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.

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.
could use updating but fit theme

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.

The best horror room yet. Plenty of fun physical puzzles.

If you are scared of circus or dolls bring some “friends”, also known as sacrifices.

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.

Very memorable room. Atmosphere and props were well thought out and made you feel immersed. You felt like you were in a haunted side show carnival. Puzzles kept to the theming and were varied and unique. Loved the room would highly recommend.
Excellent gameplay. Puzzles fit the theme , and teamwork was needed. A couple of really nice unique puzzles for the room and all fit in the story and stuck with the theme.
Wonderful atmosphere. Props and ambiance made you feel like you walked into a roadside carnival. Spooky like a haunted funhouse and excellent jump scare.
GM was excellent - friendly and informative.

Some unique puzzles fit so well in the room Loved some really nice surprises.
Plot was one of my favorites so far. Elements were well integrated and the story flowed well.

Room is geared toward intermediate play but can be a nice starter room if you have a couple of people with you that have done escape rooms before.

One jump scare did not function . But it did not take away from total experience or impact the puzzles in any way

There are elements of dexterity and skill to the some of the puzzles. People with physical disabilities may have a challenge participating in the solving of the puzzles
Physical disability which impacts fine motor skills or strength may make it difficult or impossible to complete the room
