Clue

Great room for larger groups or for kids! Super fun twist on the board game! Definitely in my top 5 favorites

Best one for this location

We love the 80s Clue movie with Tim Curry and enjoyed playing the board game as kids, and were curious to see how well the Clue room at Breakout Games would live up to the source material. Like the game, our goal was to find out who, with what, and where. The room had a touch screen that showcased all the choices that we used to eliminate possibilities along the way - this bit of tech was essential in keeping up with the goal and immersing us in the game. They incorporated the potential murder weapons so well into the game play, and since we're used to seeing things like candlesticks and ropes in escape rooms, it didn't dawn on me immediately the significance of why they were in this particular room. The infamous color-coded characters of the game were mentioned throughout, and it felt like they were just a room away from us. The only misstep was a color coded puzzle where several of the colors were hard to distinguish and we spent a lot longer on that puzzle than was needed as a result.

Very fun and well themed room! Not the most difficult room ever but great for younger players and puzzles all make logical sense.

This might be the only Breakout room I actually would play again. The set definitely makes you feel like you’re in Clue trying to figure out the suspect, location, and weapon. The puzzles were hysterical, immersive and satisfying to solve. We had a bigger group of people (8), but only 3 of us were experienced, so there was a fair amount of work divided among all of us. If Breakout continues to make rooms like this in the future, I might have to come back again! 10/10!

Designed by Hasbro, Clue is based on the board game by the same name. It's very cleverly designed, and there were certain parts of the experience that made it feel like there were things actively happening just beyond the walls of the room, which was very exciting. It was overall very immersive, challenging, and left me wondering how it was put together.

It was a fine crossover between an escape and a game. Many automatic items didn't work properly. We apparently had to place objects in certain locations, but there was no real indication that was necessary. It was a bit light on puzzles, we got out with 11 minutes to spare.

This was a really disengaging room. While it was well decorated and on theme, and was just boring. The puzzles seemed very linear so we weren't able to work on separate puzzles at one time. Even after getting our answer to the room, we didn't feel like it was 100% correct. It was quite ambiguous not from difficulty but by design. The GM was not engaging either.

I know. I’m shocked too. I’m giving a “♥️" /love to a Breakout game, a company usually with average-at-best rooms, but this is a great one! more than anything else, it was fun! Some thing that a lot of whodunit escape rooms fail in is that the focus is on the puzzles, less so on the process of elimination. And then after the game is over anyways, it’s still kind of a stretch to figure out who did it. Not here, as the puzzles truly lead to eliminating suspects. The set design was great, truly having a blast in multiple rooms, especially the kitchen, where one goal had us send dirty plates and food down the dumbwaiter to the dishwasher! I just recall feeling how much FUN I had doing this which also succeeded in being an escape room. Well done!

Had a blast here- theme was so much fun, and puzzles challenging but not super hard. Liked all the tech elements.
