Brimley Manor

9.5/10 Loved this room so much more than Botanica. Great room for families and kids between ages 8-13. I went with 4 kids and let them do it on their own and they did such a great job of figuring out all the puzzles!! It was tons of fun! The story telling was on point; (I was completely lost in the Botanica story line), I loved how they incorporated so many puzzles throughout the rooms, I loved the use of all the different rooms (going back and forth), fun lighting throughout, amazing use of technology and storyline. Puzzles were perfect difficulty for this age group and I loved how there was “feedback” if a puzzle was done out of sequence. Again, great for new and inexperienced escapers. Thank you to the game masters who kept watch and nudged us in the right direction throughout the game. We had no difficulty with any of the puzzles and all the technology worked amazing. Well done DayDream Adventures!!

Incredibly delightful and charming room. The set is incredible (as expected from Daydream) and story was a mix of ghostbusters/disneys haunted mansion sort of thing. Totally understand where people are saying one puzzle was unresponsive/delayed in response to a point where I still don’t really know what the solution is. GM said they turn on “easy mode” for pretty much everyone for that puzzle after a bit due to the “normal mode”, but that makes me think something is wrong with your normal mode…. Anyways with that being to the only issue we had, and all the delightful creative space, puzzles and characters that did exist, make me give it a heart. I still think the Botanica room edges out this one, but this is great as well.

Our team was befuddled by this one. And to be fair, most of us were pretty inexperienced escapers. In the end, I'm not sure we solved ANY of the puzzles, and if we did we're not sure how - pretty sure the GM took pity and just waved us on to each next stage. I want to like it, it looks amazing, the story rises above what seemed like a pretty tired theme, and there's lots of fun tech. But I'm not sure if some of it might have been unresponsive. Anyway, it was fun but not satisfying. And that might be our fault. I dunno.

This was a nice set as expected from this company. Very good service and nice staff as well. A very family, friendly room. I felt one puzzle may have been a bit glitchy which led to a delay. Difficulty level is relatively low and can be finished pretty quickly with experience escapers 7.6 /10
