Great room, very well done and consistent with its plot all the way through. Easy-ish, especially relative to their other rooms. Puzzles were almost perfectly within theme and not a constant stream of locks that utterly lack verisimilitude (one of their other rooms suffers from this). If you’ve done their other rooms, you might share our experience at the end of it when the host meets us at the open door - “oh, that’s it?”. Their rooms are expansive with a lot of steps to work through, and this one is just more relaxed and endearing.
Gameplay
Definitely a moderate-easy room, smaller and fewer puzzles but less dependent on locks which was nice.
Atmosphere
Extremely well made and immersive, right on theme all the way through.
Customer service
GM was immensely courteous, friendly and accommodating.

Nice mechanics with some well done tech accompanying. Explosions! (Not overwhelming or too loud)

This is a good room that has a nice twist in the storyline, which I always enjoy. The puzzling is straightforward (took 34 minutes of 70), but it flowed well and was non-linear. Maybe only bring 2-3 people if you have some experience

I like the story. The puzzles were moderate- to high-difficulty. The room was spacious enough for 6 people. There were lots of props and the room felt immersive. There were also a few red herrings.

We are seasoned escapers, but had not tried any of Sure Lock's (love the name) rooms yet. We chose the Abandoned Mineshaft and our family of 2 adults and 2 teens had a great time. Our game master was just the right amount of helpful without giving too much away, and we escaped with just a couple of minutes to go. The puzzles were very clever, and I appreciated that each item was used just once, and that there were no intentional red herrings to put you on the wrong track. All their rooms are longer than typical (70-110 minutes) which is also cool. It was the kind of escape room that you find yourself talking about afterwards and re-living with a smile on your face. Definitely worth checking out whether this would be your first or your twentieth. I can't wait to do more of their rooms!
Gameplay
Yes, there was enough to do for the four of us and I like that the items were each only used once.
Atmosphere
Nicely done though very dark. They gave us lanterns, but we had to also used cellphone flashlights.
Customer service
Yes, the GM was very friendly and fun to talk to as we waited for our turn to start the room.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
There were a few puzzles that I had not encountered before and had me thinking "now how do you do this?" Very satisfying to figure those out.
Story
Fairly well. I am not sure I got the connection between the first and second rooms, but I may have missed something in the backstory.
Difficulty
Medium
Maybe between medium and hard when 2 of your 4 players are teens, but if it had been all adults, I bet it would have felt more medium.

It was a very fun room with an interesting twist! Definitely not what I expected at first! Some of the puzzles were harder than they seemed also but overall we had a great time!

This was a fun experience. The room is good, not extremely special but good enough to enjoy some time with friends

Great room! Did it with a group of two. Puzzles are non linear so if you have a bigger group people can stay busy. Theme was awesome and fun. GM Grace was attentive and set up the story for the room well. Puzzles are a nice variety and not repetitive at all.
