Escape The Colosseum: The Underworld Maze

We had a group of two and made it out. It is a 2 hour, progressive-style room with 30 minutes in each of four rooms. We were a walk in, so they started us a bit after our time. We hade it through the first room but then didn't finish the second room, but only because they pushed us through in less than 30 minutes, presumably to keep us on their schedule.

It was cool, pretty darn fun considering the four different rooms. The “clue” system is very unique, in a great way. A wee bit rinky but not enough to deter away from the story and fun. Definitely a good time. 8/10 fun meter.

This room is also public and we were put in with another group and it was fun working with other people. The game is very linear and not too difficult to navigate and solve. Working together will definitely help you get through the game faster. I recommend if you want to do a longer escape room

Loved a 2hr adventure that actually needed the full time. The puzzles are well integrated, not a padlock in sight

The escape room was fun, our fist one that was over an hour. We finished each section within the allotted time and had about 25 to spare. The GM was really fun and made the experience more enjoyable. My only complaint is that there was a party of about 27 kids next door and we could hear screaming for an hour, which made it hard to concentrate. The puzzles were terrible difficult, but were fun.

This was a fun 2hr escape room! The puzzles were fun, there was a great variety, and something for everyone to work on. We were able to complete all rooms within the time frame, but I could see it being frustrating if you had to move to the next room before completing everything!

Recommend a larger group as this is a marathon since it is 4 separate rooms. Great theming though

There are four independent rooms that you must complete, with 2 hours overall to complete it. I wish that the whole was greater than the sum of its parts, but it really did feel like a sequence of "just-ok" rooms.

Four rooms with quite a few puzzles! We were able to fill up the time reasonably with a group of 6 and finish with half an hour to spare. We did not run into the problem that other reviewers have noted of being pushed forward through rooms, though we did have to negotiate with our GM to replay audio clues that were hard to hear the first time when we didn’t know they were coming. Play was fun and props were very good - while there was nothing mind blowing this is a really solid room for a group who wants to chew on more content for longer!

There are a couple of gripes that I have for this room / run / location. The switched communication methods with the GM literally as we were walking into our room (walkie-talkies instead of monitors or intercom?) who was not familiar with how to use them effectively and had to swap out ours repeatedly because the signal was clearly poor. There were some issues I had with a broken lock that popped apart, some misleading don't touch stickers masking the solution to a puzzle, "parallel" puzzles that were not obvious (you solve something and nothing happens because you didn't solve it in the expected order), and an inability of the GM to explain how some of the puzzles are solved asking if we really want to know how the specific parts were supposed to come together and was pressed looking through notes. I had asked if they had an escape rate percentage or a best time and I was told they don't track that anymore. All the pieces together gave me the sense that there wasn't as much attention to detail that I am accustomed to.
