Loved this room so much! It was so fun and colorful. They did an amazing job designing this room. The puzzles were so fun too!

Not a terrible room. This was right on the line. A few combination locks in an escape room are bearable, but this room had almost double digits, only half of which were labelled to indicate which lock to input your solution, which is a must for combination lock rooms imo. I didn't love the pacing of the room. Front loading is an expectation with non linear rooms, but the connections in between completing puzzles to their end were a bit choppy and a little unsatisfactory. Theming of the room is great, everything follows theme well and has a ton of character and fun references. I truly enjoyed the decor. One issue is that the color motifs of pink, orange, green, and blue are everywhere, including some clues which obfuscates puzzle connections as a form of unnecessary artificial difficulty. Overall I think this room is great if you're either: 1. <10 total escape rooms done or, 2. Never done a nonlinear escape room or, 3. Value theming and decor over puzzle design and tech Again, not a bad room, but a bit outdated and some bumps in the decision making make this one a bit disappointing for me.

This room was so much fun, my favorite of this location. The set dressing and atmosphere reminds me of Disney. Non-linear, lots of puzzles, with good puzzle variety. It was fairly easy for our group of 3, but still a blast and totally worth it.

Of the three games at this location, this is my favorite. There’s only two rooms, and one of them is very small, but the main room is jam packed full of puzzles and details. I felt like each component was super creative and memorable. Just come with people who know what they’re doing because some of the puzzles are a bit tricky or time consuming.

A fun little room! We played with three experienced adults, but it would also be fun for kids. It is a physically smaller room, so I would say more than 3-4 adults would be kind of squishy. They were very accommodating for a non-player in a wheelchair (grandpa with dementia), which we appreciated greatly!

Had such a fun time doing The Doghouse “Game of Chue” room, a great homage to Clue and boardgames. It is super kid-friendly in terms of theming but don’t be fooled, some of the puzzles really made you think! Lots of cute interactive surprises, I loved it!

This was our first time visiting this company and it was amazing! This game is very kid friendly but also enjoyable for adults too. The atmosphere was very fun and felt like you were playing the game of clue. There is a ton of puzzles so I recommend a team of 4. There was a good mixture of different puzzles we haven’t experienced and mechanical which is appreciated. This is one of the harder rooms for this company but I’m excited to try the next ones!

I quite enjoyed this room. The theme and story was fun and not one I have seen anywhere else yet. The puzzles were challenging and kept the 2 of us busy for almost the full hour. We escaped with just 6:30 left. All around I had a fun time and would recommend this room. I don’t quite understand why this room claims to require 3 people. They let us play as just 2 and I believe you could also play this as 1 person as well if they would allow it.

I thought this was a unique theme and story, which is always nice for a change. (Who needs to be locked in a cabin by a serial killer for the 50th time??)

I’m not sure why this room says it requires 3 people. They let us play it as 2, but I honestly think it could be played as 1 too. You’d just have to ask them to see if they’d allow you to.
