Budapest Express

Room was the least intuitive room I've ever played, set design was fun and immersive but puzzles weren't fun or logical. Decor had "do not touch" signs but needed to be touched. Game master was friendly and kind but even after thorough explanation, not sure the leaps of reason that one would have to take to figure this out. Never played an escape room that required you to not move a single prop the whole game in order to deduce the puzzle.

They have some pretty good rooms… just need to change them out more often and maybe stay up to date with broken stuff cause there’s been times I’ve gone and stuff doesn’t open

A good room with a neat set design. As other reviews have said, moving items around in this room can possibly hamper you for the final puzzle if you don’t really remember where you got stuff from and I think that’s what ultimately made me go with like it over love it rating on here.

This was one of the first rooms we ever did at Escapology - and we loved it. This one is just the right amount of difficult where it’s still super do-able and you get a lot of satisfaction from completing the puzzles. The atmosphere and story is classic, and very immersive. I loved it.

Super fun room! Really enjoyed the storyline of this room and thought this room moved quickly. Our group of 4 easily managed this room and had a lot of fun while doing it :)

Atmosphere was really nice. I mean as soon as I walked in I loved it! They did great with that. The game flowed well, didn’t even need hints… until we got to the end which really left a sour taste in my mouth about this room, which stinks because it has so much potential. So naturally in an escape room you open everything up and use what you need. What you don’t use you either put it in a pile and/or drag it with you or what you have it, right? Well, we did that. So when it came to the final part to solve the mystery we couldn’t do it alone. There was waaay too much to remember. So I recommend they just make the effort to tell the players before starting to not separate things that they go through like bags, suitcases, etc. to leave everything where they find it… because if not the last and most important puzzle is impossible without a hint giving you the answer.

Fantastic room. Not much else to say. The clues and rooms flow smoothly and there’s little in the way of overly ambitious tech to risk malfunctioning. Amazing atmosphere, the tech that is used works flawlessly and in an unobtrusive way, and everything you’ve found helps solve the mystery in one way or another by the very end.
