One of our favorite rooms ever. Our gamemaster was great. We enjoyed the puzzles. The facility is undergoing some work so the lobby and such were not great but the room was fine. Another bonus: We were in town on their day off, but they were able to make arrangements for us to be there.

The 90 minute length is due to the number of puzzles, not the difficulty.

One of the puzzles was not working properly and our gamemaster did a good job of getting us around that obstacle without just giving the answer. Our clock was stopped during this time.

There is a scent-based puzzle, which the gamemaster helped with as necessary.

Google maps took us to the back alley but we found the front of the building.

Even though this is the easier of the two rooms at Cityscape, it was still really fun and challenging enough for our family of 4. It had great flow of the puzzles and would be a blast with a smaller group or with someone new to escape rooms to get them hooked! Plus I learned some cool info about animals at the zoo! Bonus :)

Puzzles ๐Ÿงฉ: 10/10 Set/Wow Factor โœจ: 7.5/10 Story/Immersion ๐Ÿ”ฎ: 8/10 Fun factor ๐Ÿค˜: 9.5/10 Zookeeper was a real highlight of our trip to Seattle and Tacoma! The game design and puzzles felt thoughtfully curated and they were very satisfying to solve, with a great sense of fun and whimsy. We had a super enthusiastic GM. Perfect marks for a game in its category, and one we hope to play again with our young nephews in the future when theyโ€™re older. Weโ€™re excited to come back and try more games from Cityscape in the future!

Did it in Dec. 2024. Really nice puzzles, not too hard but the design was really delicate and well themed.

This was an absolutely fantastic room. We went with. Group of 3 players, which is a perfect size for experienced players. The game master even came in early to accommodate us so we could play the game before our flights out of Seattle. The organization of puzzles and non linear gameplay in this room is incredible.

Super cute room! The owner, Daniel, designed this with families and kids in mind. He cautions this isnโ€™t your room to do the hardest puzzles ever. He did want puzzles adults would enjoy solving but overall, enjoy the room. It, too, is a different spin on a theme you donโ€™t see much of. Also designed with a local flair. This room included super cool puzzles I have never seen before as well. Again with the use of color, I love it! I absolutely love his creativity and wanting to include families. Our team of 3 loved this room! Basically, go do the Cityscape Games rooms!
