Shhh!

Most escape room intro videos are kinda boring, but this one was really cool. It rooted the storyline in local lore, as well as set a spooky tone that would carry on throughout the entire experience. They should make similar videos for their other two rooms! Also, using a separate room specifically for onboarding is a smart move, since it removes the distraction of being inside the escape room itself. Shhh! was a sprawling, multilevel exploration that ranged from mildly unsettling to downright twisted. It was pretty hard too, so I’d recommend a group of 3-4 experienced enthusiasts. Set design was top notch, convincing, and super creepy, and I was genuinely frightened during certain portions. I feel like the puzzles were more search heavy than the average escape room, and a particular dexterity task was especially memorable. If you’re a taller individual, watch yourself on the upper level! I whacked my head pretty badly at one point. This room is a prequel to the other two rooms at Escape Warehouse, but you won’t notice unless you pay VERY close attention. We didn’t pick up on it, but our GM explained the connection to us. It should be much more apparent, as this is a huge missed opportunity for world building. I’ll just post this non-spoilery teaser pic

Rating: 4.5/5 - Great set and puzzles, worthy of the 90 min runtime Pros: ➕ Set kept going and going, so many rooms. ➕ Great theming/set quality/immersion, it really felt like an old, creepy school with lots of little details. ➕ Love a little bit of nostalgia ➕ Puzzles were fun, there was a nice variety, and things were well integrated into the set. ➕ Good use of multiple floors and vertical space. ➕ Lots of tech with some mechanical locks mixed in. ➕ Some puzzles require teamwork/communication. ➕ Lighting and audio effects added to the immersion ➕ Interesting storyline that loosely ties in with their other rooms, the ending of the room was satisfying enough. ➕ Some tense moments with minor jump scares. ➕ GM was friendly and great to talk to, though we didn't need much help during the game. Room for improvement: ➖ I think scary rooms are almost always better when there is an actor to ramp up the tension and scares. This personally wasn't that scary for me, but it definitely would be scary for many other players. We played as a team of 4 enthusiasts and finished with well over 10 min left and little to no hints, it is not a difficult room, I'd recommend 3-4 players. My ranking of all 3 rooms here so far: 1. Shhh! 2. Unidentified: The Case of Mystery Gates 3. Hide + Seek

Just do it. You’ll thank us later.

A new favorite for our group. We have seen more extravagant rooms with bigger/more extreme spaces but we genuinely felt like this room was good from start to finish with all 5 of us staying involved the whole time.

Love it love love it! My friend was very very jumpy but honestly I would love to have had it scarier. Very fun to play very immersive.

Absolutely amazing room! The effects and scale blew my mind. 3rd time through this room. First time i did not escape. Year later did it and made it out and then did it with my children. They had so much fun too.

PHENOMENAL ROOM!!!

This was one of those experiences that had my jaw on the floor as we progressed further and further into the game. The scale of some of the sets was wild! Puzzles were fun and intuitive and I haven’t played a non-actor scary game that actually scared me in quite some time! This is a must do for horror/set escape players!
