Way of the Mando

Although this room required no Star Wars knowledge, it boasted a very impressive Star Wars-themed set and really made you feel like you were on the millennium falcon! We did this with 2 experienced players and it worked very well for us. Although the individual puzzles were relatively easy, the difficulty of this room stems from the sheer number of puzzles to complete. I wasn't personally a huge fan of how non-linear this room was and felt that it took away from its overall flow. There were times where my partner or I had solved some of the easier puzzles simply as we explored the room looking for what to do next, and this created some confusion as to what had already been used and what hadn't. However, if non-linear escape rooms are your thing, then you will definitely have a blast! There were also puzzles still in the room that were no longer in use. I don't mind it if there are ambiguous things in the room that can potentially steer you off course, but these were very obviously puzzles so I found it a bit distracting. They did have a lot of really unique puzzles, with a good combination of tech and mechanical elements. Overall, it was still a very fun room with a nice facility and staff! Definitely will be back to try more :)

I was super excited to try Way of the Mando as it was our first time trying out Escape 60! The props were really cool and well integrated as well as the overall theme of the room. The game was fun and had some creative components that were nicely done. I also liked the amount of puzzles within this room! There was a lot to do, but none of it was super complicated/abstract which made the fact that there was a lot to do really satisfying. The room was a little small and I could imagine it would be quite cramped with more than 4 people; we were 2 and I found that to be pretty good. Escape 60 was a nice establishment that seems like a nice vibe to come with a bigger group and get a drink with as well! We went at the last possible time on a weeknight so they were a little short-staffed but were friendly. Seems like a great place so go on a weekend when they have enough people to accomodate the large groups and large number of rooms. We are going back soon to try their turtles room with a bigger group on a holiday and are really looking forward to that as well!
