Secrets of the Pharaohs

Sands and pillars are everywhere in this room, but I felt like I was lost in their puzzle designs as most of it didn't feel intuitive, and need some trial and error and guidance from the GM to facilitate.

I love a good Egyptian themed room, and the wow factor of walking in and feeling transported to ancient Egypt would always be exciting to me. However, after having done all three rooms at this location, this was my least favorite. There were too many puzzles that did not feel intuitive. Even our game master shared with us that a couple of the puzzles could be better designed. There’s a difference between feeling like “oh, I can’t believe I didn’t get that” versus “That does not make any sense.” I had more of those confused moments, even when it was explained to us at the end. With that said, the puzzles made great use of the space! I do wish there was a tad bit more light though because we ended up having to use our phones to see!

Classic Egyptian room, tech puzzles, excellent set design. Most of the solutions were intuitive, and we had a fantastic GM!

I never love when you end up spending too much time on one puzzle that’s unnecessarily difficult. The set is great and you’ll love it. There were a few times we thought, “this isn’t intuitive” or “what’s next?”This review is worded weirdly! It’s a way to scratch the escape room itch and it’s fun. All of these things are true at the same time.

"Secrets of the Pharaohs" escape room is an immersive experience with a brilliantly executed ancient theme. The puzzles flow smoothly from one to the next, with one particularly challenging puzzle adding to the excitement. Highly recommended for an engaging and thought-provoking adventure.

Don’t wear heels LOL. Also one of the puzzles in this room can be very difficult and you will definitely need a hint for it. Otherwise super cool room and well thought out

So messy! It generally flowed smoothly, however at least 1 puzzle wasn’t working properly & another required force. Fortunately, none of that impeded our progress, though it lost us some time. Fun word puzzles, but does need a tune-up.

Fun gameplay, good set. I’d recommend wearing a pair of older shoes.

This room was a lot of hieroglyphics, symbols etc. (they actually give you a pen and paper). Nice set design overall. The room felt like work - I prefer my rooms to be more fun and inquisitive with magical moments. Also the room was on the harder side, but that might’ve been because I felt like I was working vs enjoying escaping GM was *awesome* with a fun personality and helpful hints. I’ll definitely be back to try more rooms at this location!

The production quality for this escape room was fantastic. I was super surprised upon entering the room. The puzzles were linear, the puzzles were unique. One of the puzzles in particular seemed quite poorly designed and unintuitive. However I enjoyed a majority of the puzzles. There should potentially be an additional puzzle that provides an additional clue to make it more intuitive. The game master was very friendly, and helpful. It is on the harder side for two player teams. I would suggested at least three people to make it comfortable. Definitely not for the vision or mobility impaired.
