Dark Lullaby

I should start by saying I hate jump scares and I’m a big chicken when it comes to horror. And also Dark Lullaby is one of the best immersive experiences I’ve ever had. It is for sure one of my top scary rooms of all time. How scary is it? It was a little more on the spooky side for us but there were enough intense moments to push the needle to scary. If you aren’t experienced with spooky rooms, you might be more scared. But there are also wonderful moments of lightheartedness. I trusted the live actors and enjoyed clowning around with one of them. I also felt safe solving the puzzles without feeling I would get overly scared. There are a few silly jump scares but nothing that threw off our puzzling. The finale is unforgettable! My partner who hates scary rooms loved this one and considered it her favorite of the Chimera Corp Saga trilogy. And yes, I highly recommend to play all 3 with this game sandwiched in-between the opener Castle Fluffendor and the finale Help Wanted. Even if you are a scaredy-cat like me, it is absolutely essential to play Dark Lullaby to understand the connecting throughline of the overall story. Even if you get easily scared like we do, I think it’s still worth it to grit your teeth and face your fears!

Room #2 in the series escaped!! This one did have a few scary parts as they say but so much fun. The game guides are fantastic!! We really enjoyed our time

My wife and I got a chance to do the now #22 rated Chimera corp saga. It did not disappoint. —— Dark Lullaby was probably my least favorite due to the fact that I tense up when playing horror themed rooms. But when I say “least favorite” it does not in anyway connote that the room was subpar. Still a superior room and a worthy segment of the Chimera saga. For me it’s just the fear of jump scares that gets me. It’s not the actually characters that scare me, but the anxiety of the possible jump scare that distracts me ultimately from enjoying the rooms and puzzles. So this is a bit of a biased review. That aside, if you like scary rooms you would absolutely love this one. Despite the scare factors, I found it had solid puzzle work in addition to the immersive story telling experience. And honestly the horror wasn’t too bad. We’ve seen worse. ——- I advocate for people to do the whole trilogy. Speaking with the staff afterwards, there’s a bunch of sequences and story added between the rooms that really enrichen the experience in the trilogy play…and makes just doing the rooms as solo plays, fairly lame.

We've played all their rooms, and Dark Lullaby was definitely my favorite. I like actors in escape rooms as they add an element of excitement. A couple of the puzzles were a little weak, but overall, I'd highly recommend this game for the way the storyline blends seamlessly into its ambiance.

Peepers really stole the show on this one for me! Some of the puzzles will still haunt my nightmares 🦷

This was such an amazing room! Top 5 for sure!

I absolutely loved Dark Lullaby. The escape room elements were fantastic, with some crazy cool set design, puzzles that were consistently solid and fun to solve, and a flow and story that was well told. The scary aspects of the room were just perfect - a great mix of telegraphed cinematic moments and jump scares. The character interactions were also simply phenomenal and made the entire experience so much better. Absolutely worth traveling for and an experience I will never be able to forget (even if I want to!)

oh my god. this was the scariest room i’ve ever done like truly was on the edge of my seat the whole time!! the story was fxcking amazing. every detail in the room was so fun and integrated into the story perfectly. loved the balance of slight silliness and absolute terror in this room it was a blast. taylor was a phenomenal gm and i absolutely loved his role in the experience. gorgeous environments in here. the puzzles were straightforward and really let the story shine

This is a new favorite scary room for me, the situations we encountered were incredibly effective, one scare literally had me crawling away like a dog lollll. The story was a super interesting twist on the through-line of the saga, where something “went wrong…”
