This is the second escape room I've done, the first with a group this large and this is one of the most impressive activities I've done so far. Everything from the set design, the scenario, the puzzle designs, and the wonderful employee that helped set the mood. I really felt like I was in an ancient tomb trying to solve a great mystery. I will definitely be going back to Hour to Midnight after this!

Immersive and fast paced game! Our game master, Andrew, was awesome and stayed in character when giving clues. Many effects and types of puzzles with high production value!

Had to bend and stoop, and move quickly back and forth between multiple rooms.

Thank you Horatio for absolutely playing the part of the character as you were giving us hints. You understood the assignment and made our experience that much better. Loved the immersive set design and puzzles. Everything had a purpose or reference in the room thank you for taking the time to elaborate and share with us the amount of thought that went into this room! Great room for 4-6, if you wanted to play with less than the minimum you can. But one of the rooms does require at least two people to do a puzzle.

I’ve done a lot of “ancient Egypt” themed rooms, including the Tomb of Anubis in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and this room still impressed me. It’s hard to be impressed when you’ve seen high quality production but what I will say is that this room delivered on the puzzles! We had a group of 4, 2 experienced enthusiasts and 2 new-ish to escape rooms and I’m glad that we all had a blast. There is a side quest that our game master, Horatio, shared that we could do. I highly recommend doing the side quests too for a more fulfilling experience. The puzzles are not always obvious but when you do get it, it makes sense how that solution came to be. Be prepared to get a little more active. There’s a lot of ground to cover. I do like that they listen to feedback and designed this room specifically to be more accessible. Whereas previous iterations leaned more heavily on reading comprehension, the puzzles in this room are challenging but accessible for everyone. At least, that’s what we heard from the actual designers of the room who spent their time talking to us about their latest rooms! Parking is relatively easy at this location because they have a dedicated parking lot. I wish we could do the other rooms too but we were pressed for time!

This was a really solid room! Its one I’d recommend enthusiast to do but its not a omg top 10 must do kinda room. It’s hard to be wow when you’ve done a lot. With that said, it was really enjoyable and the puzzles were fun. I thought the gm did a great job giving out hints. She stayed in character and gave hints that felt immersive and nudged us in the right direction without directly giving it away. The room was medium difficulty and we completed it with a group of 4. Id go back to do the other rooms.

Was a really fun experience! We played with a group of 6 and overall the room had good opportunities for team work. There were a few times when only one of two people could work on a puzzle and the rest of us were just waiting, but overall it was great. The last room had some awesome team work puzzles that was really fun with our group of 6, but also still doable with less. This escape room had some cool puzzles and really fun set design. Definitely felt like we were stuck in a tomb!

If I could give this more stars I would. We did the Pharaoh's Lost Relics with 3. My partner and I have done many rooms (20+) in many places, and this one was INCREDIBLE. BEST ROOM WE HAVE EVER DONE!!!! BRAVO Hour to Midnight, this was like being on a movie set. I loved the care and detail put into each puzzle, the artwork and mechanics were outstanding. And, our game master? This man was MASTERFUL, he was such a fantastic addition to the gameplay, as he was in character, and so funny! I could truly tell he is passionate about the rooms and about his job. Thanks again Horatio, we will be back for sure. We finished the 75 minute room with 10 seconds to spare, and what a ride it was. I love that their rooms are all working on a same set of characters and plot arcs, building onto the fun of doing more than one room. OH, also they are working on a new room to have ready for Halloween, its a pitch black experience, which sounds extra spooky and challenging. I can only sing praises of this place! Go check them out!!! TLDR: BEST ROOM WE'VE EVER DONE!
Really fun, outstanding puzzles, lots of thinking clues, rather than physical
Very immersive, fully felt like visiting an egyptian tomb, down to the smell of the canvas. Maybe less sand and spiders, but I think that's a positive XD
Horatio was fun, passionate, hilarious, his acting really added to the immersion of the game.
