The Dorm

This is a different kind of escape room. The story takes priority over scrambling around for keys, locks, and cryptex. There are clues to follow, but some are not intuitive. This is for people who don't care about finish time.

This was an entertaining story-based experience that we had a whole lot of fun being immersed in. The GMs are very clear about this room not being a traditional escape room, which was both perfectly fine and a nice change of pace from regular escape rooms. I think this room is best experienced when you decide to follow the story with more vigor than what’s probably necessary. Defo worth the experienced!

I was a bit hesitant when I read the reviews about Cloud escape rooms are different than usual escape rooms, but I am glad that I kept an open mind and it was actually a very fun experience. To all the other players that say this is not an escape room, y’all have to keep an open mind. All escape rooms I played so far all have similar set up, honestly, we need something new and creative to play with. I tried the Dorm and like the whole concept about following the story line and solving the puzzles. If you want to experience something more fun, stimulating and different than regular escape rooms, cloud escape is definitely worth it

While not a traditional escape room, the dorm still follows the blue print of solving puzzles to progress. I enjoyed the immersion aspect as I’m not a fan of rooms with dozens of combination locks that don’t match the theme. Puzzles ranged from easy to challenging. I think it’s an interesting new take on escape rooms that focus more on an overall experience and story similar to some video games.

We might have liked it more if it was not labeled as an escape room. It's not an escape room. It is a story experience where you discover plot points to drive the story to completion. It's not a bad story though! Some strange mechanics though... There are touch sensors that are hidden behind writing and pictures that will stall your progress as there's nothing but your game master giving a tip that you have to actually touch the item. Definitely an innovative take but a little too far off the path to still be called an escape room.

Overall a fun interactive story. This room relied heavily on recorded voice over material which slowed down the playability considerably. There was a lot of information to keep track of as well as low diversity in the types of puzzles to be solved.
