Played with a group of 5 and had a wonderful time! I was wary about it because I scare easily but it was honestly nice and the humor in the room balanced the spooky parts :)
The game felt well-paced, there was only a moment or two where we felt like there wasnβt enough to do and they were resolved quickly!
Props and set design were gorgeous! I canβt handle scary but this room was perfectly spooky.
Staff was wonderful :)

Very fun and easy to follow - just the right amount of humor.

Not a lot of space for a big wheelchair, also some slopes inside the room and a step to get into the room from the start

Great for fans off Evil Dead π I watched all the movies in preparation and the atmosphere matched perfectly. This room came out a while ago, and is definitely showing itβs age. Less tech-y and a bit worn out. Still had a good time and the first of our Seattle trip! Multilinear, parking was hard for us because there was a hockey game that started at the same time as our game, and ended at the same time as well. Get there early!
Solidly multilinear
Great recreation of the Cabin!
Brisk intro and rushed through debrief.

The atmosphere was good and some interesting puzzles. We didnβt watch the movie so wasnβt sure about the reference. We had 7 people in the room and I think it was a bit hard to follow along with that many people. Probably 5-6 people will be the best.

I believe my team escaped but I canβt remember. When the room couldnβt offer in-person, we had a remote option. I am not as big into horror but this was done so well it didnβt matter. Remote is no longer offered because having a camera on oneβs head is too painful and it wouldnβt be feasible for them to keep running it remotely unfortunately.
It flowed completely well. This team of people are experts with storyline and room dynamics.
It was all well done explaining where things were and what we could do. If there were any game errors, they were modified timely and appropriately. If there were any, they were minor.
Like human beings and like they wanted us there.

This room is so well put together, if youβre an evil dead fan, you wonβt be disappointed. Itβs easy to blaze through this one, so if youβre a hands off player, be alert. Good puzzle solvers can get through this entire room quickly, so get involved and have some fun. The puzzles are simple, but non linear, so it can be fun to split up and progress nicely. My best advice is to take your time and really enjoy the ambiance, Iβd almost guarantee most groups (no matter their experience level) will complete this room. Highly recommend!

We loved this room!! The puzzles and set was so cool and very unique. It was so immersive and the puzzle had a very nice flow and werenβt too hard to solve, but just hard enough. The game master was wonderful and very helpful when we needed a few hints. The sound and visual effects were so cool in this room, and it had a pretty triumphant and exciting ending. This was definitely one of our favorite rooms we have done so far. We definitely recommend it!
The gameplay was very good, everything was on theme and really fun to solve!
The set/props and atmosphere was so good!! Very immersive, and again on theme.
Our game master was awesome! He let us book the room very last minute, and was super friendly and gave great hints when we asked.

I am so glad we got to do this room before we left seattle. There were 3 of us and the pace was perfect. Itβs a 70 min room and we made it out in 61 min, so we felt it wasnβt too hard, but it was perfect for our team. Full of tons of fun props, amazing decor. We havenβt seen the movie but we want to now!
The flow was perfect, the room had lots of βwowβ moments and we had a blast through the whole thing. It seemed very well paced. We knew exactly what the goal was. I loved the way we moved and progressed through the spaces, and it had an exciting ending.
Super immersive and fun room
The GM was awesome. I was nervous to book the time slot we wanted in case I couldnβt find parking, but we ended up getting a fairly close spot (I have a disability and canβt walk far). When we walked in, he got us in and the time we wanted and he was great through the room. We used about 4 hints but the hints are unlimited which we are always glad about. The GM said we could have as many hints as we want because the goal is to have fun, and I love that approach in an escape room business.

I have a mobility disability (minimal walking) and the room was great, with even a chair I could sit in when I needed to rest. There are some steps going up to the business.

This is one of my favorite escape rooms of all time! My wife played it on a date night, and we still talk about it all the time. Amazing story and progression - really cool surprises and an EPIC ending (no spoiler)!
