The Conjoining

Crazy that the Vatican sent us all the way to St Kilda for this. The last remaining Rush room for me to complete and an honest to god (the devil?) good one. Nothing really reinventing the wheel here but some solid puzzling to be had nonetheless. The room was set up for spooks and scares with the classic dim lighting, scary paintings, disconcerting props etc. Advertised as the scariest of their horror experiences I personally found it maybe a bit tame? However, if you too happen to have a very jumpscarey partner this room is probably spooky enough for them. But for me? Could give a little more especially given the IP it’s based on. Unfortunately, we managed to accidentally work out a lock early on which set us off on the wrong path a little. Thankfully our very kind GM stepped in and told us to ignore it and continue in another direction. At last, my Rush quest meets its end. Until next time friends (squid game room).

Great room which had some interesting puzzles that were consistent with the room theme. Challenging but certainly not impossible. Would recommend but be conscious of the religious theme of the room is not for everyone or all ages.

This was my favourite escape room so far!! I am generally not a fan of anything scary but it only made it so much more fun. The puzzles flowed really well and going between rooms to solve puzzles really added to the spook! The storyline was excellent and definitely lots of cool special effects that made it really immersive. We did have a bit of tricky time with the final puzzle as the technology wasn’t as obvious as needed but other than that, I loved this room so so much!!

Great effects, awesome atmosphere, and great experience

I did have my reservations with this one beforehand as there’s already a few supernatural horror rooms out there that miss the mark but I ended up having a lot of fun in The Conjoining! Rush do really well to maintain the eerie atmosphere and tension with their sound design and unique room layout. An interesting inclusion to have both exits and covered by curtains, but it didn’t really take anything away from it. Puzzle flow was solid, making players go between rooms quite frequently to discover new items was a good call and lended itself well to the horror genre as my group was constantly splitting up. The puzzles themselves were nothing crazy or out of the box with the finale of the room feeling a bit abrupt and anticlimactic. While I thought the tech was used really well throughout, I felt it really could’ve been ramped up for the ending. Oh well. Still great spooky fun, shoutout to Georgia who was lovely and great to chat to! 6.8/10 🔏🧩

Pretty scare room especially for people who are frightened easily but such a fun room!! So many cool puzzles!

This was a fun and scary room with a brilliantly designed constant spooky atmosphere that kept us on edge the entire time.

Amazing room but rather scary!
