It is the year 2024 but the world as you know is not the same. In this alternative reality, coal and steam power the world. As a result the technology that you are accustomed to simply does not exist. No computers, bright lights, or lasers. And the reason for this lack of progress is not an accident. Greedy and influential masters of the coal industry suppress any inventions that challenge the power of coal. Inventors vanish mysteriously before their groundbreaking ideas see the light of day. It's up to you to bring the world to a brighter future and get the blueprints of this new invention out of the lab of your scientist friend who was arrested when rumors about his new invention started spreading. You have one hour to secure the blueprints of a new, clean electricity generator. Act quickly, before sinister forces intervene.

Was anything broken?
There was a computer system snafu with the first puzzle, but they reset it from the control center and we moved forwards. Apparently room had only been open for 2 months and there were a couple of kinks they were ironing out. GM said they would relay feedback to owner for improvement.

Accessibility
Business was on the second floor of the building. I do not recall if there was an elevator. There was one threshold that would need to be crossed. Fairly low but it would be cumbersome for a wheelchair.
Easy to find location

Tiny sign in an office park window. From there, the signage was clear.

A fun gear-based dystopian steampunk room that exceeded our expectations! The room makes excellent use of light and darkness to create wow moments and clever brain teasers. The set is well-constructed and the style fits the steampunk vibe to a T. Unfortunately, some of the tech didn’t work completely. That said, the use of tech was smart and inventive! We did this room for National Escape Room Day 2024, and it was worth it! Best room at this location to get your brain gears grinding!

All of the games at riddlebox have been on a higher plane than most. Immersive atmosphere and puzzles that make sense with the story. I would highly recommend any of them.

Immersive and interesting. The effects of the steam punk theme were carefully throughout and very well done
