A Twist Of Oz

Addison was amazing! His knowledge and enthusiasm really made the game fun. We are a 2 person team enthusiast couple and we’ve played well over 100 games. The experience before during and after was incredibly enjoyable. We played the twist of oz and while this wasn’t our first oz room it definitely had stuff we had never seen before from bubbles raining down to unique puzzles we’ve never experienced, we never stopped being engaged. With 17 minutes left we finished and received a very cool history lesson and a unique little trophy! Add this one to your list.

Absolutely hated the music, super annoying hip hop bs music in a wizard of oz setting. Wouldn't say quite ruined the room, but strongly took away from it for me. With that said I guess it was theme related lyrically in their defense. Aside from that, definitely a solid room. GMs were both awesome for the two rooms, not that it has anything to do with our ratings.

A Twist of Oz was a great game. It was the first room we planned on our Carolinas trip, and they were so kind in allowing us to start a little bit later. Key to Escape is located in a historic church, actually on the national register of historic places. We had to solve a puzzle just to open the door too, which was a nice intro. The game itself was a joy to experience. Clever puzzle design, fantastic game flow and great clueing. We never felt lost or were unsure of what to do. It was a smaller space, but didn’t feel crowded. A real homemade game that’s just so satisfying to solve, in an amazing location. Add this to your Carolinas itinerary, I’m just sad we didn’t have time to play both rooms.

I really liked the fact that there was crazy cool art and designs throughout the room that really made the interior stand out more than almost any other room I’ve done. I’m not crazy for linear rooms but this one was awesome. Addison our game master was also really nice and made our experience a memorable one

Wow, the theme of this room really made you feel like you were part of the magic of Oz. From opening to end it was completely magical while also being really fun to solve the puzzles. We throughly enjoyed our time at Key to Escape and this is a must do for any enthusiast.

My family and I have been doing escape rooms for several years and gone to many throughout several states. This one is definitely one of our favorites! Roger did an incredible job designing this room and every detail worked beautifully! Our host, Matt, made the experience even better with his interactions. We loved the history of the building, the story behind how much time and care was given to designing the room, and truly appreciated how Roger and Matt made this an AMAZING experience for my son’s birthday. We can’t wait to return and play the other rooms!

So walking up the experience never seams to disappoint. The building is gorgeous and I actually squealed with delight at how cool it is. You need to solve a puzzle just to get into the door. Hands down the best room I have ever done! Truly authentic to the original story. The actors were epic and the art work was perfect. I would say it was semi challenging. I loved the use of color and black and white. Loved the hidden room and the use of locks with out using locks. As someone who has done over 20 rooms of a good variety I found it delightful. Perfect end to my birthday and I will absolutely be back to do other rooms and bring more friends

A wonderful passion project of a room that has obviously had a lot of hard work and ingenuity put into it. Beautiful and inventive. We are excited to return to this location (which is itself very interesting) and see what they come up with in the future. I can't imagine this not being a hit for anyone even remotely fond of the theme. The room is entirely linear, and larger groups may end up with several players that have nothing to do for the entirety of the experience.

A wickedly lovely room! Very well decorated and pretty with tech that delighted our senses and defied gravity! This interpretation of Oz is truly somewhere over the rainbow. There were moments where I didn’t know exactly what to do, so I felt like the flow wasn’t all there. There’s a part where we needed multiple codes at once and it felt vague without hints. In fact, without the multiple helpful nudges, we would be completely lost. Our wonderful GM Wizard kept us on the Yellow Brick Road, helped empower our brains to solve the puzzles, infused our appreciation of the scenery with heart, gave us the courage to keep going, and helped us return home in good time, for good!

I can see why this room would get a lot of recognition in the escape room community a few years ago! It is a well done room but admittedly feels a little bit dated in the current escape room scene. The theming is fun but not 100% immersive. The puzzles are enjoyable but are a bit more prompted than I personally prefer. This would be a great room for younger escape room enthusiasts or people who are new to escape rooms!
