have needed it as we were already halfway there. So, in general this room flowed really well & I would recommend it for those that are newer to escape rooms or those that just want to do a fun, easy room.
