It was a little bit lock heavy, but still very atmospheric. Nothing groundbreaking in the way of new puzzles, but what they did, they did well and with clever twists. We enjoyed it and plan to go back to do the rest of their rooms some day
The GM and the staff were great!

My wife has mobility issues but they provided a chair. There is no climbing or crawling.

Not my favorite escape room. Our group (of 3) wasted about 10 minutes total on the physical puzzle which wasn't ideal for an escape room. A few of the locks could be tightened and a few puzzles could be touched up to make it easier to see. Otherwise the game flowed pretty well. Overall it was a decent room!

First Gen room (locks only) and it was very linear but still a decent room! Staff was friendly and helpful.

This room is pretty basic and some puzzles seemed designed just to take a long time to solve, but arenβt necessarily complicated. The set design is very basic and some of the puzzles were pretty creative. Play is somewhat linear, but without a true story. Other puzzles seemed completely disconnected (get a 5-digit number? Try it on every lock in the room.) Some puzzles didnβt make sense but we were still able to figure out the solution for word locks. Could remove a puzzle or two and reduce this to 60 min. I donβt think it would be possible to get through this without hints or nudges. Very pricey.
Set design was limited: mostly murals on the walls with limited props and decor.

Our last stop at Escape Effect was one that did not blow us as way still offered a good time. Great game for those well versed in Greek Mythology (but by no means is it needed to complete the game)! For a 90 minute experience there is actually not too many puzzles but the ones that are there definitely can fill the time. We were warned that there was a lot of math hereβ¦there was a good portion of it but mostly simple so no need to fret there :) The set of the game was solid! There was a decent use of space and the theme carried from room to room. Our biggest problem with this room was certain puzzles for a variety of reasons ranging from materials used to solve the puzzle, clarity of solutions and busy work. Though apart from those few we found the game flowed pretty well and would definitely work well with a group of three to four players. Overall a decent trip to round out our time with Escape Effect! Off to the next one :)

This was a pretty standard lock and key room with many solves for codes to unlock locks. That being said, the room was enjoyable and the game progression flowed pretty smoothly. No surprises here but 90 minutes of solid gameplay.
Nothing novel but good flow and some challenging puzzles.
Sets and props were good quality but nothing elaborate.
Staff was great.

Other than the 90 minute game time, nothing really new here.
Elements were well integrated with the theme even if nothing was unique or new.

No high tech features in this room. Everything was mechanical.

We played successfully with two but I think four would be best. It's a large rooms with many locks and puzzles to solve.

Not much here for smaller kids. Some knowledge of greek mythology or roman numerals might help.

Our GM was not very helpful. Anytime we asked for a hint, they would just ask if we had a specific question and not help us progress through the room. The theme of this room was cool but a lot of the puzzles were extremely tasked based which makes it difficult for smaller groups.

This is a solid room. Not difficult, but there is plenty to do, and not every puzzle is solvable in the immediate area where you find it (which I like β nonlinearity is fun). Everything is well made and all the locks are in good working order. It is a low-tech game (puzzles give you codes which open locks) with a good variety of puzzle types. I enjoyed the puzzles and the set design; it is an older-style room but well made. I liked the finale puzzle a lot but I can imagine that it is probably somewhat divisive in terms of how people feel about it. Recommended.
