Nevermore

Nevermore truly mystified me. I’ve played many premium games, most flashy and exciting, but this game instilled such a rare blend of cozy and eerie feelings akin to actually curling up and reading Poe. The puzzles themselves were so beautifully layered and engaging, I couldn’t get enough. Combine that with one of the most fully realized takes on a haunted manor set (complete with impressive yet tasteful special effects), I couldn’t get enough of this game. Very few games play In this territory, that being beautiful restraint, but it’s clear Nocturne Adventures had a clear, cohesive vision that they more than achieved.

10 out of 10! We loved Nevermore! Absolutely worth the trip—the game is top notch. Unique theme, incredible atmosphere, fun puzzles and great hosts. A must do that will satisfy beginners and enthusiasts alike!

This experience was incredible. Very intricate & immersive environment. The puzzles flowed well and made complete sense. All of the elements were excellent—no faulty locks or furniture. A SUPER solid escape room!! Loved it.

The theme is very well done and the puzzles are nice. The staff are wonderful and we had a great time talking with them after the game.

I honestly cannot say enough good things. We have done escape rooms all over the country both rooms top 1% and the ripper room is my favorite. HIGHLY recommend

The gameplay was so smooth, the puzzles were satisfying, and we were treated very well. This is a really unique venue, I highly suggest paying them a visit.

Nevermore was a delightfully entertaining game with a variety of puzzles and left us engaged the whole game. There were neat lighting changes when appropriate that added a very nice touch. Set design was theme appropriate and nothing seemed out of place. The owners are so wonderful and I am so grateful we got to spend time sharing stories. This business is definitely an experience from being an escape room in a residential basement to engaging with the actors. What a great time.

Amazing!

This feels like what escape rooms are supposed to be. Artists creating art and inviting you into it. The owners here are clearly escape room lovers. You won’t find broken props or careless game masters. No spoilers but some excellent surprises here and we loved it!!

An escape room in someone’s real-life basement has no business being this mindblowingly amazing! Seriously, we pulled up into someone’s actual house, and experienced an adventure more immersive than countless other professional commercial establishments. It’s totally legit! The room itself is both a love story and a love letter to Edgar Allen Poe and his popular story The Raven. References are peppered throughout, so those familiar with his works will appreciate everything. The puzzles are honestly some of the best tightly-packed, well-clued, brain-stimulating challenges I’ve ever seen so meticulously presented from start to finish. This room, much like Poe’s stories, is a work of art, with high tech marvels and an unexpected guest who literally brings the room to life. The effects, lighting, and cinematic moments set the spooky mood masterfully, and they are entirely up my alley for the blueprints to an excellent escape room. Tom and Nicole are lovely owners, and this escape room in their basement might just be the most idealized perfect room that I could ever have the privilege of playing. This last-second addition to our big Carolinas escape trip has easily risen to my top favorite rooms. And I will not forget this amazing experience, nevermore.
