It’s expansive up here in the North Pole! There's Santa's Workshop, the town square, the Naughty Or Nice Headquarters, and many other places of interest as well. These places aren’t near each other, however. Many miles stretch between locations. That’s why the North Pole has an enchanted train – the Holiday Express – manned by our very own Railroad Engineer: Charlie. The Holiday Express travels between each destination every day! With so many jobs to do before Christmas, we called on you and your elf friends! This year, you have been assigned to Present Fulfillment. Your job is simple: acquire the final shipment of presents from Santa's workshop and use the Holiday Express to deliver it to the Townsquare. Load the shipment of presents into Santa's toy bag just in time for the First Gift Of Christmas ceremony, and kick off Christmas as we know it! Well, it was supposed to be simple. It was only 30 minutes into your long journey from Santa's Workshop to the town square when the locomotive shuddered and came to a screeching halt. Lights started to flicker, and a frigid, dense layer of air settled within the cabin. Your priorities have now shifted: get to the bottom of what happened! Is someone trying to sabotage Christmas? Where's Charlie? You have 70 minutes to get the train up and running, and ensure the presents are still accounted for. If you don't finish in 70 minutes or less, you won't have enough time to make the ceremony, and Christmas will be ruined for millions! Time to burn the midnight oil, Elves! It's all up to you!

The game itself was an interesting mashup of trains and saving Christmas. There was one puzzle that seemed to either not work or it was forgotten to put the clues somewhere because they were handed through the entry door. That’s a pet peeve of mine and I think there are a million different ways to convey a message then breaking immersion and handing something through the entry door Other then that, we all had fun, a couple puzzles were unique in their own right making this a good Christmas game to play.

Do not overlook this room! Two common escape room themes of Christmas and Trains, yet they have blended them into one of the more memorable times you'll have! Some of the puzzles we've never seen before and everything had a nice holiday Winter vibe. I think they even piped in cold air?
Wonderful flow, cleverly themed puzzles-and many were absolutely original, that we hadn't encountered before!
All aboard! One truly felt like you were in a train car and with animated windows and sound effects, you felt Wintery! (We did it in May in Texas!)
They couldn't have been more welcoming!

They took two common escape room themes: Christmas and Trains and combined them for a truly enjoyable experience!
A decent story. I think we caused the train delay getting to Santa's workshop so we were responsible for making things right!

I imagine with colors, sound clues and a few narrow spaces, this would be hard for those with disabilities

Such a cute Christmas room. We had 3 people including our 12 year old and didn’t need hints. She solved most of the puzzles which was perfect for us. There was even hot chocolate! Wear warm clothes because they did make it feel like the North Pole! Love Escape Hour!
