The Vanishing Act

Vanishing act was solid, and a game I enjoyed alot, but it did feel just a bit over-hyped. Compared to Storykeeper (Locurio's second room) you can plainly see how their style has evolved and refined itself over time. Vanishing Act had great non-linear puzzling, and some cool and unique puzzles, but was lacking a wow moment that I feel is important, especially in magic rooms (the prestige, if you will). Still, it is absolutely worth the visit if you are in the area, and you'll be sure the enjoy your 70 minutes finding Nox's secret!

First, our GM was wonderful. All the staff are great. We really liked the story. The set design was pretty good (nothing like Storykeeper, though). While we really like many of the puzzles in this game, for a two-person team a few of the puzzles take too much time. We understood and solved the puzzles but it takes time to work through it all. It is suggested to have 6+ players, but I think the room is a bit small for that. I feel the ideal number of players would be four. We needed a few extra minutes and the help of a third person (our GM) to finish. I suggest you only play this with two people if you absolutely cannot find more to join your team. I am very thankful, however, that the owners of Locurio allow two players to play their games. That is fantastic.

The larger of Locurio’s two in-person rooms. Puzzles well integrated and very immersive. Great room for a group of 6. Heads up since it was a little surprising to me, the theme suddenly gets creepy midway.

This was my first room with Locurio and I have to say it was awesome! The theme of the room was pretty immersive, especially with the live actor. I won’t say any spoilers but the second half of the puzzles definitely changed the vibe and had me hooked! It’s on the harder side of escape rooms in regard to the puzzles, but none were frustrating or confusing, it all made sense. Highly recommend!

Only one other escape room company even competes in the same stratosphere as Locurio (Exit Games in Sarasota), and this room is no exception. Best of the best, but will also make every other room you do a disappointment in comparison.

What an amazingly fun room with great puzzles and surprises. Locurio is a pinnacle of escape games!

Great themed puzzles, live actors that add to the immersive experience, and a good variety of puzzles for newbies and enthusiasts. Great props and gamemaster!

A small gem of a room. Lots of puzzles, well executed. The final scene was particularly fun to execute.

A great first experience:)

BEST MAGICIAN THEMED GAME EVER! Being a magician and also co-owning a magic themed escape room myself, I appreciated the stunning amount of detail and level of immersion that Locurio put into their TVA game. From the immersive start to the interactive gamemaster to the unique hint system to the what-the-heck behind-the-curtain story, this game is ASTOUNDING. My wife and I played with just our group of two and the hosts made our experiences so memorable. I’ll never forget the experience there, with all the cool puzzles, engaging narrative, real magician props, thematic elements, dramatic reveals, etc. Love this room!!!
