I did this room as a group of 2, which I only recommend if you’re both very experienced and you are willing to accept some hints — we barely finished in time. The puzzles are pretty challenging. My only real complaint is that if you do some of the puzzles out of order, you won’t know you’re doing it right because you need to do something else before the next puzzle can notify you that you completed it.

An absolutely huge room with tons to do- we almost didn't get out not because the room was especially difficult, but because there was just one thing after another to keep doing. Exciting from start to finish, this is a great room for larger groups.

Their hardest room, 15% completion rate. Our threesome was teamed up with two other groups for a total of eight which was a bit chaotic. We came very close to solving it, spent too long in the first portion. Some of the cluing could be better, hard to tell with such a large group. When puzzles are completed, a notification sound plays, with so many of us in the room we often weren't sure what had been completed. Decent room, older game so some of the puzzles are showing their age. Our GM was fine, but with just her there, often we had to wait for hints while she was handling other customers.

I do a lot of rooms in the Orlando area and this is right on par with some of the inventive rooms I’ve done there. Puzzles were involved and creative. Theming was excellent

This room had potential, but the entire experience was hindered by the employees who were in the control room smoking weed. Not only was the smell permeating the room, but they were obviously baked out of their minds and often took up to 10 minutes to give a hint. In general, the solutions were novel and the room is immersive. I just can't recommend this (as a family escaper.)
Beyond terrible. Worst we've ever had.

There was some really cool changing/morphing of items as the room progressed.

I would say anywhere from 2-4. More than that and the room would be too cramped and there wouldn't be enough to do.

Somewhat accessible - rather small rooms and you'd struggle if you were visually or hearing impaired.

It's Boston. Take the T.

If I could do in between thumbs down and up, I would. This game looks beautiful, but that’s all it has going for it. The puzzles are illogical at best, and our experienced team needed to ask for numerous clues just to get an answer that came out of nowhere. In addition, some of the puzzles make you feel like you’re breaking the set, and combined with the fact that a lot of the tech is faulty, it’s not a good time. If they just scrapped all the puzzles and went in fresh, this game might be salvageable.
Awfully designed puzzles that make almost no sense.
It looked quite nice.
The staff here are so nice. I feel bad about how awful the game is.

Drops as soon as you start solving puzzles, as many other average escape rooms do.

But only because of the puzzles making zero sense.

Down a dark alley with a very small sign. Read the website carefully.

It’s downtown Boston, not much to be found.

Great set design, but This is a really difficult room. It’s not intuitive at all. We needed nonstop clues from start to finish.

The Clock Tower in Boston was my very first escape room and I have been hooked ever since. From what I remember, the puzzles were fun and the atmosphere was just right. The perfect amount of kitsch and immersion for the mad scientist brand of puzzles. My group of 4 and another group were tasked with getting out, and though we didn’t make it in time, it was still a memorable experience that I recommend.

This room is brilliant and a must try. The only reason we got stuck is it was just two of us and we were a bit off our game. All the puzzles made sense to the very rich storyline. One of the best time travel themed experiences we’ve had. One very memorable puzzle challenged every escape room rule we knew but resulted in such satisfaction.

It’s off of a side road in downtown. They have to buzz you into a random door on the side of a building, and then you can take an elevator up to the location. Don’t forget your password to get buzzed in 😂

In the middle of downtown, so it’s best to park somewhere and walk.
