The Soul Collector

We had a really good time with The Soul Collector at Captured LV! There were four of us playing, and this room had the perfect amount of puzzles to keep everyone involved. Nobody was standing around waiting for something to do, which is always a huge plus for us. The atmosphere was creepy without taking away from the actual gameplay, and the set design really helped pull us into the theme. Even better, there were a few puzzle mechanics and set elements that we had never encountered before — we do a lot of escape rooms, finding something that feels genuinely new is always refreshing! The room is non-linear, so we were able to split up and work on different things at the same time, but it was still organized enough that we never felt completely lost about what we were supposed to be doing. The puzzles were a great mix of challenging and fun. A few of them really forced us to think outside of our normal puzzle wheelhouse, which we loved. We ended up using 3 clues and still didn’t make it out, if we had just 2 more minute we woulda made it, lol. there were definitely some moments where we had to stop, regroup and look at things from a completely different angle. Overall, The Soul Collector was a solid room — creepy atmosphere, plenty to do, creative puzzles, some unique surprises, and a good level of difficulty for an experienced group. Final Rating: 8/10 🔐👻 Definitely one of those rooms where you walk out talking about a few of the puzzles afterward — and for us, that’s always a good sign!

Solid room but could use updating.

Great setting and puzzles and always on brand with Captured LV

We liked it but didn’t love it. Some parts felt disconnected and it was really hard to gauge how much more we had left because there wasn’t much direction as to what the overall goal was. I think it’s still worth going but a few small adjustments would probably make it a lot more fun. Also, I think there is a warning that the room is dim but it’s like really dim and we were having a lot of trouble seeing things and clues. So if you struggle seeing things in dim light it’s probably not the best room to pick.

Great theming. Lots of puzzles, flowed well. Gave everyone in our group a chance to shine!

This was really fun and creative room. 4 people was perfect

We've done a few other rooms from this company and the theming is on point. I did this room with a larger group of people than normal and I do think that hindered the room for me. There was a lot happening and I got stuck on a puzzle which was fundamentally flawed. I also have an issue that it brought us to a complete stop and when we kept asking for hints, the guide kept giving us the same one over and over when it didn't make sense for us. I think if I had gotten to experience more of this room I possibly would have liked it more, but I have a very sour taste in my mouth from this room.

While we didn't escape, this room was fun. The most challenging room Captured LV has to offer, it lived up to its reputation. At least four players are needed for this room. The room looked great, as Captured does well with an authentic look for each room. I recommend this room easily for anyone to try. But it is challenging, be warned.

Such an awesome room!! Love the creepy spooky vibes on this one and the story too! Well done
