“This is a great game, on par with their other games. Our ending was a bit anticlimactic though, something opened too early and the game guide didn’t even really acknowledge it until we asked. Our team was 8 ppl, which was honestly too many. I’d recommend 4-5.”

“Loved this one! Lots of really cool elements and puzzles - teamwork moments, physical challenges, fun props & details. The space is not large. 8 people would be far too many. My group had 5 and I think the space would have been more comfortable with 3-4.”

“This is my favorite TEG escape room to date! The set makes you feel like you’re aboard a space station. All of the puzzles were thematic, high-tech, and tactile (I don’t remember a single traditional letter/number lock). My partner and I usually play with just the 2 of us, but we’re glad that 2 more people signed up since some of the puzzles would’ve been extremely hard to accomplish. We were having so much fun, I didn’t want this room to end at all! 10/10!”

“It was really fun to compete and play the games in the main game but the Game Bay has such incredibly fun games and is so much cheaper and freer. In the Game Bay It's about $1/minute for everyone to play and you can choose your games and play however long you want, take breaks, enjoy drinks, etc. In the main game, there is a lot of waiting around in hot jump suits for your group's turn. It rushes you through each room and you don't have any control to enjoy the games within the game. Also, if you go, carry your jumpsuit! It gets way too hot and you don't need it till the very end - and you'll have a long wait before the last game to get dressed. 12/10 - I recommend the Game Bay 9/10 - I recommend Beat The Bomb game itself”
