Will you find what you need before they figure out you’re there? An American spy plane has just been shot down over Cuba and with Fidel Castro suspected, the President is now under massive pressure from the Pentagon to launch an invasion of Cuba. Your mission is to infiltrate Castro’s palace, locate the secret KGB office, and find out who was responsible for shooting down the American plane. You are standing outside Castro’s palace waiting to hear that it is empty. You receive the all-clear. Castro’s bodyguards and the KGB are not on the premises, however, having entered the Palace, you receive word that Castro and his bodyguards are traveling back there, and they are only 60 minutes away! You must complete your mission and escape before you are caught!

Worst. Escapology. Room. Ever. I generally like Escapology as a mid comfort experience. This didn’t even achieve that bare minimum. No flow, bad puzzles, broken monitors. There’s a reason this is the only one left in the world. There’s a reason even this final relic is being replaced. Castro must go.

28 escape rooms

This room was the worst room we’ve done over the past 5 years.

Gameplay

Only my opinion. I’m a fan of the other rooms they have (scooby, pirate)but this one isn’t very good The game just didn’t go together with the theme and the room is pretty dull.

Atmosphere

Dull

Customer service

Welcoming and not very helpful delayed with hints when needed

Particularly interesting or different

No

Again if Cuba’s missile needed pants belts that spell escape backwards than this is your game

Story

Lame, not at all on topic.

Difficulty

Hard

It was difficult for us because nothing made sense. Maybe we are dumb.who really knows. We have enjoyed a lot of escape rooms but this was by far the worst one we have done

Game tech

No not at all. Unless 4 Av cables and a unhooked antique phone counts

Ideal number of players

4

Scary

Not scary

Only point I was worried when I thought I was losing my mind because we couldn’t figure out anything. Darts? Belts? Jenga= Cuba missle ?
