The 2000s were an innovative decade with the rise of film and social media contributing to globalization and communications. However, a secret society is conspiring to control the world through hidden subliminal messages. The hideout of his secret society was tracked down to an unassuming video store. Its employees have been renting out DVDs and using their social media platforms to spread conspiracies. Your mission is to travel back to the year 2005 and stop the secret society. You have 60 minutes to prevent mind controlling messages from uploading to the Internet. You are transported to the Colonel’s secret training location. There, you’ll face the tests created by some of the GREATEST MINDS OF SCIENCE. You are split into 2 groups, and have to collaborate, communicate and use your problem-solving skills to beat the challenge. Are you good enough to pass the challenge?

This was a fun room! A blast from the past - you start out in a room that looks like a very familiar video rental store :) I wish there were less mechanical locks and more immersion, but it was still worthwhile! I hope to try the other rooms they offer too.

Overall a great experience. It starts in a very bland looking video store, but expands to some more high tech elements. They utilized sound, light and video very well throughout the experience.
Very novel, with lots of different video and audio and mechanical elements. I was there in the 80s, so it could be partially nostalgia as well.
Great atmosphere. It starts very basic, but moves to high tech with various interesting reveals throughout the experience.

It's fun that they have a through-line of stories at Breakout Studios

It's a little cramped in some rooms. We did it with three.
Not scary
Kids were a little spooked by some of the areas. I didn't think it was spooky overall.

Rooms were pretty cramped. I feel a wheelchair would have trouble getting around. Venue is on the second floor. I assume there is an elevator, but didn't see it.

Second fastest time! High thumbs up! Super fun room! Puzzles flowed well and made sense. Good mix of high tech and gen 1 locks. And the blockbuster was so nostalgic for me. Loved the theme

Their newest room! Kinda different than their other rooms, less techy/nerdy feeling. Cool video themed room. They did incorporate tech related themes into the room, but it wasn't too overwhelming. Less numbers oriented. Really enjoyed it! Would be back if they open another room.

Really liked the theme and staff was super friendly. There was one or two puzzles that we got a bit stuck on but I blame our own dynamics more than the actual puzzles. It would have been helpful to have a demonstration of how the lock for the popcorn puzzle worked because you don’t see it too often and I wasn’t sure I was doing it right. Also, I recommend picking things up, there were a few items in the room that we stretched to access or run back and forth for only to find out they were mobile. Haha! Overall, I would recommend.

Cute room. Not a linear room, so you can solve many puzzles out of order. Good for big group but easily passable with just 2 people. Pay close attention to every inch of the room as you may miss something! Low tech room. Genuinely would recommend because I love this business! Easy level for experienced players.
