Merlin's Legacy

A very fun room with great sets, smells, and immersive elements! In comparison to other wizard themed rooms, nothing is reliant on Harry Potter or lord of the rings references, but rather a new tale on old Merlin folklore. Very refreshing to see a magic themed room not try to be non copyrighted Harry Potter. The interactive puzzles are very fun, almost no locks throughout the whole experience! Some puzzles were a little hard to grasp at first, for a linear room that can pose a progression issue but one that makes the rest of the puzzle solving feel more worthwhile. One downside is there is only one screen throughout the whole room, with a colorful background, making it hard to see the clues written on the screen that Merlin does not read aloud, and very hard to see since there is no alert tone for written clues. A plain black background would fix this issue, and our game guide commented how the screen would be only in this spot fixing any issues of not seeing a screen later on in the adventure. Overall very fun for all ages with some amazing sets and puzzles!

60 To Escape sets a high bar and this room is no exception. I brought a first time player, someone who has done 3 rooms prior, and myself (200+ rooms) and everyone found it to be extremely engaging with plenty of surprises. The scenic quality is top notch. I especially loved all the lighting cues during the narrative portions of the experience, most notably during the opening exposition. The puzzle flow was mostly smooth and intuitive, though there is one extremely long and tedious puzzle that brought the game to a grinding halt and far outstayed it's welcome. It also delivers a fantastic finale, something so many rooms fail at.

The theming and immersion were fantastic, as I've come to expect from 60 To Escape. We had a good time, but there were a few puzzles that needed hints, and I don't think we would have come to the realizations ourselves. One that had a very difficult to find item. It was also very linear, meaning when we got to those standstills, the whole group was stopped. I would recommend for sure, but not my favorite room from this location.

set dressing and atmosphere was very fun and interesting, the flow was very linear and the ending felt like it came up pretty quick but overall a very fun and magical feeling room.

One of the best venues in the midwest! A very fun and immersive room with some unique puzzles and a fantastic ending!

Can I just say what a breath of fresh air it is to have a magic wizard-themed room that is NOT knockoff Harry Potter? I adored this room, the storytelling, the lighting and sound effects, and the creature designs! The final area was literally breathtaking! My only minus about it was that the final puzzle literally did not work for us, and we ended up doing it multiple times before asking for a hint, which then confirmed that we had it exactly right the first time. Shruuuug. A very fun time otherwise!

Super immersive room with high quality props.

Fantastic room! The puzzles were logical, fun, varied, and tactile. The set was super engaging and well-built. The combination of a good storyline, an amazing set, and good puzzles made this room very immersive and so enjoyable!

Another super immersive, very cool room from this company. Really nice props and some pretty challenging puzzles.
