Liked this room a lot. The puzzles were intuitive and you had to work to solve them but not impossible to figure out which are my favorite kind. 5 of us made it out with no hints and 24 min left.

There is one game that would be difficult without 3 people

Fairly decent room and pretty easy puzzles. We had fun overall but nothing to write home about.

Was really surprised by how much I liked this room! The first room had more traditional puzzles but the second room too it to a new interactive level that I liked a lot. we had a bit too many people, but we covered a ton of ground. The room isn't very linear so you can divide and conquer. Be aware that the room is on the darker side with lighting so if you have trouble in low light, avoid this room.

I did not like the way clues were at GM discretion, we struggled a couple times and got no help. If it was GM discretion you figure they would of helped us to stay on time, but did not

The last room was not my favorite

I did not like the way the GM would decide to move you along, we needed help and they would not help us, this is the first time I have been in this situation

This has a very high puzzles per hour rate. Tons of little locks to decode. We were busy the whole time because it was just 2 of us. It was satisfying to get out but the final stage of the room wasn’t my favorite. It was not very intuitive and I’d call it buggy.
Gameplay
There are a ton of locks in this room. The end game was not my favorite but did feel like an epic conclusion.
Atmosphere
Well made with lots of things to do. It felt more like a pirate themed room than an immersive ship or brig or whatever it was supposed to be. But very piratey.
Customer service
The staff was fine on this visit. The operator was almost too relaxed with us and was kind of unprofessional. We don’t really care but some people might. They were in sweats and texting while going over the rules and story with us.

Fun room with some interesting puzzles. Definitely not the best pirate room we've played but it's a decent room overall.

Man, we overthought several puzzles and wasted a lot of time doing it. If we hadn’t done so, we would have gotten through the room and ‘escaped’. Still fun!

Only gave a thumbs up because we weren’t wow’d by the room, BUT there were a few multilayer puzzles we liked and it was a cute pirate room. Would definitely come back to play the other rooms. Yebewarned - you can’t ask for hints, they are given at the GM’s discretion, so you might be stuck for a bit if they don’t give you a hint. That was a tiny point of frustration for us. Still enjoyed the room though!

This was a pretty standard “pirate ship” room. Unfortunately what seemed like one of the more fun parts at the end was broken.

Great for families and large groups-but avast, not for landlubbers! There is a minimum of 2 people per room Monday through Thursday, and a minimum of 3 people per room Friday through Sunday. All ages are welcome. We have designed our escape room experience for players ages 12 and up. Players age 14 and under must be accompanied by a responsible, paying adult. If you are bringing children age 10 or under, you must book the entire room as a private experience (check the book entire room checkbox). Basic physical agility is part of playing our games. Please have each participant do a self assessment to ensure they can bend, crawl, stand, reach and duck. Please note we are located at the top of a flight of 20 stairs and do not have an elevator.
