Cool concept that unfortunately devolves rapidly into tedious “busywork”, flow that suffers tremendously due to weird, off-theme puzzles, and a fun factor that just isn’t there. The build is fine enough, it just feels noticeably bare bones compared to some of their other offerings. I found that a lot of the props were pretty worn and in need of some replacing or touch ups. Some props were sloppily reset as well. The biggest issue still lies in the fact most of these puzzles take WAY too long to complete, as they are mostly annoying time-sinks as opposed to challenges in logic. Too many time wasters. Too many unintuitive (and boring) puzzles. One in particular that requires organizing literally dozens upon dozens of vials that wastes at least 10-15+ minutes that could (or should) be spent doing other things to actually work toward the end goal. It could be really good if some of these puzzles didn’t take SO long to complete. They need serious revamping. If doing countless math problems, crossword puzzles and organizing an endless array of things sounds like your idea of a good time, you might be better off picking up a Sunday newspaper.
Clunky, tedious and (mostly) boring
Servicable, not great.

Many color based puzzles in very difficult lighting to identify what you’re seeing.

It was super fun and engaging. Definitely not a starter room but a good brain teaser for more experienced players. The facilitator was courteous and helpful. The facility was clean and inviting.

Room was fine. Some escape room chains are very very good while some just feel generic and this is one of them. Our GM was helpful, but some puzzles were just time wasters for no reasons. I wouldn’t go out of my way to play this game while the Tampa area has a lot of great games to offer.

I’m a science nerd so I always love the biology themed rooms. Some puzzles were very time consuming but loved it still and allowed is to split up and so different puzzles.
Not novel but one of the better “save the world” themes

This place is great. We have done almost all of their rooms. This room is fun and well thought out. You will need every minute. The puzzles are not overly complicated but still challenging. I would suggest you have at least 4 people.

Let me start by saying we have done almost every room here and the owner is absolutely amazing and one of the reason we returned and so glad we did because all of there rooms are amazing! This is the only room we didn’t get out of and I believe it is because we wasted a lot of time on one puzzle where we shouldn’t have. Over all great room
