All right, scouts! Are you ready for your big adventure in the woods? Don’t mind the rumours about the forest being haunted by spirits, we’re pretty sure it’s all nonsense and poor old Sam will find their way back one day soon. After all, time can pass very quickly in there; morning to noon to evening to night and before you realise, it’s morning again! Stay safe in the woods, scouts – it’s everyone’s responsibility!

Really great room, loved the story! One of the few rooms we've done that I would recommend doing with more than two people. It's very non linear, and with a lot going on its easy to lose some of the smaller details.

An excellent room with great atmosphere, a wonderful interactive experience thanks to the GM voice acting the story, and great puzzles. There are a few hiccups in my opinion, but it was still great fun throughout.
Gameplay
The puzzles were very out of the box. Perhaps a bit TOO out of the box, honestly. Most of the puzzles are fine or even great, but there’s one that I found rather… thanks to the GM interacting with us, it was fine, but it’s a thin line to walk.
Atmosphere
Stellar atmosphere and set design. The voice actor/GM did extremely well at bringing us into the setting and improvising with our play. YMMV based on GM, but ours was great.
Customer service
Loved the energy of the GM. It helped that they were speaking with us the entire time, but hey.

There’s a few mechanical locks, and the electronics are somewhat simple, but it’s still what I’d call high-tech.

The room is multi-linear, but in a way where you can’t really do more than one puzzle at a time. That said, more eyes and hands will help for some of the puzzles.

About 80% of the story was told to us from a live voice actor doing improv, and it really improved the experience

Forest of Echos is a game that focuses much more on the story and narrative, but doesn’t sacrifice the puzzles or the set. I loved the alternate approach that shows that escape rooms can tell intricate, connected, and meaningful stories. The game master interactions were also my favorite part, you can have so much fun if you treat this less like an escape room and more like an interactive experience. A must for any enthusiast, simply for not being afraid to be different and unique

The game master made this room. I expected puzzles to be a lot more challenging particularly given some of their other rooms. The story line got a little confusing at the end and seemed unnecessary. Lighting and thematically was very creative!

A beautiful, unique room with some brilliant ideas and multi-linear puzzles. Not a big space but it was packed with props and the use of lighting played a big role. Narrative driven, with a lot of voice acting, which is typically not our kind of thing, but it’s definitely worth a try just to experience it for yourself. The tech in this room was off the charts but extremely well designed and hidden.

This escape room was so much fun, and loved the game masters narrative story telling. Really enjoyed this!

Gorgeous room, great puzzle design, but not the challenge we had anticipated. We have done all the other rooms at Next Level, and saved this one til last because it was supposed to be the most difficult. It was great atmosphere, and fun, but we felt it could have been a bit more challenging.

This is a non linear escape room packed with many puzzles. The set design is fantastic and puzzles suited the theming very well. However, as we progressed, the story increasing became confusing and unnecessarily complicated.
