The Winemaker

We had an awesome time doing “The Winemaker” at Escape Manor! The wine cellar theme was incredibly well done and really pulled us into the experience from the moment we entered the room. The atmosphere felt immersive without relying on cheap scares, and the attention to detail made it feel like we were actually trapped inside a mysterious underground cellar. The puzzles were one of the best parts — challenging enough to really make you think, but still logical and satisfying once you figured them out. Nothing felt random or unfair, which made the whole experience super enjoyable for our group. You can tell a lot of thought went into both the design and flow of the room. If you enjoy escape rooms with immersive environments and clever puzzles, I’d definitely recommend trying The Winemaker!

Hardest room at this location, imo. 3 people is probably the sweet spot. Fun with a mildly creepy vibe! There’s a certain type of puzzle I often see used in Escape Manor rooms that I find super annoying and that I saw twice in this escape!! It requires an insane amount of brainstorming combination orders and inputs. Just feels like a time sink, but maybe that’s on purpose since this is meant for a larger group. Don’t know if I’m alone in feeling like this lol, someone back me up here.

Booked for 2 people. Room had a bunch puzzles and locks, and a few electronic puzzles (sensor and mag lock release)

The reveals were not as exciting as I would hope for in an escape room and some of the puzzles were very tedious.
