Operation Arctic Storm: The Final Meltdown

A funny and well-executed concept. The creative environment and varied puzzles keep things engaging.

Great theming and great puzzles

Fantastic room Such a fun theme The flow was perfect. The puzzles all very fair and on theme We finished with four adult sized humans which felt like the right number Highly recommend the room It has a live actor which really added to the fun and immersion

Love this room so much! One of the best escape room I've ever done. Very immersive, huge room. The actors is very fun to interact with. Pretty physically demanding (crawling, climbing, strais, etc) which i liked. Very fun room

Did this room for my Birthday. First time at this location and had a great time! Our GM Alex was friendly and helpful and gave nudges without being pushy. And the rooms are cool and have multiple rooms inside them! And there’s a cool hill you get to slide/climb down. Very immersive and totally fun. Would definitely recommend 👍🏻

This is the most physical of the TEV rooms, with some climbing and crawling without any way to bypass it. It’ll be fine for most people, but I wouldn’t bring my 73 year old Mom to this one. Some of the spaces are pretty compact too, so I’d recommend a group of 3 players. This would be a great room for novice players, since most of the puzzles are on the easier side and the set is fun, physical, and immersive. Just keep in mind that the goal of this room is to escape the Arctic research base. When the GM told us that we were biologists during the intro, my mind immediately jumped to an Abominable Snowman theme, or John Carpenter’s “The Thing.” It’s not that kinda room, so I set myself up for a slight disappointment 😆

So much detail went into this room! Loved all the puzzles and the atmosphere. You definitely have to have your gym shoes on. I know it was because it was arctic theme, but every escape room should match this level of AC. 🤪

This was a solid room, even though it is completely lock-driven-- virtually every puzzle yielded a word for a wordlock, a numeric lock combo, or a physical key. The puzzles themselves were nicely varied, well-themed to the environment, and plentiful. The game takes you through quite a few spaces, and while the set dressing is rather spartan, it works within the arctic research station setting. I'll note that the slide-- which you're told about before you start-- is NOT slippery at all and really not possible to "slide" down-- use the provided rope instead. Our team of three enjoyed it, finishing with no hints with almost 25 minutes to spare (out of 90).

This was our third room at Escape Ventures and it was fantastic. The game masters here are the best and contribute to the immersive experience. In this 90 minute room, we were very impressed at the size/scale of the place- so many different rooms in just one game! Highly recommend.
