In the late 19th century, during an ill-fated Halloween service, the deranged minister of Crickley Church decided to kill his entire congregation after their confessions had convinced his twisted mind that they had, among themselves, committed the 7 Deadly Sins. In order to punish them for their sins, the evil minister passed around poisoned bread and wine. As the congregation choked on their last breaths, the minister incited a curse on the children playing in the rooms beneath the church, and then buried himself alive in the churchβs hidden crypt, determined to haunt the church forevermore. Your Great Grandfather was one of those innocent children. You began to think back on the mysterious deaths of family members and close friends ever since that fateful night. Not wishing to take on such a daunting task alone, you have convinced your bravest friends to race to Crickley with you, break into the abandoned Church and find the hidden crypt. You enter the churchyard at 11 pm and the iron gates immediately slam shut behind you, locking you inside. The minister seems to be playing one last trick on you. Can you complete your mission and escape the church before the clock strikes Midnight? Or will you fulfill the curse and your name be the next on a headstone in your familyβs graveyard plot? Find the hidden crypt, find the dagger, and drive it through the heart of the evil minister. Then and only then you will be saved and will destroy the curse forever. Be brave... Stay calm... Work together... But remember... Time is of the essence...

Theme was on point well enough, and had some fun digital pieces to it. I didnβt think the puzzle items made as much sense and some felt like the logic for solving was too forced. We got stuck for a while needing to reference three different things together which felt more complicated than it should have been.
Some of the puzzles required too much referencing dates and orders of things that could have worked in both directions, so somewhat confusing along the way.

Gameplay didnβt really flow well and the game master wasnβt very responsive. We struggled with a hint that led no where and didnβt progress us in the game. When the game master came in at the end she had trouble explaining some of puzzles. Iβd give this room a 4/10 mostly for the atmosphere

The ambience was cool, the story was cool, the puzzles were interesting but the tips didn't make sense.

Hello Awesomeness! Seven Deadly Sins is far and away the best game at Escapeology! It has the right level of creepiness matched with the perfect level of puzzles and difficulty. I am not going to stop saying how great this room is! There needed to be a little upkeep, one of the keys opened every lock in the room. I had to stuff it in my pocket to forget it existed just so I wouldn't feel the need to cheat. You might see my other reviews for this place, and you'll see I didn't like the staff, this was the one execution. The GM was utterly amazing! The owner, or manager, I am not sure what her title was, wasn't the most plseant, but on this day she actually smiled at us.

The elevators get you to the room, but the room itself might cause issues for wider wheelchairs.

Several puzzles were not intuitive and far too abstract to figure out how you would decipher the clue without help from the game master. Very frustrating

Good theme and flow but some of the puzzles took extra time due to warn pieces or unintuitive jumps required to solve without hints.
A few puzzles required you to make some unintuitive leaps requiring hints.

The room was put back together wrong and they left one puzzle open. Later in the room we needed something from that puzzle and called for them to help. The staff gave attitude when told that the puzzle was left open. They never started the timer again and we had no clue where we were at. Overall staff was unpleasant. Really ruined the whole experience. Donβt recommend this location.

This was pretty lackluster. The atmosphere was cool. Regardless, the story was pretty clunky. They use paper and big staples for some puzzles, and one of them cut a pretty big slice of skin off my finger. Not a paper cut, mind you. A slice of skin. Was bleeding, but they didnβt really care. The puzzles arenβt very fun, and some of them are pretty clunky or random. I have to say that the fx were cool in some parts though. I like creepy rooms, but this one was just meh at very best.

Complicated puzzles. Tricky for novice players but our GM was fantastic at navigating us in the right direction.
