Mark as done to rate
Deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest lies an ancient temple, shrouded in mystery and guarded by an age-old curse. It holds the secrets of a long-forgotten tribal chief whose spirit still lingers within its walls. Explorers have long been drawn to the temple through the years, but none have succeeded in lifting the curse. The latest to attempt this daunting task was the renowned archaeologist, Sir Jonas Grey. Sir Grey's expedition drew attention worldwide as he searched for the elusive Amulet of the Sun, said to hold the key to breaking the curse. Despite his experience, Sir Grey's efforts concluded in failure, leaving the temple's secrets, and the dreaded curse, unresolved. Now, it's up to a new group of explorers to unravel the mysteries of the temple and succeed where all others have faltered. Will you be the one to lead the final expedition and, finally, lift the curse?

This was our first room at puzzle connect at it was absolutely amazing. Certainly in contention for the best room I have played in Ocean/Monmouth County with the highlight being the special effects. Only small critique is the ten person maximum feels high for a room of this size. Would recommend trying to be six or under if playing as experienced players. Can’t wait to play more Puzzle Connect rooms in the future

This room was fantastic. The details and craftsmanship were on point. The puzzles felt the right level of difficulty while also still feeling challenging. The story was really interesting and a lot of fun.

The flow felt very even. There weren't really any point where we didn't know what needed to be worked on.

Yes
There where many mechanics and puzzles that felt unique and were really well crafted.
Story
The story and design went hand in hand. Nothing felt out of place and it felt like you were really exploring a cursed tomb.
Difficulty
Hard
This was on of the harder ones I have done but it was not impossible if you have experience in escape rooms.
Game tech
Many sensors but also mechanical where things needed to be moved. I felt there was a fair amount of both.

We 1,000% recommend not only this room, but this location. I’ve completed over 50 escape rooms, and this would be my top 3 (and it’s not third place). The owners have been so supportive, delightful, and amazing. This room was filled with multiple surprises and throughout solving the puzzle it felt like we were on a curated movie set. I will be coming back to bring my family, friends and hopefully convincing my co-workers to do this fun team building activity. Also, this room is great for spooky lovers like myself. Don’t even think twice, book every room at this location!!!!

Another exceptional game at PuzzleConnect. Very immersive and seamless flow. Puzzles were challenging but you had all the tools to solve them with a little thinking.

We did this room as a family with our two kids, 12 & 13, myself my husband and our 21 year old nephew. We all enjoyed this escape room very much, we have done several rooms at this location and other by companies and found this room to be immersive and challenging, definitely one of our favorite rooms to date! Everyone was able to contribute and we were able to work well to solve the puzzles together. Definitely recommend this room and the other rooms at Puzzle Connect!

Really fun room. One the easier side, but the puzzles were logical and worked well, and the ambiance and atmosphere were unmatched. There were five of us in total (all adults with escape room experience), and we all had a great time. I'll definitely be doing more rooms at PuzzleConnect.
