Will you escape Edward's basement? You and your friends have been kidnapped by Edward Tandy -- a cannibalistic serial killer with a fine taste for unique electronics, taxidermy, and of course human flesh. He has created a sick and twisted game of sorts in his deceased mother's home. He hopes to weed out the unintelligent and find those who are "worthy of escaping" by his late mother's standards. In THE BASEMENT, you and your team will have to employ keen communication skills, a finely tuned organizational prowess, and a general ability to keep your $h!t together under pressure if you want to survive. This is what we like to call a "funnel puzzle" where you will find numerous items and clues throughout the room. These items all come together to orchestrate your escape.

We did the dead and breakfast package where you get to do all 4 escape rooms back to back. This worked for us since our team loves out of area. This one in particular was pretty scary and had challenging puzzles. It also was pretty realistic since it included a live actor.
Scary and immersive
Well acted and challenging puzzles

I’ve done this room twice. The first time, we were put with many strangers and I hated it. It was frustrating, the actor kept scaring everyone in the room (not the actors fault at all they were just trying to help us along with the puzzle) and when I asked how close we were to getting out the person said “I don’t know it’s my first day. You can play it again and figure it out. Now, get out”. I was angry about it. I’ve gone back couple years later when the rooms became private. It was a better experience but still frustrating. If you don’t have a crew that knows what they are doing, it’s going to be a close call getting out. We spent out last 10 minutes searching for one puzzle piece we were missing and there was nothing the actor could do to help. Wasn’t the funnest of times. Out of their chapters, you can do this fine but I’d say skip. They have better rooms.

Man oh man. This room. I almost quit before we even got in. I was so scared. This is for sure the scariest room here. But not tooooo bad. My recommendation for this room is to tear it up and pay attention lol! Great decor and loved our actor!

Game was a good intro to the story. The game moves fast due to it being 45 min. I did like the actor that was in it, he made the experience more fun and interesting. It was not as scary as I thought it would be. The puzzles were not as difficult but were a lot to do in such little time. If we had one more person, maybe it would have gone more quickly. All in all It was a good and exciting experience. The Gamemasters were cute in trying to do a cute new introduction for us. We appreciated it and they were also very nice. I am excited to try the last two rooms.

I have played the Basement five times. I have gotten out twice. The last time was about two years ago. They will change it up if you have played it before to slightly different puzzles. The live actors are fantastic and the room is very well done. My only issue is that it seems l you collect puzzle pieces and some of which don’t go with the theme and there is not much direction of where to go or what to do. I get the premise which is great but there are some puzzles that just don’t make a lot of sense. This game has a creepy feel and maybe one jump scare if you aren’t expecting it but if you get a chance play here. Play all four rooms in succession they are fantastic
Gameplay was fun but seemed like more of a puzzle collection then a solving to escape.
Love the atmosphere. GMs were great on several different occasions
