We had a fun experience. It was definitely not quite as impressive as some of the big city rooms we have done, and felt quite amateur compared to them. We love all levels of escape rooms tho and definitely still had a good time. Overall my cons were the hint system, which there wasn’t one besides exciting the room to go find the GM at the front desk and ask for hint, then have the game master follow you back into the room to help. Also there was no way to keep track of time (besides on our phone) which was totally ok, but not the professional standards we are used to. Most of the puzzles were simple and fun, but some of them didn’t have much common sense and felt like a bit of a stretch. My last complaint is that the final puzzle to get out was flawed, and we were not able to escape without the game master coming in to reset it, which totally ruined the escape experience. Overall though and the Pros of the room, it was fun, and had some pretty enjoyable puzzle too. The room (especially the second on) was definitely cool looking, for this level of business, and was set pretty well for the theme. The game master was friendly and helpful. She did have another group she was helping at the same time (of what sounded like hundreds of 10 year old boys lol, the walls were not sound proof) but overall we enjoyed the experience! 👍🏼
The overall flow wasn’t quite there. We found ourselves saying “now what” a few times, because the progression wasn’t hinted at. The last puzzle you need to get out was flawed to the point of us needing the game master to reset it so we could escape. The way it was designed we would not have been able to get out otherwise. (it lost us about 10 minutes of escape time). Also there were a few puzzles that were not common sense. We had to ask for help, when it was explained we still were like “what?”
It was pretty good for this size of the business. I quit liked the look of the second room, but it definitely had an amateur feel being all made of plywood
The GM was helpful. She wasn’t super game immersive (like other GMs we’ve had) or enthusiastic, but she was friendly

This escape room is much less flashy than big city rooms we’ve played, it has a more amateur feel, but that being said we still had a lot of fun doing it. There were some cool puzzles and had a “local” theme which I liked. There isn’t really a hint system besides just leaving the room and asking for help, and you can also hear everything going on outside of the room, but that’s just the space I guess. No sound proofing. There are some creative puzzles but there are also a couple red herrings which were annoying (I really dislike blatant red herrings). Also there were a couple design flaws in some of the puzzles at the end that could have a simple fix. But all in all, we still enjoyed the room. No big wow moments, and the story didn’t grab us (hence not a lot of immersion) but everything was clean and worked (nothing broken) and there were multiple rooms, which I always love. I left feeling glad I did it, and we all had fun
The game master was friendly but she also had a huge group of kids in their other room so it was pretty disruptive because we could hear the kids loudly, and when we needed a hint, we had to go out of the our room, and get her attention to ask for a hint. She was super helpful though, when she was able
No
It was fine. Not memorable but not bad.
