Setup like a classic whodunnit. Excellent puzzles and challenges. Props and decor really immerse you in the Noir effect. Had an awesome time. Definitely recommend!

Great experience with my employees for a team-building event! I loved the variety of puzzles and a great storyline!

One of the better escapes I’ve done personally. Very intricate, answers its own questions, direct, and doable. Staff were fantastic and seemed to enjoy their jobs there, game was pretty greyscale, just like the theme, which is awesome. All in all, very very nice.
Gameplay
Very intricate and INCREDIBLY thought out, down to getting a paper upside down and the puzzle TELLING US to turn the paper the right way, not the GMs, not arrows. Truly impressive.
Atmosphere
Damp and dark, as an investigator’s office should be. However, one of the later sections of the escape did lose our connection with the plot in terms of immersion.
Customer service
Our GM was an absolute peach and gave us an extra few minutes when we were close to winning. We unfortunately didn’t have a lot of contact with them because the chime for their messaging system is so quiet, but it made us feel much smarter to solve *most* of it on our own. They were all for chatting it up after the escape, and we felt very cared for.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
Again, the intricacy of their puzzle solving was truly mind blowing.
Story
Can’t remember a lot about it now, but our goal was precise and understandable.
Difficulty
Hard
Just my girlfriend and I to solve it, and it was HARD. So worth it though.

Needed more brains than just us if we had wanted to make it in good time.

Sara was a fantastic GM, she really helped keep us immersed. This room has a LOT of puzzles, so more people is better, but we did ok with two and got some “extra time when the chief was away”. Challenging without being frustrating. Loved the theme, and was relatively easy to make connections while non-linear.

Had a good time in this room! It’s a fairly standard whodunnit room as far as atmosphere goes, but the non-linear puzzles were good and challenging. A tricky room for 2 people but we escaped with less than 2 min to go!
Gameplay
Fun private investigator theme! The non-linear clues occasionally stumped my team so we had to ask for some clues.
Atmosphere
Fairly basic room - no elaborate set but some fun audio elements
Customer service
GM, Jax, was enthusiastic and helpful!

Standard but well-done whodunnit escape room. Puzzles make sense, low-tech means nothing was broken. Set design was minimal, and the small space is best suited to smaller groups. Our GM, Maverick, was energetic and responsive, which helped a lot!

To be honest, this is one of my least favorite rooms that I've done. It felt very bland, and the clues were a little lackluster. There weren't a lot of puzzles that felt unique, and the room honestly didn't feel very immersive. It felt challenging, but not in a good way. It just didn't feel very intuitive. There are definitely a couple clever puzzles, but not enough to make it feel like it was truly special. Yeah, the atmosphere honestly like I'd give it a thumbs down
