If you have to pick between rooms, choose this one. Some people were turned off by the stranger things theme; I’ve never seen an episode and it didn’t hamper my experience at all. So from the top, this room was just a collection of really clever puzzles. I wouldn’t say any of them were too hard, or made any thematic sense, but they were just an absolute joy to do. For example, putting X item on Y object shouldn’t progress the plot at all… but it was so much fun that I dot even care. The room was also very spacious and in New York, that’s a welcome asset. 9.5/10 and one of my top 5 I’ve ever done.
Really fun puzzles. None were too complex, but the point is to have fun; not to decipher code
Great sets. Unlike corporate rooms, this one had lots of love and a bunch of detail

If you’re a Stranger Things fan, you will definitely enjoy this escape room. The whole set had so many Easter egg moments! There were some props and puzzles that we have never encountered anywhere else and also played a part in the immersive experience. My partner has never watched Stranger Things before, but still enjoyed the storyline of this room. A lot of the puzzle sequences blew our sci-fi nerd brains. I would highly recommend watching at least Season 1 of Stranger Things first to truly appreciate all the little details in Montauk Project. 10/10!

My fiancé and I have played both of their rooms and we love them. They’re well designed, interesting and overall just enjoyable. The rooms are intricate and everything is well-matched for the room and the time period. The staff is also welcoming and are super supportive giving clues while you’re in the room.

Great themed and some fab puzzles at the start. We found the final area a little disappointing

Loved most of the puzzles, some of which I had never seen before. I do wish it had been a bit less scattered and more streamlined of an experience though

Starts out innocently and gets a little "strange" later. I would say these puzzles really aren't too difficult. Breezed through the first two rooms pretty easily, and got stuck a bit on the last room which ruined our flow. Loved the stranger things theme and how similarly they tried to tie in the series. The puzzles didn't require too much thinking in my opinion, but I enjoyed how they presented the puzzles for you to figure out. All-in-all, cute theme and fun puzzles. The last room just felt like it needed some help because a lot of the puzzles needed some guidance..
Flowed well up until the last room for my team.
Cool production! Felt a little dirty for some rooms, but the room designs were really cool.
Nice GM.

The Stranger Things theme was different than the usual escape room themes in my opinion, which added neat elements to the game play.
Didn't really follow a major story line, but if you've ever watched stranger things, you already understand what's happening.

Pretty cool immersive homage to Stranger Things. There are some things I haven't seen before despite doing so many rooms. I still don't love that the GM has to trigger the unlocking for some of the puzzles, but this room didn't feel like it had a lot of those moments like Ghost Light.

Subtle nods to Stranger Things. Good little room. There's plenty to do, some physical puzzles, and some fair collaboration required. A few puzzles are quite clever.

nods to stranger things. Puzzles were ok, flow was linear, set design was not bad, it was a fun room overall. nothing particularly game changing though

Nice variety of puzzles and mystery theme. Not too difficult with two experienced players. Game master Jen was great, we only needed one hint. If you're only doing one room at Myss Tic I recommend Ghost Light, but Montauk still better than some independent rooms I've done.
