This is the second room we have done at Hidden Gems and we very much enjoyed it. There are some different elements that I have not seen before and everything was really on theme. We did get caught up by a couple of items in the room that actually weren’t clues but overall the game flowed well. We will be back to complete the third room.
Definitely some well thought out clues and puzzles that went with the theme.
Very attentive staff/owners

There was one lock that was not reset but the GM came in and reset it. No big deal.

This was an original room designed by the owner. I liked that there there were not a lot of physical locks in the room, rather other ways to get clues….such as a lab equipment, and things that moved and opened. I also really that we got to talk to the owner that designed it. Great experience!
It flowed very well.

My friends and I loved this room! The puzzles were very unique and played into the theme very well! We would definitely play here again, and the owners were super nice.

Having now played all of the rooms at Hidden Gems, I can say that Elixir inc. is the most challenging room they have. Everything flowed well and if we hadn’t gotten caught up by overlooking one thing it would’ve been a seamless experience. I look forward to seeing what they can do with their next room!

Stellar! I felt just like a real scientist throughout the whole experience! I would 100% recommend if your looking for an interesting activity.
Super neat! Definitely one of the best lab themed rooms I’ve ever done!
From the moment I stepped in the room I knew it was going to be good! Super immersive and great puzzles!
The GM was fantastic! It’s a family run business and it definitely feels like it! Right when I walked in I felt welcomed.

Yes! To not give too much away one of the puzzles was so neat! I’m still thinking of it because it was so interesting.
The room is lab/science themed. Almost all the puzzles has something to do with science in one way or another. Many cool puzzles that I haven’t seen anywhere else!
Hard
Elixir is their hardest room so far. Someone of the puzzles were tricky but it was quite manageable. It was a fun challenge!
Not at all
It wasn’t very physically challenging. No crawling and not much bending down. You do walk around but that’s to be expected!

Elixir room was such a fun room a bit more challenging than Sleepy Hollow. The clues were a bit tricky to break. The game master was awesome and gave us just enough to get us back on track. A great game for family fun! Can’t wait for the other rooms to open we will be sure to be back!
So much fun! Loved the flow and just the right amount of space.
Welcoming, cool eclectic!
He was so awesome!
