The Indiana State Basketball Championship can’t begin—the trophy has been stolen! You just search the sportscaster’s game room and find the path leading to the recovery of the trophy! You have just 60 minutes to recover the prize and save tip-off before chaos erupts.

128 escape rooms

I really liked the local theming and basketball memorabilia. Everything feels uniquely Hoosier. If you are an enthusiast visiting Bloomington, I think this is a great room to consider!

516 escape rooms

I enjoyed this room and I also enjoyed talking with the owner/operator (who also designed this specific room). Obviously a great theme for the location and I thought everything was well clued and cleanly designed. Nothing advanced from a tech perspective but for me personally I don’t consider that a negative as long as there are logical connections between the locks and the things that open the locks, which was certainly true. Recommended.

Gameplay

A lot of locks and keys and combinations, but the puzzles are good, and it’s always clear what things go together.

Atmosphere

The intro video is cute. There’s some legitimately cool IU basketball memorabilia.

Customer service

The owner/GM was extremely friendly and seems really enthusiastic about escape rooms. This specific room (as I understood it) is the first one he’s designed since taking over the business; for a first effort I thought he did a great job.

I played it by myself, but it is linear, so 2-3 would be a good number to see everything without it getting too crowded.

Minimum age

13

Nothing scary or inappropriate but a decent number of things seem breakable so maybe not the best for younger children.
