I’ve done a few spaceship themed rooms, but this one stands out from the others. The physical set is really well done and feels like you’d expect a spaceship would be, but this one also did a great job of integrating sounds, video and lighting into the gameplay as well. There are a ton of puzzles, and a couple of them are on the difficult end of the spectrum, so I’m recommending 4-6 for this room, which is more than I usually recommend. The puzzles were all fun, on theme and tough (in a good, clever way). Mali, our GM was great and we chatted about escape rooms prior to our game. I also like the unique hint system in this room; letting you select a level of hint that you’d like. I was genuinely pleased with this room.

The Garden Walk has a huge parking garage, so normally there are no issues, but if you go on a Friday evening when the House of Blues has a concert, the parking garage will fill up.

We played this for my son’s birthday and it definitely did not disappoint. Our game master was very welcoming and did a great job keeping us entertained before the game started, which set the tone for a fun experience right away. The room leans toward the harder side in terms of difficulty, but our family of four happened to be really in sync this time. There are a lot of puzzles packed into the experience and everyone always had something to work on. We were able to split up and divide and conquer throughout the game, which helped a lot. Despite the difficulty, we escaped with about 15 minutes to spare and did it with no hints, which felt great. One thing we loved was that there were no traditional locks or keys. Everything relies on cool mechanisms and tech that fit perfectly with the spaceship theme. The set design is excellent and really makes you feel like you’re aboard a malfunctioning spacecraft. Communication is absolutely key here. The room starts a bit linear but quickly branches out, and teamwork becomes essential. Luckily our group was firing on all cylinders and everything clicked. Overall, this is a really exciting, puzzle-packed room with great theming and satisfying tech. We left very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a challenging escape room.

I rate this escape experience a 4.5/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). I was a little concerned because I wasn't a big fan of another room at this location (torture chamber), especially considering it's on the pricier side. I was happily surprised at how much better this room was, although still pretty pricey. I give the set/theme 2 pts. The experience was very immersive - I really felt like I was in a spaceship and the theme made sense and flowed well. The puzzles get 1.5 pts. They went along well with the theme and there were some pretty cool and novel ones we hadn't seen in just over 100 experiences. Pretty high tech as well. There was a puzzle that we later learned adds time to your game which might have been nice to know beforehand because we finished without solving it which left us a bit confused. I rate my enjoyment 1 pt. There did seem to be a lot of talking by the 'crew' that wasted time imo although my hubby thought the time stopped when they were talking so maybe it didn't matter. It was fun and had some cool surprises. The GM told us pre-game that we should all be doing different things in order to finish but the three of us did most of the puzzles together and finished with time to spare. Not too shabby!
