Many consider Prison Break our most difficult escape room. Players are split into two different prison cells and must work together to get out of a 1950s style prison. A successful escape will include a sneaky trip to the warden’s office. An unsuccessful escape will land you in prison forever.

Yes, those are real prison toilets….what can we say? We are obsessed with creating realistic environments.

Escape room

Wow, very nice room, but very hard! Puzzles in last room are very difficult.

This game is all about teamwork! It really got us communicating in different ways. There were so many elements in this room I've never seen before! I was super impressed.

One of our jail cells wasn’t locked from the start and we had to relock the cell door. When we finally got to the stage to unlock our cells, we felt a button (we cannot see from the other side so everything is by feel through the cell opening/door). It took over 30 seconds and even after we hit the hint button because it definitely did not seem right after exiting. It definitely seemed like some sort of emergency exit button. So, we reconfined ourselves to our rooms and tried to force lock the jail cell/door again. 

One of the later puzzles was a combination lock that was completely unlocked and gave us access to a new room, so it was either try to figure out the code and relock to reset it (could not relock unless we had the answer) or just proceed. However, to get the combo, the item was very flimsy (cloth) and when you have puzzles that need lining something up, it should not be stretchy or mendable. 

I think we can all agree that props were not meant to be broken or manhandled, but there was one aspect that we got directed too (out of order) to break open. This is very anti-escape room like as 99% of rooms will tell us to not use force. The way to complete this puzzle rendered the object completely unusable for the next party and something they had to replace each time (although a trivial item used as a medium it still very unintuitive). The biggest aspect is that this gave us an object that gave us access to another object that was the guide to the rest of the room. However, our game master gave us the answer to a future puzzle that could’ve been answered through this guide. This really derailed the flow of the room and he apologized at the end. 

We were a bit frazzled and frustrated so we forgot to ask a few questions. His coworker covered for him at points and obviously she wouldn’t be aware of our progress and issues that came up.
