Mind Factory agents have traced the entity known as Evo to an abandoned factory in Connecticut. And now Evo has a partner: Former White Horse Industries scientist Jane Ryan. Ryan is infected with a deadly supernatural entity known only as…The Spore. What are Evo and Ryan working on? Why are strange electrical disturbances and disappearances plaguing the town of Fairport? And why is Evo obsessed with something called Id? Dozens of questions remain unanswered, but one is most pressing of all: What is Bad Earth? Mind Factory – and the people of Fairport – need your help. Your mission may lead you into the darkest recesses of Evo’s past…or his future. Enter the factory. Recover The Invader’s Key. And, if at all possible, weaken the entity known as Id. Evo has grown stronger, and his powers threaten to open a doorway between a dark dimension and this one…

The room and setting are spectacular. I have played this room several times and enjoy it more every time I play it. The set design is bespoke and ultra-creative!

My first escape room in years- and way better than the one I had done before. The atmosphere and theme were fantastic. Very immersive, with terrific set pieces and high production values. The puzzles were engaging and the climax was a ton of fun to put together with my group. Dave was extremely friendly and accommodating, and we loved talking shop with him after the game. Can’t wait for the next room to be released! Thank you for the great experience!
Thank you so much. The third game (and continuation of our story) is inbound ASAP!

8.2/10 We are loving the story Mind Factory is taking us through with their rooms and Invasion only heightens our anticipation for what's to come. We highly recommend playing Breathless first if you can, as it sets the stage for the story that carries over into Invasion. However, if you're only able to play Invasion, you won't be disappointed. From the outset, Invasion impressed us with its immersive storytelling and expertly crafted puzzles. The room’s flow felt seamless, with each challenge feeling like a natural progression within the story. It was clear that a lot of thought had gone into the puzzle design, and everything just clicked during our experience. For us, Invasion ended up being the superior room compared to Breathless, though we thoroughly enjoyed both. One standout feature is a particularly well-designed prop in the room, which plays a significant role in the overarching narrative. The level of detail on this prop is remarkable, and it definitely added a layer of immersion to the experience. However, as much as we loved it, we felt it could have been more integrated throughout the room, rather than just sitting in the background. Given its importance to the story, we’d have liked to see it play a more active role. Overall, Invasion at Mind Factory is a fantastic adventure for any escape room enthusiast. We’re excited to see what the team has in store for their upcoming rooms, especially after speaking with Dave, the owner. His passion for escape rooms is infectious, and it’s clear that they’re dedicated to taking their experiences to the next level. We highly recommend checking out Invasion, and don’t forget to play Breathless if you can. We can’t wait for their third room!

Great design … innovative …and it ties into a storyline with Breathless the other escape room at MindFactory. I highly recommend this room both for its ingenuity and organizational detail.

One of the best escape rooms I’ve ever done! Part II from the Mind Factory universe, this game was darker than Breathless but in all the right ways. Complete it just in time with 5 others but it could have easily and comfortably accommodated more. Fantastic puzzles and a setting you have to experience to believe. If you haven’t tried Mind Factory yet, play Breathless first and then run invasion. Can’t wait to see what they put out next!

LOVED this room. Our favourite of the two rooms at Mind Factory. We were in town on a Tuesday - a day when Mind Factory wasn't usually open, but saw a note on the website encouraged us to email about the possibility of them opening for us. Dave, the owner, emailed back immediately and said he'd be happy to open just for us. When we arrived he was the perfect host - we couldn't have hoped for a better experience. Invasion is Pt.2 of a 2 part story and the highlight of our trip here. The puzzles, props, atmosphere and story line were all great. If you have time, I'd definitely recommend doing both Breathless & Invasion (in that order) in a single visit. We left feeling exhilarated and accomplished!
Yes
It's always cool to see customers play Breathless and Invasion back-to-back. We're glad you and your crew enjoyed the complete (so far) Mind Factory experience. Thanks, Count.
