98 escape rooms
Some 60 Out rooms are great but this one was not worth the $45 a person (with a discount!) that we paid. The room felt old and tired. As mentioned in another review all the pretty undersea atmospheric theming that you see in the promotional photo isn’t working in the game so you just have black windows with the screens turned off. Several of the puzzles had wonky tech, where we solved things but they didn’t trigger right away, confusing us if we had actually done the correct thing. Makes me wonder if it was on a manual trigger and if our GM, who was manning another escape room at the same time as ours, just wasn’t paying attention? (At one point they accidentally gave us a clue for a different room, which led to further confusion.) One of the puzzles involved a digital number screen that was impossible to read, which was very frustrating. We also thought several of the puzzles didn’t really make logical sense as to what you were supposed to do with them. This room also relies heavily on both darkness and a fair amount of reading as an element, which I am not a fan of. Unless you’re a 60 Out completist I’d skip this one.
