Breathless

As soon as we walked into Mind Factory for "Breathless," the immersion was instant. The lobby is decked out in cool steampunk decor that sets the stage for what's to come. Dave, the owner, made us feel right at home. He was super friendly and gave us all the important info we needed to tackle the game, plus some handy tips and well-timed clues during the game. The set design is incredible. You don't just feel like you're solving puzzles you feel like you're part of a real-life story in a secret lab fighting a virus. The blend of analog puzzles and modern technology was perfect and I really enjoyed all the puzzles. Additionally, there is a fun twist with the door to the lab that makes the game much more challenging but way more fun. This twist forces you to use teamwork throughout the remainder of the game and causes a big adrenaline spike for the rest of the game. The difficulty level is just right and would be a fun challenge for both beginners and seasoned escape room enthusiasts. It's designed in such a way that you can't just breeze through it which makes solving each puzzle rewarding and adrenaline inducing. I also heard that they're planning to update the game soon with even more new technology. Considering how impressive the tech already is in "Breathless" this update sounds amazing. I’m definitely excited to go back and play the game again to see what new puzzles and special effects they've added to the game. Whether you're new to escape rooms or have been doing them for years, "Breathless" offers a rich and engaging experience that's fun and challenging from start to finish. I highly recommend checking it out—you won’t be disappointed!
