Loved the cool tech and variety of puzzles that kept our team hopping. I'm also a mystery fan so solving that narrative was a bonus. Great job building a cohesive story.

very good used of a reskinned room, but its an entirely new theme and puzzles. the sound and lighting cues helped progress the narrative very well. puzzles were clever, intuitive and had alot of layers to them.

Great gameplay. All the puzzles are very much integrated into the story and make sense. The timer stops and the room makes you pay attention to the story at each step, which was fantastic. Puzzles were great, and while the means of getting to it involved a lot of tech, all puzzles for the most part led to a lock. Great use of space, and quite a few unique puzzles in there. This is an absolutely fantastic room.

We did the Christmas version of this room and were blown away by how different this new room was. We found this room quite challenging and needed a few hints. Great story with lots of detail. Challenging puzzles. Exodus did a great job keeping us on our toes here and we almost didn’t make it out, which is unusual for us. We had 4 people and we were all working hard. Great story and puzzles. Definitely recommend.

It was a refreshing murder mystery room. I’ve done a few of these types in the past but this one is the best. The production quality was great! The clock paused for some storytelling which was nice. The puzzles were pretty straight forward and were satisfying to solve. If you did Clark’s Crazy Christmas you will notice some familiar elements. This room is a reskin but it feels like a different experience. This room is worth checking out.
Gameplay
Non linear. There were moments of narration but the timer stops during those .
Atmosphere
The set design was good! Special fx are minimal but works for what they were going for. The props were well made.

Very fun room that was super engaging and well themed throughout. The storytelling and set design was amazing and there was a good mixture of tech and old school locks. 1 puzzle towards the end fell flat for me but otherwise a good assortment of different puzzles and some good non-linear gameplay. Would definitely recommend! Side note our game master Ryan was great!! Super fun and friendly!

I will be honest, my teenage sons actually carried us in this room. We've done a lot of rooms and I typically feel like I'm solving a lot of the room... not today, they were crushing it. The story concept is great. The set design is very immersive. Solid puzzles, but challenging.
