“A nice room with unexpected set design. Meet time requirements and you're in for a treat of some bonus puzzles. Unfortunately this room is set to retire, I would urge the company to do a refresh and retool vs a full retiring.”

“The room is designed for 2 people which I’m very much appreciated. it’s not a high tech room but the games are well designed and well thought. We enjoyed it very much. I like the fact about the progress sheet which reminds you if you are falling behind.”

“A Great game, loved the puzzles ( and the extra ones if you finish with a lot of time left). The Room itself could have been more " shriny" Maybe some cobblestone wall papers or anything else to make you feel like you are in a Zelda Temple. Loved the little references here and there without being an handicap to someone who knows nothing from the world of zelda. The Puzzles are really the #1 thing in this room and this company as well. They are well thought, fonctional, Hard but easy to understand, they flow very well and each puzzle really rewarding when completed. I Would 100% recommend this company and this room. I would like to say its the best one they have but i sadly didnt do Hyperspace so either #1 or #2.”

“What a great first impression and experience this was. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. They were one of the many reason we came back to play all of the other games. The game itself was good, small room but extremely well used. The flow of the game is very good (we did the third best time, our team name is Schnappi). The puzzles were fun to do and were a good difficulty ( not too hard, not too easy) which for us is really important so we still have a feeling of satisfaction and pride. For those reason i fully recommend this company and this game, it can be enjoyed by either begginers for a good challenge and advanced players for a pleasant gameplay.”

“I really liked this room because it was hosted, and that added a neat element to the puzzles. Overall, it had a great feel and neat outcome and story line. Any room that delivers on the narrative with good puzzles, is a top tier room.”

How Do Escape Rooms Work?
Remember those point-and-click adventure games where you’re locked in a room and have to solve puzzles to find the key and escape? Those online games were the original inspiration for the live escape rooms you’ll find all across the world today. An escape room is an immersive experience where you (and your team of 2 or more people) are locked in a room with a series of puzzles for 60 minutes. To escape and win the game, you have to look for clues, solve the puzzles, and find the key. While most escape rooms only give you 60 minutes to complete the challenge, others may have shorter or longer time limits. Many venues are private rooms where you and your team are the only players. However, some places may pair you with other groups who booked a slot at the same time. And don’t worry about getting stuck, asking for hints on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. While the original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple aesthetic, today’s escape games often take you into a different world. Artistic set designs, secret doors, and unique interactive elements are all part of the fun. It’s like an adventure game that you can interact with in real life. But if you’re hoping to preview any rooms before you book a game somewhere, detailed images and videos can be hard to find. To keep the puzzles a secret and preserve the experience of seeing the room for the first time, most venues only offer a few photos or a short trailer about the room’s theme or narrative. The only way to know what it’s like is to go and try it for yourself!
