Mark as done to rate
Skunkwater, Arizona, 1880's Artifacts and stone carvings in the area have led to speculation about an ancient civilization that lived here long ago. Legend says there was a temple entrance hidden among the hills. During the day, at the right time, the sun would enter the temple and reveal a great secret and treasure to those that were worthy. Locals believe this explains the disappearance of an odd fellow named Carter. The lore recounts that Carter found the entrance and quickly built his store to conceal it while attempting to get the treasure for himself. But Sirtet, who guards the treasure, found him unworthy. The treasure remains. Make it to the temple at the right time to claim the treasure!

This is a great room! The concept is silly and fun, but the puzzles flowed well with the story. There was a few tricky puzzles where you had to use process of elimination, or really think on what they were telling you! Our GM (she was a red head, I feel terrible I can’t remember her name) was so nice — we ended up getting a miniature idol (featured in the room) for $5! Definitely recommend!

This was such a cute concept and a fun theme! It flowed very well.

Really cool game with more rooms than I was expecting. Puzzles all connected well and made perfect sense with plenty to do for our group of 4. The decor and feeling of the rooms were really immersive. Definitely recommend!

A lot of things to do but if your group is comfortable separating off and working on puzzles by themselves it’s not too challenging

It wasn't bad. The theming is fun, but a little distracting at times. The puzzles were easy to solve once you understood what needed to be solved. The space felt a little underutilized for being so expansive.

Overall, just ok for me. The theming and set design were well done. The puzzles varied and did require you to really pay attention. Difficult room overall and, I would say, extremely hard to do with less than 3 people. However, some puzzles just didn't make sense and certain triggers didn't work for us when we solved something. Overall, ok room. But we left with an unfulfilled feeling.

The red box in the very first room didn't open when triggered. Meaning the game master had to tell us it was open because nothing happened or notified us that it was open.

This is an amazing room with surprises around every door. Very very hard to do with just 2 people but Carter the game master was very helpful. Loved the different types of puzzles they had. No two looked the same. Highly recommend but bring maybe 4 people!!

Excellent room. One of the best I’ve done. All Escape Artists are top quality and fun with many surprises. Check out their Baldwin Park location in Orlando.

Really large and expansive room so watch your time (we didn't). Nice mix of puzzle types so it never get monotonous. I'd recommend a medium sized team that has done several rooms before.
Gameplay
Fun, varied; you won't be doing the same thing over and over.
Atmosphere
Good, but each section felt slightly disjointed. I think it could have used a little more of a though line.
Customer service
Excellent, the staff was wonderful

It was fine and tied the experience together, but nothing put of this world.

We failed, but we tried it with only 2 and it was my 3rd room. I think 4 and enough experience that you can recognize puzzle types readily would be ideal.
