First time playing games with this chain. They blew me away with the level of detail in their rooms! Everything was in excellent condition and the stories and puzzles were just plain fun! Lots of surprises in the rooms we did, too!

Right up front, this company does not allow for private rooms unless you book all available capacity for the room. I was aware of this and decided to book anyway. I will never do that again. While not a terrible experience, it was certainly less than. The three strangers we played with did not add to the enjoyment but instead subtracted. It’s 2025. This should no longer be a problem. I loved the idea of the room itself. Nice puzzles that were not difficult but also not too easy. Had we been by ourselves, this would have been a 10/10 experience. The first half of the room was more mechanical with the second half very technical and innovative. Easily on of my top 10 rooms.

Overall, a really fun room. It was a traditional spy theme with a unique take of being on location in a market. There were some twists along the way. Game flow was very linear. There were no times where we were wondering what we were missing or what the next steps were as it flowed very well. Immersion was great.the game was a little easier than anticipated based on reviews. We were comfortably able to finish it with 10 minutes left and two people, though we did get lucky in one of our decisions.

Great flow overall with no time wondering what we need to do next. Traditional spy theme with a unique twist of being on location.

Very few rooms are as immersive as this experience. You begin in a very realistic Moroccan Market (spices, tile pattern, glass doors on market stores (I’ve spent weeks in Morocco), the props are obviously authentic to the region and the happenstance solutions are realistic and keep you in the game. Once the plot twist occurs, the game becomes what was promised, Ops with of course more twists and turns. It was fantastic and gave legit Mission Impossible Vibes with the tasks and tech. I’d play it again just to live in Spy Universe for another hour.

this game single handedly made us never play another game at the escape game ever, which sucks because they’re everywhere. to start, we were paired with another group which who does that anymore? the game started as one theme and ended up a completely different theme. some puzzles were fun and unique but i didn’t like the deconstructed theme or the fact we were with another group.
