Heist Havoc

Awesome room! Had some elements I had never seen before. Interesting gameplay and novel puzzles. Can’t wait until they have another one.

Phenomenal game, and a must-play in the Chicago/Milwaukee area. One of our favorite heist games ever. Highly interactive with lots of really fun gadgets to make you really channel your inner cat burglar! They don't have a huge space or budget, but everything is designed super well and the game flows nicely. Enthusiasts are unlikely to take the full 90m but it will still be an incredibly fun and satisfying time. We couldn't belive this was his first room. It's such an incredibly high bar to set, and we hope we get back to the area down the line when he has more to play! But one of the best games we played in the area for sure.

The best non lock and key room i’ve done. Awesome use of practical effects and the game flowed very well. I didn’t catch myself confused on what the next step was or wondering what goes where or when to use stuff. It’s another typical heist story line with some puzzles i’ve seen across the heist games but some unique and interesting ones as well. Overall great room I will be looking and going to everything coming from this company.

A PHENOMENAL game, so well done and SO creative- puzzles unlike anything I’ve ever done!

We've done 150+ escape rooms and Redacted is doing things that we've never seen anywhere else! Super unique technology that fits extremely well into the story. Set construction was really solid and overall theme was super fun. Nick and the other owners were phenomenal! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

One of the best rooms I've done by far. Great gadgets and puzzles. I can't wait for the next room to open so I can go back!

What a unique game! Redacted has come out of the gate swinging with their first experience. I have never played a game that so successfully put me into the spy/master thief role so superbly. I felt like James Bond getting my kit of spygear at the beginning of the game. I had puzzle and prop interactions that I had never before experienced in an escape room. This game truly showed me something new. I can't wait to see what Redacted comes out with next!

The puzzles got better as the game went on and ended on a strong note. I would recommend this room to smaller groups as larger groups may have people standing around feeling superfluous due to the mostly linear nature of this room. I have rarely encountered a toolkit to use in the room, and I appreciated that immersive detail that made the game more fun. I was initially worried that this toolkit would be too complex and would feel like a chore, but my fears were quickly set aside as this was not the case. Overall, I had a positive experience and fun playing this game with my family.

This was an all around very good game. It was all tech and everything worked. The game master and one of the owners, Nick, was very good at hint-giving, and both the set and puzzles helped to elevate immersion into the storyline. This room did not have as many puzzles as I had expected but most puzzles had multiple parts. Our group of 5 worked as the game moved between non-linear and linear puzzle tracks, but more people would’ve been too many. Strengths + Multi-step, layered puzzles that were satisfying to solve + Flawless tech integration that felt and looked like magic, adding to storyline immersion + Good accessibility accommodations for mobility and color blindness + High-stakes, adrenaline-pumping, fun ending + The recruit’s toolkit given to us really made it feel like we had agency in stealing this diamond, and made it feel less “escape room-y” and more like an action movie. Areas to Improve/ Personal Preferences - 1 or 2 areas of the set felt not as detailed as other areas - 1 computer puzzle overstayed its welcome

This was one of my favorite escape rooms! So thoughtfully designed and fun. The owners were so welcoming. We are excited to do another here when it’s ready!
