Orbite [Orbit]

Loved it. This room and the other room we did (Kappa) made me want to try all the rest of their rooms immediately, but we were sadly at the end of the day. This room is almost completely non-linear (with a few gatekeeping puzzles), and takes a few minutes to get oriented with the pacing/structure of the room. Once you know the flow all 5 of us were all pitching in, teaming up in different combos of us, collaborating and brainstorming what to do, just a real flow state which I appreciated the room facilitating. There were some tech and puzzles (or at least variations on puzzles) that I hadn’t seen before. Yeah just a big fan. Bring at least 4 people though, there’s a lot to do, no idea how 2 would get everything done.

The tech-themed settings are stunning, and the story is really interesting! However, it’s very difficult, so I wouldn’t recommend it for two players. There are a lot of steps involved.

Technically, we didn’t succeed because our game master misled us by telling us we hadn’t solved the puzzle (even though we realized later that we had)! Too bad, because it was a fun experience

An escape room that requires you to perform several tasks in a specific order, but it’s very hard to figure out what that order is…and we’ve completed over 30 games.

It's super cool and futuristic—it really feels like you're there! It's high-tech without any locks, but it's not linear, and there are lots of puzzles to solve while moving from room to room! In short, it's fun, but not exactly what I expected 🤪
