This was a much more standard and polished room than Organized Chaos. With 4 experienced people, it was a little short, though during the game it felt like a good density of puzzles. There seemed like more parallelization than an average game, so potentially good for larger groups (though of course then people won't get to see things). One of the props towards the end was very fiddly to get working - we knew exactly what we wanted to do, did it, and nothing happened. Even after the GM confirmed we were doing the right thing, it still took us a bit to get it to work. This isn't the sort of difficulty that's fun. Another broken thing was a "stained glass" light panel - although this was explained away in-game as the apothecary being old, nothing else was really damaged, so it felt out of place. And apparently it's been broken for years, which contributes to the feeling that the company isn't prioritizing repairs.

Such a fun one! We did not escape (ran out of time on the last puzzle) but left feeling pretty accomplished as there were a good amount of puzzles and we completed the majority. I would say this is a room that is better for bigger groups where you can divide and conquer more.. with two people we simply did not have enough time. Great set and puzzles!

Really enjoyed this room! Great set, fun puzzles and helpful game master. Recommended!

I loved this room!! A little different to other escape rooms we’ve done but it was really cool!

I loved this room! I went with 2 other people and deeply enjoyed that we could split up and conquer. Between the 3 of us, there were more than enough puzzles to do and I loved how clever and interesting they were. Would definitely come back to do again

Fun game and a great GM. Fun time with the puzzles. Really nice visit and we look forward to their other rooms.

I feel like this was a promising introduction to the Escape room scene in Boston. The puzzles were clever but not necessarily easy and the non-linear nature of these puzzles would lend itself well to a larger group who could pair off to solve things. It’s got a great dark academia feel. I appreciated there was only one lock and key puzzle and was delighted with the “Magic tricks”. The only puzzle we were less fond of was finding the place. Boston has rules for signage on its historical buildings so you have to look for the unassuming wooden door with a three on it between the Chipotle and the Bruegger’s Bagles (as of 4/2024) and go up to the second floor. Had we known that our escape room adventure started on the street… All in all, this was a fun room and we will recommend this to our Escape room friends.

Fun concept, poor execution. Some props were excellently made but a few were fiddly and amateurish. One puzzle has potential for a major sequence break that makes an interesting prop redundant; one potentially novel puzzle was not properly reset, making the solution trivial; and a couple puzzles were so straightforward, I wouldn't even call them puzzles.

Fun room, nice staff. Overall good experience ☺️ pretty non-linear game.

This was a fun room that gets you to think. Fun challenging puzzles throughout the game. A little confusing because they're is no chronological order of puzzles and one puzzle doesn't lead to another but overall this was will put together.
