Incredible!! Some of the best special effects I’ve ever seen. I love playing magic-themed rooms because they always feel so.. magical! By far one of my favorite games. Love the keepsake you get at the end!
Our game master was great! He talked with us after the room, paid great attention to our game, and helped us relay information for one of the puzzles. He even nudged us when we were overlooking items right under our noses!

Two experienced players or 3-4 non-experienced players. I wouldn’t recommend more than 4 due to room size.

Not handicap accessible. Clues from the game master are delivered via audio. Two puzzles involve color.

No reserved parking for Gatlin’s. Must park in a public lot and walk/take a trolley to the escape room. We played early in the morning and had no trouble parking in a public lot right down the street from the village shoppes where Gatlin’s is located. Cost $20 to park for the whole day.

We completed this room with 2. Awesome effects and very good storyline.
The props and special effects are awesome as with all of the Gatlin’s escape games. Note this is at the second location which is a bit of a walk from the other games.
GM here was great

You will not feel like this is the same old room. It is unique and the effects are awesome.

This room has some unique flow and memorial moments that just keep you guessing. Our game master kinda ruin them a little which worsened our experience. That being said I would still recommend the room, especially if you are a magic lover

Great concept with some cool room transitions but some puzzles needed clearer goals/better in-room hints so we didn’t have to ask for so much help. One huge time-suck puzzle kept us from winning, which was a bummer because we knew exactly what we needed to do.

The game was fun with a great transition from one area to the next. One prop was a little finicky but didn’t really take away from the game. There’s a couple of trial and error puzzles as well. Overall would recommend while visiting the area.
