Our story revolves around you, a group of children, really keen on circus performances. Unfortunately, last night one of your peers was kidnapped. As you were searching for evidence, you found a ticket cut out from a circus you've never heard before, “Wanderlust Circus, 1940”. Without second thoughts, you decided to seek your friend at the circus site and even though you managed to get inside, you realized you are trapped in a cursed circus. Shadows and dark figures appear on the walls creeping between the red and white stripes. I do not know how but, you have to be fast and find a way to get out before the clown returns.

An unexpected blast! Pretty easy for experienced players, but the mix of physical carnival style games (which are perfect for the theming) and original puzzles I had never seen before (no spoilers: the "animal" puzzle), this was an unexpected delight!
Gameplay
Great flow. Everything on thematic point.
Atmosphere
This was good. Parts of the rooms felt a little sparse, but overall everything on point. Nothing superfluous.
Customer service

This was the best execution of a clown horror game I've seen. A few jumps and scares without being over the top, and underneath the scares, there are very good puzzles which match the theme to a T.
Story
Good. Nothing deep, but it was clear from start to finish what we were doing.
Difficulty
Medium
Easy for our squad, but there were some tricky things which beginners might need some guidance. But still worth playing. Not a bad first game if someone is going with experienced players.

5 was OK but someone might be sitting out while a few of the puzzles are being solved.

No, BUT one puzzle was a little finicky - we had to input an answer s few times before it triggered right

No running or crawling required, but a few puzzles required manipulation of light objects and the carrying of items (not too heavy)
Accessibility
Accessible. No crawling or climbing. Two puzzles require hand-eye coordination in a team of at least two people, but there's probably a workaround available on request

Lots of jump scares but the lighting and noise were definitely scarier than the actual scares. They were all clearly fake clowns so not much to worry about there! Lots of skill based puzzles which wasn’t my favorite but was definitely different than i’ve played before.

Set was AMAZING. i truly felt like i was in AHS Freakshow like wow. All the puzzles were incredibly on theme and multi-layered. It was like the puzzles were almost intuitive but little bit off from what you would think they’d be. Megan was an awesome host! Her audio clues were fun and kept us immersed. A little too scary for me, lots of jump scares, but, still very fun!

Wow! Fabulous room. The theme runs through all the puzzles and each puzzle advances the game in an interesting way. There were some really unusual and fun physical puzzles that really made the teamwork aspect to the game a lot more fun. The creepy factor is high but manageable even for those who hate clowns. This room is a terrific pair to the doll room at the Tampa location. Do them both for a full creeped out experience. PS- we had a great experience with the staff so take the negative comments about them with a bucket of salt.

The atmosphere was very freaky. Sometimes we thought we knew what scares were coming but we got quite a few terrifying surprises

We were treated well the GM provided hints soon after we asked for them and the upfront staff were nice.

This one was a lot of fun and some nice jump scares. We felt it was on the easier side and had just under 34 minutes remaining as a duo.

Honestly it's just a room filled with Halloween props from the store and With all the space they have for this game I'm surprised it wasn't used well.it just felt like a hallways with a few puzzles in them barley any story to be told and the ending was just half assed .Nothing about this room felt original and the staff were not the friendliest . Got the impression they just wanted us out once the room was done . We were planning on booking another room after this game but nobody interacted with us after they just went back behind their curtain and ignored our group. Just felt like another franchise that just comes up with cheap rooms .

Overall experience was alright. Only played a few “Game Over” games so far but they sort of all feel the same. I’m not the biggest fan of a 5 minute time out period between clues. Gameplay was fine. Nothing outstanding or interesting. The “bonus time” for helping reset the room is also an interesting choice. After the game, we wanted to kill time between this location and another location we had later in the day and thought about replaying a game, but the game master ushered us out and quickly disappeared and we didn’t really feel welcome so we decided to leave and not replay.

Big set but still felt very bare and open.

After the game, we were quickly ushered out and the GM disappeared without saying anything so we chose not to replay a game, which we were originally planning on it.

There was a story given in the video, but none of the puzzles contributed to the story. The end game was anticlimactic.

The space in this room is underutilized. It felt like there were only two puzzles per space. Would’ve played another room here but gms were rude and very unhelpful.
