Amazing experience! The GM, Amber, modified our time based on us getting there early and was excellent. The room is fantastic with a lot of fun and unique puzzles. A good mix of thinking and physical challenges. Can't wait to try their other rooms.

Love love loved this room! Highly recommend. The details of this room are so cute I wish I could have spent more time appreciating them. Very unique mechanics and gameplay. So whimsical. Need more rooms like this and less scary rooms. Would do it again in a heart beat!

A fully immersive experience in a one room game even the means on how to solve the clues adds to the experience. Balance of manual locked and high tech pieces. After 30 games there were moments in this room that I never experienced before. 2-4 people is perfect. So much fun!

Gameplay

This was fun and interactive with a great story. For all ages.

Atmosphere

Awesome🤩

Customer service

Great GM! From the first second stepping in the building into the room and sharing their passion for escape games/design.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

While I’ve done similar themes, this was a step up. I truly enjoyed the whole experience.

Story

Magical. Family friendly and suitable to any age/ocassion.

Difficulty

Easy

Easy to medium tbh we got stumped a couple times;)

Game tech

High tech

Great props and technical innovation. The book:) the lighting effects.

Ideal number of players

2-4 max is plenty so everyone can help without feeling left out.

Scary

Not scary

A couple noises, props, or lighting scenes could scare little ones. Not scary, but in a curious gotta check it out fun way.

Minimum age

I say 8, because that’s about how old my youngest son was on his first game. Any age can really enjoy this one.

Was anything broken?

No issues

Live actors

Physically active

Somewhat

Casting spells, moving around to find clues, but nothing strenuous. Some bending required on this one. Iykyk

Accessibility

There is plenty of space for wheel chair access and to fit a good number of people. It a fairly big room. There are things necessary to hear, but visuals can help too. There is a small bit color blindness may be affected just fyi.

Easy to find location

Yes

I’m aware of Grapevine, but using a map app helps 💯

Parking

Easy

Lots of parking as it’s a fairly big lot.

Safety

Yes

Yes, I felt safe. Good fun, and I laughed….props and jokes…and myself.

Thank you for your feedback! Yes, Main Street rent is no joke, so our square footage is limited! We have to get creative with our square footage and use storylines and playability to the max.! So honored that you enjoyed the theatrical experience of Enchanted Cottage! - Amber & Russ, owners

The premise of the Enchanted Cottage is that you were hired by this wizard to help him clean his cottage as the Crystal Ball Cleaners. The experience started off strong and there were many parts of the room that helped remind us of our tasks. However, the puzzles didn’t really match the story. Some of the things we had to do were just to cross off the to-do list, rather than progress the story. My group of 7 also bypassed some of the puzzles because we did things out of order. My opinion is that Enchanted Cottage is their weakest room, compared to FocusTec Labs and Wine Vault. It is still a solid room that I’m glad I completed but I would recommend the other two rooms higher to other folks. I could also tell that some of the puzzles had wear and tear.

Thank you for your feedback denicee. I am sorry that you did not enjoy your time in the Enchanted Cottage. We try very hard to keep every puzzle on theme with our rooms so we feel bad that you felt like they did not match up. Yes, I agree, Enchanted Cottage is 100% non-linear so you can progress at different rates. So honored to have you as a customer and we appreciate your honest feedback. We will keep your thoughts in mind as we build future adventures. Amber & Russ, owners

A very cute room. Also different than a lot of rooms that we have done. The owners have created their own puzzles which makes this an interesting room. We will definitely be back to do the rest. Very nice staff. Rachel was great!

Ron was our Game Master, super friendly dude. We actually recognized each other from a couple years ago when we played at Grapevine Escape. The Enchanted Cottage was a very fun game with a good flow and a great use of space. It even had a few elements we had not quite seen before in an escape room. Highly recommend this one!
