Loot Wars: The X-Traction

We very much enjoyed the uniqueness of some of the puzzles. Excited to return for part 2!

Room on the smaller side, but fairly packed with puzzles. Puzzles are for the most part pretty straight forward and make sense. A few seemed slightly difficult to "line up" so made interpreting results in some cases a little difficult. Overall not bad, but also not something particulary exciting.

King's Eye Escape rooms have a reputation for thinking outside of the box, and they sure did not disappoint with this room. There is just one room but this experience showed me that one room could be just as engaging with the right amount of puzzles. We had a group of 5 and we all had plenty of to do. We all worked together to solve some of the puzzles because they did require collaboration or just another way of thinking about the same problem. We had Mark, the owner, as our game master, and he was so great. The passion is there and he was accommodating to us wanting to do the other room on the same day because we had so much fun with the first one. I hope they have another room to add to the lore because this room is actually the prequel to the story behind their other room, The Harvest.

Even though it was one room, there was plenty to do and very cleverly put together! We did it with two and everything was easily manageable. I don’t know how a group bigger than 3 or 4 would fit without being on top of each other. Super friendly customer service and GM too! I’m excited to try their second room in the series.

lots of puzzles! fun mechanical and tech puzzles.

Part one of a two parts story, but can play in any order.

LOVE the passion in the design here! Some unique, custom professional tech that I haven’t quite seen before. Just goes to show that small room escapes can be just as fun as the big ones if done right, and they nailed it here. So there’s games like 40 thieves at Mindtrap that are clear overwhelmingly positive games but I would rate this in the same ballpark in a different way. This place is kind of a hidden gem right now honestly. Don’t overthink the experience and be a weird critic analyzing everything lol, go have fun and you’ll see their efforts and love this clever experience! Also shoutout to Mark (owner) and Mire the GM - just the best to talk to honestly we chatted with them for a while and it was just awesome.
