Extremely immersive but not my favorite room here. At least one of the puzzles was poorly designed and a little ambiguous. The ending of this game was pretty cool but fairly abrupt. The staff is extremely variable in their friendliness and obvious enjoyment (or ambivalence) to their job.

The staff is extremely variable in their friendliness and obvious enjoyment (or ambivalence) to their job. Courtney, Malcolm and Keegan were great. The other game masters we had (we played all rooms) were not impressive.

My reviews for the 13th Gate rooms are redundant at this point. Impressive set design, lackluster puzzles. For Death Row, this is your standard prison break. Your team will be split up in separate cells and there will be some clues that can only be available if you communicate with one another. The flow did not feel as natural to me but the ending was surprising and one that I did not expect. Overall, it was a solid experience but nothing too impressive.

We have all played a lot of prison escape style games. The theme is just too easy for escape room owners to not utilize it when they can. That said, this was the best prison break experience I have ever had at an escape room. The set design is well done (like everything at 13th Gate) and the finale is just a lot of fun. Don't skip this game just because it is a jail break

Some frustrating puzzles and some that didn't make sense as to why they would be that way. More physical than some of the other games. This is one of the ones where you use an ipad and QR codes for clues which ruins immersion. But when we played we didn't even get an ipad because the other game that needed it "had priority". There was an item in the room that allowed us to bypass a puzzle so we had to go back and redo something the correct way (should probably remove said item). The set design was nice but lackluster compared to the other games here.

Great room on a very prominent theme. Good manual puzzles. We had to break out of our jail cells (as you usually do) and then get out of death row. Was not as involved as some other of the other cell blocks but did have a great secret which we wonβt spoil. I will agree with many reviews that in comprising to other games at 13th Gate, this was definitely on the blander side. Nice ending which was expected but also pretty fun to watch the victim. ποΈποΈποΈ
Gameplay
The flow was fine. Puzzles pushed you through the storyline.
Atmosphere
Set design was basic cell block. A couple of things were on the side of pushing it farther ahead of other designs, but the. There were some missed opportunities as well that we have seen in other rooms.
Customer service
Overall yes. However we are very used to convos with GMs and owners and really asking questions. There did not seem time for that personal connection here. Very businesslike.

Very realistic! Loved this room. The staging made me feel like I was actually trying to break out of prison. There were certain elements of the puzzles that made this feel very realistic.

This was easily one of the most disappointing rooms at 13th gate and thatβs almost all of them. This room is very bland in theming compared to the others. Itβs a prison, I mean not much that can be done, but when you have bland theming and terrible puzzles. No thanks.

The flow is terrible! Puzzles that you have no idea are puzzles are pretty unenjoyable

This room fell so flat compared to the rest. We played a prison game where we used our pipe system to transfer things between walls. This just wasnβt exciting and the QR codes are annoying. Pulls us out of the immersion
