We absolutely loved this escape room! We were going to do this room a few months ago, but were put off by the seated component and that it was “spooky”. However we decided to do it today and were so glad we did! It was one of the best rooms we have done!! Even though you’re seated, it doesn’t feel weird or silly, it’s extremely well done. The spooky parts were more some simple jump scares but nothing overly scary and no gore or blood. There was a live actor, but they were not scary or creepy at all. They were just “there”, but not in a way to scare or distract you. The puzzles were all linear, so it was easy to do as a seated team and allowed us to all work really well together. It was a really well thought out room, with a lot of cleverly put together puzzles. If you have any hesitation, don’t! Do the room! You won’t regret it! It’s absolutely a fantastic room!! We’re just sad we’ve done both their rooms and have to wait a year or so until they make another room!!!

Gameplay

The gameplay was great - from the minute the room started right to the end, the puzzles and story flowed seamlessly.

Atmosphere

Even though it’s a seated experience and you’re in the same room the whole time, it didn’t feel like a small area. Every part of the room was cleverly used, and the room design, props and clues were well done and sophisticated

Customer service

Our game master was the same we had for SweetHearts room, and he was great - very immersive and passionate about the escape rooms.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

It’s completely seated, and you stay in the same chair and same room the entire time. While this could seem boring, it was actually brilliantly done! You didn’t feel like you were missing anything by sitting down. The puzzles and clues were well done and every part of the room was used. Very very cleverly done.

Story

Some escape room stories get lost and you almost forget the “aim” of the escape room, but not this one! All the game play was well linked to the “story”

Difficulty

Medium

We had 5 people and have decent escape room experience, so while the puzzles were challenging, we didn’t struggle too much and were able to finish with no clues used. I think if you only had 2 people or were new to escape rooms, you might find it quite hard.

4-6 would be best.

Scary

Spooky

It is advertised as having jump scares and a live actor. Without spoiling anything, the live actor isn’t scary at all, more just “there”. The jump scares are more when puzzles are solved rather than as an attempt to scare people. There was no gore or violence. We had a 14yr old with us who found the jump scares “startling” but not terrifying at all. The room is also quite dark.

Minimum age

12

12 if your kid is ok with spooky themes (the escape room is about communicating with a ghost), and some mild jump scares.

Was anything broken?

No

Live actors

Without spoiling anything, the live actor isn’t scary at all, more just “there”.

Played with two players and had an amazing time in the Seance room. The linear escape room, atmosphere, and seated playing created a great, focused, and immersive experience. The game master was fantastic. All puzzles were unique, challenging, but very much doable. Would recommend!

Seance is a creative and unique room. Although you are seated and in a relatively small room for the game, your engagement and immersion never feel restricted. The set design, creative puzzles and general ambiance of the room compliments the plot and it all works together so well. The hosts are always so lovely and clearly passionate about what they do. It was a fantastic room, and I will always recommend this escape room and The Cool Space!

One of my favorite escape room experiences. It went above and beyond my expectations. There was a story that did not feel tacked on but was engaging and intriguing. There were some moments of magic that were just beautifully done and the puzzles were amazingly satisfying. They turned this one up to 11 and it showed. Bravo

Gameplay

It flowed, it was thematic. Can't say enough good things.

Atmosphere

Amazing, on theme, so much care and attention was put into it

Putting down high tech due to the maybe work that would have gone into the lighting plan and sound design.

Even though it was a completely seated experience, it was so very well put together and flowed so amazingly well, days later I am still enthralled about how good this room was.

Had a great time at this room in a group of 4. I really loved all the puzzles, even if they were linear. There were brief moments which could be scary for some, but it was mostly fine for my group. It's incredibly innovative in being an almost fully seated experience, and my only wish was that it there wasn't more of a brilliantly designed and themed room to explore.
