Really cool set design and interesting puzzles. Some things were a little easy to meta game a little early, so there were times I might’ve known the answer to a lock before having the lock to access. Also as every escape artists knows - you may get hung up on something very simple after breezing past the tricky parts. But super fun and challenging game!
Very cool set design!

Tons of puzzles and nostalgia await you in this expansive escape room experience. Authentic video store vibes as we completed a boat load of puzzles in this well curated room. I will say it can be a bit overwhelming as I looked around and saw clue after clue, and the puzzles continued to expand the overall game solution. We really enjoyed this one. You need to move at a pretty fast pace, we escaped with less than 10 minutes remaining. I was actually a little bit nervous that we may not make it as we moved into the last act of the room, but thankfully everything started flowing quickly for us.
Loved the vibe and nostalgia… felt like old school video rental store

Final Time Machine puzzle was interesting
Hard
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but we found this to be harder than the room that was rated at a 9. Definitely harder than the 6 rating.

This room was so much fun!! The theme was amazing very true to blockbuster! This room had us running as it was only two of us but we managed to get out with only 30 seconds left to spare. We did need a few hints as it’s hard to determine where to start initially but overall the room was great and fun! 10/10 would recommend.

This escape room was so wholesome, nostalgic, and of course fun. We loved it. We had a group with various experience levels and everyone had fun.
Brought me right back to the video store that was in this town growing up!!

This room was FUN and one of my top experiences. Our GM was great (very welcoming, attentive, and respectful). I can't remember her name, but i believe she's the manager or assistant manager. Back to the game...I thought the room design was incredible. It was very nostalgic and made me feel like I was literally walking into a Blockbuster video store. The puzzles were cool and there were a couple that was a nice twist, but nothing too spectacular. There was one puzzle that had us a little stumped at first, but we were able to get through the room with minimal clues.

Three experienced players had a blast!! There were a few tricky spots but no clues needed. Super nostalgic- just in time for my 25th high school reunion!!

Good room. Theme was very cute and brought me back to my childhood. A few tricky parts but for the most part fairly straightforward clues. Will def. Come and check out their other rooms I do hate the no picture rule at cloak and dagger rooms, such a buzz kill but otherwise great
