Bring your glasses - this requires some 20/10 vision in the dark to solve things! BUT, if you can get through the first part of this game, it's quite good. Besides a few logic leaps and an absolute nonsensical ending, there was some fun stuff here. Huddys Gainesville is much, much better, however. Jacob's Nightmare was excellent.

This game was a let down for us. We were expecting more of a detective story, but it was overly focused on the gore aspects, sacrificing gameplay. It did not flow well, was poorly lit, and the ending made no sense. Many of the puzzles were a bizarre leap in logic, particularly in the last room. Cannot recommend this one.
Not the best mix of puzzles, and several made no logical sense, even after the clues. The ending in particular was a real head-scratcher--no clear reason for it to happen, and then things just end. Also, could have used some more explanation and build up from the game master before entering the room.
A very gory theme. To support the atmosphere it was of course dimly lit, but so much so, it really made the gameplay difficult.
Staff was very friendly, but clearly understaffed. She seemed to be working 3 groups at the same time, and often swapping between customers in the very small 'lobby'. We weren't sure what was going on for quite a while after our arrival.

As mentioned, pretty much standard horror room fare, with heavy emphasis on gore. Also, the ending was one of the worst we have seen in an escape room.
Hard
Many were the standard escape room puzzle types, but there were a few that required leaps in logic that made little sense, and we would never have guessed without a hint.

LOTS of lock puzzles

We had 5 and was way too crowded

More gory than scary, no jump scares

The speakers to communicate with the game master was intermittent at best; we had to have her repeat clues multiple times to hear/understand her

Two areas that required getting low on your back; a couple of team members had to be walked around outside the game room to get to the final act because of inability to crouch low enough
Would not recommend for anyone with mobility or vision issues

Overall I had a great time. The ending was a bit anticlimactic but it didn’t deter from the overall experience. Game was on the easier side for experienced players but puzzles were still fun to solve and were not overly complicated like some places try to do.
Puzzles were simple but a lot of fun! I prefer easier puzzles that flow well compared to difficult long winded puzzles.
Jacob was nice.

Typical murderer, you’re in his lair type of vibe.

Seems like old versions of the game had tech puzzles that were turned into lock based puzzles since mag locks were still on boxes that had number locks. I prefer lock puzzles anyway so I wasn’t upset!

The game master was very thoughtful and extremely professional however, there were certain things in her briefing that she should’ve mentioned to help have a better flow of the game. Overall, though she just needs to grow her knowledge of the games before anything else, also there was a certain, clue that she gave us backwards and every time she would give us a clue, she would second-guess herself, wasted a few minutes out of our time, even though we made it. Besides that the ending of the game didn’t make sense there was no indication that we had one or an ending to the website to catch the serial killer. However, there was no indication of overall, they should fix the end of the game and the game master should know her games better.
Some things that it makes sense and the flow of the game was choppy
Well designed however there were some hazards like loose nails and wires, the wires weren’t just for decoration they had function too
GM was very friendly, super sweet
Story was well done overall. Had some kinks to work out though

Most of the technological aspects didn’t work. Things opened before we solved them. The story didn’t make sense. It was short and the puzzles were too simple. I didn’t get the ending

So the game didn’t really make much sense. The cool scary feel was nice for beginners but I don’t recommend for experienced also items were very finicky and didn’t work plus we received items that weren’t meant for us yet.

WOW! We felt like we were doing a game inside a Halloween Horror Nights haunt, gorgeously themed, best horror game we've done in Florida! So Fun, can we do it twice?!
