The Honeymoon Hotel

The set was good and puzzles were mostly fine, but unfortunately, we had a poor GM experience. We needed help with a search fail, but the hints they gave were not relevant, and felt like they did not understand what we were asking about, which was frustrating. It felt like we got bypassed around one puzzle - we knew what we wanted to do and were in the process of doing it, but all of a sudden it was solved and we didn't think we did it. Other teams we were with reported similar experiences on that particular puzzle. After the game, we asked the GM how it was supposed to work to make sure we understood it, and she was not able to tell us. To be clear, the GM was a nice person and pleasant and all that, they just didn't seem well versed in the game.

I swear this company is owned by fans of American Horror Story, but even if this isn’t the case, AHS fans: rejoice (they also have a Freak Show room which is totally worth it). It’s a story based on the infamous killer H.H. Holmes which is simply a brilliant pull for a horror room considering that guy was *the worst.* Anyway, we had a good time in here. Building on the foundation of a disturbing real life story, there was a very strong set, most puzzles fit neatly within the narrative, and there were a few killer special effects. While most of the room is spooky, there are some scares and the name “DarkPark” should give you an indication about their feelings towards lighting. If you don’t have time for all of DarkPark’s rooms, do The End. This is a no-brainer (if you know, you know). After that, we think this and Orphanage are a toss up and depend more on which theme you prefer. Everyone says The End is their scariest room, but we found Orphanage scarier, with Honeymoon Hotel the least scary. Our scare threshold is probably relatively low compared to horror seekers. We can’t handle anything that assaults us with scares, and none of their rooms do that. Escape Couple rating: 5 🗝️: Excellent room with wow factors (we use a 1-6🗝️ rating scale)

A traditional spooky theme but really well executed. A couple of the spaces were really surprising and creative. A couple memorable puzzles. Really fun to play. Though I would prioritize The End at same location if u must choose.

My third one at Dark Park. Again, it did not disappoint. Good amount of puzzles and challenging enough for a group of 6 to finish with only a little bit over a minute to spare. Nice effects and theme. It had a few jumpy moments, but most of the experience was not really scary. Recommended for newbies and experienced players.

This is one of the view rooms or maybe even the only room in which everything ticked all the boxes. Gameplay and gameflow were great, atmosphere was indeed if you were in a hotel and puzzles were really there to support the game. The puzzles could be easily be part of the hotel. It wasn't that the puzzles have been put there to have some puzzles in it. Fun, some jumpscares and the bed was very nice, even as the bathroom.

we enjoyed it. the aesthetic was nice & eerie. the puzzles were fun.

We did it with 2 players and that was just perfect for us. It was scary but not too bad for either of us, it was tense and thematic. We had a blast 9/10

The Honeymoon Hotel shows that even at their most traditional, DarkPark knows how to tell a compelling story through gameplay. It’s a real treat watching this game unfold, with several cool effects and interesting environments.

DarkPark has some impressive horror escape games and this one is a scary one per excellence. Nice shock moments in between that will make your blood freeze in your veins

Schon etwas gruselig aber kann man auch gut mit "Angsthasen" spielen. Die Rätsel nicht ganz so schwer, weil man sich mehr auf den Nervenkitzel konzentriert.
