Though I’ve done 30+ escape rooms, this was my first time doing a *horror* escape room, and it well surpassed expectations. The set design was immersive, spooky, and massive in scale. Rather than feeling like we were moving from one small room to another, it felt like we were exploring a nightmare space that continued to grow as we roamed.
Along with the incredible atmosphere and set design, the puzzles were creative and high tech, and the mechanisms they used were well designed to build tension and give each party member a unique experience of the terror. We did this as a pair of 2 so we could experience all of the room, but 3 or 4 people would also have a thrilling experience.
The game master (Brian) was extremely impressive as well! Huge kudos to him for making our experience so stellar with his acting, guidance, and even building up the tension beforehand via WhatsApp. Will definitely be checking out Krematorium (upcoming room) when I’m back in town.
The gameplay was immersive, fun, and delightfully scary.
Wow! I wanted to spend longer admiring the set but I was also afraid to stand still for too long 😅 I appreciated that we got a walkthrough afterwards
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
I won’t say too much about this for risk of spoilers, but the space was unique and so was the way it was used.
The puzzles were not too hard, though of course they were made harder by the tension
Could be done with 2, though the price is steep.
Physically active
Somewhat
Accessibility
There are stairs and ramps.
The opening is through a creepy garage which was perfect.
