Mark as done to rate

A new family just moved in next door. Quiet. Polite. Perfectly normal... right? Weeks later, you're invited to their house for a casual get-together. You bring some drinks, knock on the door... No answer. You push the door—it creaks open. You step inside. "Hello? We're here!" A cold voice whispers behind you. The door slams shut. It's locked. By the time you realize a professor was poisoned to death in this very house... ...it's already too late. This house holds secrets. Dark ones. And now, it won't let you leave. You have 60 minutes to escape its twisted trap... Before you become part of its story. 1 Hour. 1 Chance. Do you dare enter the House of Things?

1 escape room

Quite possibly the worst room I have done to date. The puzzles had no flow, did not relate well to the room thematically, and were not intuitive. You would expect that when moving locations, the puzzles and decor would be upgraded, but that was not the case.

Real struggle to point out any positives from this experience. Limited basic puzzles, random props, no story. Puzzles did not feel intuitive and quite possibly the worst room I have done to date. Hope things get upgraded in the future. Staff are nice at least
