Might be my favourite room in DC! (Or maybe second favourite after The Depths?) My team of three escaped and had a blast. The set is thoughtful and in good condition. It took us a little bit to get some momentum going, but the pieces fit together logically and creatively, with a mix of difficulties. Not too linear, which is nice in a group— we could work in parallel. Every puzzle felt well rewarded, and everything worked as it is supposed to. The pre-game rules video is absolutely the cringiest one I’ve seen in a very cringy genre, though. Well worth the drive from DC proper!

We added this room to our list after hearing such great things about it. The room looked beautiful with a lot of attention to detail. At first the room was a little overwhelming with so much to see and touch but once we starting solving puzzles we got in a grove. A couple of the puzzles we needed help with because the answer was not obvious and we were told to guess which we are not a fan of in escape rooms. Especially when their rules before going in stress not to guess answers. We struggled the most with a lock that we could not open and were told to just follow the directions and we wasted so much time they had to eventually come in and open for us. Overall the room was just ok frustrating at times which made it just not fun.

This is one of the best if not the best escape room I have ever been to. We love it so much that we went twice to show to our friends. Can’t wait until they are done with their 2nd room. Random and unsuspecting location, don’t let that deter you.

Wonderful room, clearly constructed with a lot of care! Good flow, high-tech, strong storyline, and diverse puzzle types (+ hilarious intro video). We did this room as a group of two and finished with 3 minutes to spare. Hope to see more rooms from Cyber Racoon in the future!

Really fun experience. Loved the set and the puzzles. Sad that they never ended up opening a second game!

Thought the set design was great and enjoyed most of the puzzles. There were several things going on at once which was nice for our group to all be busy as well. One of the best “western type” games I have played.

Really good game. One of the better old west games Ive played. A few puzzles required us to guess the order of the solve. Not a big fan of this. Would rather that order be given a step in the puzzle. But overall an excellent experience.

I think we let the hype get to our heads and then ended up slightly disappointed. Overall the set design was great, the GM was helpful (only gives hints if you ask), but the game flow wasn’t the best, especially for a group of two. It just felt like we were getting lots of ambiguous pieces of information & parts of the game at once so we found ourselves not knowing what to do next a couple of times. It’s not the most linear game and I think it would be a lot better for a bigger group. The room overall is pretty good … it just wasn’t for us.
