Sherlock

What drew me to this room was its 3-player maximum. I found that quite intriguing; ideal for a party of 2. A Sherlock premise sounded promising. What surprised us the most was the physical size of the playing space. It made sense why the room is designed for not more than 3 players - any more would get claustrophobic. When it dawned on us that there wasn't going to be any additional "surprise" space, we tempered our expectations slightly. But then, we ended up enjoying the experience because the use of space was quite efficient and the variety of puzzles kept us engaged. This room can catch you off-guard. You may get a false sense of "I think this is an easy room", only to realize that a quarter of an hour has passed and you've just gotten started. Moreover, you are exposed to several puzzles/locks at once which makes the room seem non-linear. However, the gameplay is predominantly linear in the sense that you can only solve one puzzle at a time (although parts of another puzzle may become accessible at times). Observation is essential for this room. Our gamemaster was friendly and responsive over walkie-talkie during our game. One of the essential tools in the game wasn't working as expected. We appreciated that he paused our game time when he needed to come in to fix it. There was one puzzle that can feel a tad tedious to complete once you figure out what needs to be done (because of lot of visual noise). But overall, it was a fun room that's ideal for a group of 2!

This was a good little room. The max it holds is 3, which any more than that would be too much. The small space is utilized well. Seasoned escapers would probably find this room too easy, but we like doing all kinds, so we had a good time. We will be back to do the ones we haven’t done yet!

1st room we've done here. We liked it. The puzzles are good. We enjoyed it. Really best for a couple. Staff are nice and responsive if a clue is needed, but room is well done enough that you barely need them if you're experienced escape room person.

This is the second room we’ve done at Celebration, and we have loved both. This one was a bit easier for us than Laser. A few things about this room. It is kind of small. That is why they max out capacity at 3. It is also very serial, but still a lot of fun. The puzzles themselves were really fun and interesting. They were fairly low tech puzzles, but really unique. We did blow through this one quickly, but had a lot of fun. Still challenging, just would have liked a little more to it. Staff is awesome and friendly. Highly recommend.
