Diamond Heist

Felt like a well designed room. Second room/site I’ve done of the Escape Room Pittsburgh and both of the rooms I’ve done with them so far seem to do a great job of some local callouts that you don’t get to see as much in chain escape room companies. In terms of the puzzle, nice semi linear puzzle with a nice variety of puzzle types including a couple red herrings (with bonus points to details that acknowledge as much in a way) found it easy for my team of four to rotate around a bit working as partners helping keep track of the details that while not always needed to solve a puzzle, can make it a bit easier to solve and helped us finish the room without any hints.

This was a good game. There seemed to be a few props that didn’t seem to work correctly, it felt like eventually the GM just overrode them for us. Construction of the game was ok to good…nothing incredible but nothing terrible either.

This room met and exceeded my expectations of Escape Rooms. The set was well done but did have a homemade feel. Not a bad thing but different than the big franchise rooms. The puzzles were well done and easy enough to work through. Definitely recommend this company and this room specifically.

This was, without a doubt, my least favorite escape room experience. I came with my parents to have a fun time and was frustrated by the puzzle design and the worn down state of the room. However, the most frustrating part was the fact that the Game Masters for this location did not make exceptions for my parents who have poor eyesight. During the intro speech my Mom asked about any sections of the room that may be dark and asked if they offered any flashlights. The Game Master told us no and that we wouldn’t need it. I understand having a No Phone policy due to spoilers, but it was extremely frustrating when my dad was chastised for using his phone’s flashlight in a dark area. Additionally, the marker was extremely faint and frustrating to use for one of the puzzles. After mentioning it to the Game Master they said “Oh, that was pretty bad.” We were never offered an apology for this inconvenience which cost us time or for the yelling at my Dad for using his phone’s flashlight. Save your money and choose a different Escape Room company who cares about their guests!

Was an okay game. Lots of dead space. But okay game

This room was very fun. It was pretty difficult so I would recommend getting at least 5 people together to do this one. Not all the puzzles were equally interesting, but they were consistent in difficulty for the most part. Overall, very cool room, would recommend
