The Mad Scientist

Go for the puzzles, stay for the game master - Andrew is a dead set legend.

Do you think God stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he's created? We weren’t super sure what to expect as rooms built in residential areas can be a bit hit or miss but this one really impressed me. One of a few Mad Scientist rooms I’ve now traversed through but definitely the most original. All the puzzles felt super in world and the story line was clear and easy to follow (something easier said than done sometimes). The great array of different puzzles meant there was always something for someone to solve. We had a mix of first timers and experienced escapers in our group but it really felt like everyone was given a chance to contribute. A game clearly put together with a lot of passion, I appreciated the chance to have a great chat with the owner Andrew afterwards and hear all about his work. Definitely one to check out.

Amazing experience. Andrew, our game master made sure we had a great time and everything from start to finish was first class. Do not let the location put you off, this place is a GEM! I wish there were more rooms to go back!

This was a good room that is completely built inside of someone's home! The puzzles in the room are quite thematic and are presented in the form of science experiments which really adds to the room! The owner was also extremely passionate about what he does and it was really interesting learning about all his different backgrounds and what went into the room!

Fun professional escape room set in a suburban home! From the outside, you’d never imagine a full multi-area escape room would be inside. Despite its age, the props were pretty well-maintained, and the design of the puzzles and flow was strong.

This escape room is in an actual house in the middle of the suburb which is not your typical escape room. It was a more challenging one as there are extra decoys that can trip you up. The game master is very passionate about his room and I really appreciated how he took the time to explain how to solve everything afterwards. Definitely recommend and can't wait for the additional escape room to open soon.

Can you figure out and escape The Mad Scientist! Fun puzzles and a storyline to follow, we really enjoyed this room and our host was lovely and also showed us some behind the scenes of the game. Didn't make it to the bonus room but had a little glitch with one of the puzzles which made our time a little longer. If I'd eaten we could have stayed longer to see the bonus room but will likely return with friends to do again!

Had such a terrific time playing the Mad Scientist! I’ve only seen the in-home/residential set up once or twice before with varying results but this one exceeded my expectations in regard to puzzle design and overall charm. Andrew the owner and designer has done such a wonderful job creating a fun and engaging environment within a limited space, my partner and I were having the best time from start to finish. A relatively quick escape, the addition of 5-10 minutes of bonus puzzles really helped pad this out and give us a more robust experience which I wish more rooms would do at the discretion of how a group is progressing. Had a massive chat to Andrew post game who was a super accomodating host and GM who you can tell really has a passion for what he does. If you’re in Geelong, please go check this one out. 8.2/10 🔏🧩

I enjoyed this one! The escape room was located at a house, which gave an awesome feel to what we were doing! Even had some science in it which helped with the theme
