Tomb Of Anubis

This room is amazing! The set and production is top tier. Genuinely shocking moments. While it is one of the rooms where you follow a journal most of the time, I thought the puzzles were still very interesting and fun. Our GM was so amazing! He helped us right as we needed it.

Hardest room we ever attempted. Tried twice to no avail

This location goes all out. They had so many special effects. I didn’t like not having a timer visible within the room. It was harder for us to manage our time. I wish I lived closer because I would be back to complete the rest of the rooms. Their rooms go very in depth, our whole group was extremely impressed. I’m only disappointed because we ran out of time so close to the end. This is the only escape room my fiancée and I haven’t escaped from.

If there was a rating between a like and a heart, I would definitely put Tomb of Anubis there in the middle. This room is considered their hardest room for a reason. The sheer number of puzzles from start to finish requires tight communication and collaboration. We also learned that the rating is based on the difficulty level of the other rooms that they offer and not a standard difficulty level. Take that information and do what you will. As for set design, this room is just as impressive as their award-winning Cutthroat Cavern! I felt like I was in an Egyptian tomb and the puzzles helped with the immersion. There is this one puzzle that just ate up time and was not as enjoyable to complete. We heard that this particular puzzle is a common complaint from other groups but I guess they just keep it in there to make the room more challenging than it is. I honestly don’t think that’s necessary given that there were so many other fun puzzles in the room. Jamie was our game master and she was the most helpful person in our 8 room experience. She gave us nudges in the right direction and walked us through the end when we did not finish. It still felt satisfying overall and I left with the knowledge that my group made substantial progress.

This was probably the first game I can recollect having a very genuine "wow" moment. I was lucky to play the game not long after it first opened on the HAA's Escape Room Tour in New Orleans. I had a great team and though we worked hard we came up short in the last room. But I'm no quitter... came back a year later and played again with a different group for the victory! It didn't hurt having a semi-good memory lol.

We expected Cutthroat Cavern to be the highlight of our trip but it was Anubis that truly blew us away!

Like others have said, should be a 90 minute game. Our group is experienced and this was the only game out of 6 at this location that we did not get out of. Had about 3 puzzles remaining. Atmosphere/set is well done but they really need to fix the games relying on iPads. QR codes for clues ruin immersion and messed up our flow. And not all of their games do this so it feels random. This game relies heavily on a journal to explain each puzzle which is also not my fave.

In my opinion Tomb of Anubis is their best game, I would put it up against Cut Throat cavern. Puzzle flow is definitely better in Tomb of Anubis but you just need more time. We got out of Anubis with 60 mins and 12 seconds.
