We opted for the longer version of this room and were not disappointed. The first challenge starts at the door to enter the room. After solving, you gain entry to THE North Pole and Santa's command center and toy workshop. Lots of challenges to solve and some require augmented reality from Santa's tablet. Not a linear game so everyone can be working on something. It seemed odd at first to be playing a holiday themed game in April but once inside you will quickly forget it's not December and understand why they opted to keep this room around longer. Great for families and kids will love it.
Lots of fun and non-linear so everyone can play at the same time.
Set design, special effects, and props are immersive and very well executed. You feel like you're in Santa's command center.
Customer service
I cannot say enough about how great the people are. After playing Under Pressure on the weekend, our GM Addison agreed to come in on Wednesday when they are normally closed to run two rooms for us because it was my birthday and we were visiting from Florida. The owner Roger Siegrist then came in to show us some insider secrets and BTS.
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
We've played a quite a few holiday themed rooms but the North Pole high tech command center with computers made this one very different. Augmented reality was also something we hadn't seen in any other rooms.
Pretty typical help Santa get toys ready for Christmas story but the execution was well above similar rooms.
This was a very challenging room even with 3 people.
Very high tech. Possibly the most high tech we've played. Some challenges required the use of augmented reality using Santa's tablet.
We escape with 3 but an extra set of hands would have been helpful.
Great room for kids especially if they believe in Santa.
