This escape room is mostly isolated puzzles.l. the puzzles are built into the themes but don't interact with the overall story. There isn't much to figure out with the puzzles, what you see is what you get. Very easy if you have escape room experience
Puzzles and rooms didn't really meld into the overall themeing and there was no sense of plot structure

We had an amazing time! The room is very hard attack with cool puzzles, and absolutely stunning props. Extended time as well as multiple rooms might the experience fun for the whole group. No spoilers but we really loved the second chamber!
I loved the story and the flow of the game
Gorgeous props and decor
Great GM

Pros of this experience: Well functioning equipment Variety of puzzles Good set design Good DM Clear mechanic to see how much time you had Cons of this experience: Puzzles didn't reinforce story much Many very loud puzzles, where when solving multiple ones at once, the sounds overlap. The puzzles did not feel very difficult. We got all 4 cards (for finishing all puzzles in each room) and used only about half the available time. Though, for reference, we had 5 experienced escape room goers.
Gameplay was ok-- variety of puzzles

Almost all puzzles involved red/green lights, which might be difficult for color blindness. Also, the sounds involved with the puzzles were very loud at times.

Very different from a classic escape room, yet super fun! There are a lot of things to do, so I would recommend coming with at least 4-6 people if you really want to escape. There are multiple chambers, all incredibly immersive, with puzzles ranging from relatively straightforward to complex multi-step challenges that will keep your group busy for a while. We really enjoyed the ambiance of all the rooms; they are very distinct from each other, keeping you wondering what will come next. I also appreciate the 120-minute experience, which makes it an amazing value, especially for Seattle.

We had so much fun doing their rooms! As mentioned by other reviewers the rooms are difficult but totally doable. We completed 4/4 rooms snd even had some time to spare in rooms 3 and 4. Absolutely stunning decorations and props. I just wish there was more than one we would definitely come back and do another one! The game master was extremely helpful and friendly, she made our experience smooth and even went through the rooms with us after we finished.

Uninteresting puzzles and only one game master so they were multitasking between the rooms. We'd have to ask for hints multiple times before we got one. Didn't feel immersed like I do with other escape rooms.

The game play was uninteresting. The puzzles were all basically arcade games. The poor game master was by himself so it was difficult for him to keep up with us asking for hints. The games were also not well taken care of and the markings that were put on certain objects had been rubbed off. It is a really interesting concept but it needs to be updated and better executed. The initial clue cards needed to be more helpful too. We only finished one room out of all four rooms. I have no problem if I can't finish a room but I want to feel challenged. With the rooms we lost we just felt frustrated. The game master also asked us for a tip at the end of our experience and I am very confused by it. I've never known an escape room or any experience to ask for tips. Especially when the game master barely does anything.
Our rating does not reflect the game master at all. He was as helpful as he could be given he was manning four rooms at once as well as payment.

Hard
The games were all hard but it wasn't a challenging hard. It felt like a finicky hard where you wouldn't get it right even if you knew how to solve the puzzle.

There were supposed to be some writings on some pieces of the games. The markings were not redrawn when needed and most markings had rubbed off and were illegible.

I'd say it's low on accessibility. They use red and green lights to denote certain things. Other games use multiple colors for matching. And you go through some doorways that aren't wheelchair accessible.

This room was pretty good. The game master was amazing, fully in character the whole time it made it so enjoyable. Very well done and cleanly set up.
This is more like 4 separate escape rooms 20min each.

This was pretty different than the typical escape room, lots of thinking puzzles. We enjoyed it.
