This is a mobile escape room and we did it when it was visiting Tacoma, WA. Even though it's a trailer, it didn't seem cramped inside. There was a nice variety of puzzles and it indeed was educational.

Thank you for playing! Some ‘brick and mortar’ games I’ve played were half the size of our trailer; I’m glad you found the trailer spacious.

Amazing room, honestly it is probably one of my favorite rooms. The puzzles are really good and the knowledge that it provides is really useful beyond the room.

Wow! Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the Cafe, and I hope we inspired you to continue your preparedness journey. Don't forget to store 1 gallon of water, per person, for 14 days!

This was a very unique, very enjoyable room. And it’s very informative too! We did with a group of five experienced players and found it parallels very well. Highly recommend.

Awesome! Thank you kindly for the feedback - I'm glad the parallel progression worked well for you.

WOW! This was an incredible game through and through. Clever and thematic puzzles that are both telling you a story but also hopefully teaching you about things that could very well save your life. There wasn’t a single part of this game that disliked. Highly recommend!

Shaky Grounds Cafe was a blast! We really enjoyed the unique setting and themes. Multiple branching puzzle paths that come together beautifully. Great use of space, and a surprising amount of varied puzzles make this a true one of a kind experience. This room is an absolute must do in Portland. The owner Tyler even opened availability specifically for us since we were visiting from out of town. Thanks Tyler! We were lucky to experience such a fun game the last day of our trip 😀
