Shiver me timbers! This was a great room!
This was my 54th escape room (48W - 6L) which I played with four other adults with similar statistics. The non-linear room is elaborately decorated with well thought out puzzles all of which are in tip-top condition. The GM was very friendly and respected our request for no clues unless we asked for them (we ended up receiving two). We escaped with 21:21 remaining but don't let that time fool you, it is a medium difficulty room with challenging puzzles (I just rode the coat-tails of my really smart teammates). I appreciated that the timer was set for 75 minutes, because, come on... who likes to fail?
The location was easy to find, parking was easy, and the rooms were terrific.
We solved three rooms today at this location: Mad Scientist, Treasure Island, and Flynn's - all are amazing.
The room was amazing! The tiki bar with real refreshments was a fun idea. The game play and story flowed well and stayed in character.
The props and designs were fabulous. Every puzzle was in excellent condition.
Our GM (sorry, I forgot his name) was very friendly and respected our request for no hints, unless we asked for them (we ended up asking for two, I think).
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
As mentioned, the room was decorated very well. It was absolutely in theme.
TBH, I don't really follow the plots, but my teammates do and they liked the story.
My team of five adults with 54 escape rooms under our belt (48W - 6 L) were challenged but not overwhelmed. The 75 minute time is a nice bonus.
It was probably a mixture of both, but maybe a little more mechanical?
We played as a group of five adults, but it would still be doable with four. Or more is ok too because the room is large and there are plenty of puzzles which can be solved simultaneously.
We won't play scary rooms.
I list ten as the minimum age only based on a typical ten year old's attention span. But if you have a younger enthusiast, absolutely include them! The rooms are not scary or inappropriate.
Everything was in excellent condition.
We won't play rooms with live actors.
Physically active
Somewhat
There is the usual scurrying around associated with escape rooms, but nothing strenuous.
Accessibility
I think the room is more appropriate for players without common disabilities.
Parking is on site. In fact we brought our dog since it was a cloudy & cold day and left her in the car with the windows open. Since we played three rooms today, we could take her out for a walk between rooms.
