CONDEMNED2: The Box

This room is way to hard for even 6 people. Way too dark inside with only 1 flashlight.

A top 5 room for me and I REALLY want to go back and play the west side (we played east). The set design is spectacular. Yes it’s dark BUT it adds sooo much to the spooky factor and dark rooms don’t bother me. I’m all about the set design and immersion, without that I just can’t get into the puzzles. With that said the puzzles were also amazing and were appropriate for the storyline. There were A LOT of puzzles and a few of them I had never seen before. We are a group of 4 enthusiasts and we would have escaped if we chose the easy exit, BUT we were stubborn and chose hard mode and unfortunately did not escape, which just makes me want to go back and play the other side that much more. There were a lot of surprise elements that I didn’t expect which just added to the immersion. Teamwork and communication is an absolute must in this room.

This room definitely goes on my top 10 list. The split start was unique in that the two groups were not in the same space, but had to effectively communicate to progress. The set is second to none. I was really impressed. The puzzles were diverse and challenging and once the two groups reconnect, there are a couple of nice surprises. Our GM, Jamie, who is one of the owners of, is a great host. It even has some replay-ability as you can start on the opposite side the next game and see a whole new set of puzzles from your first play. There’s a reason that this is a Terpeca finalist. It really is an amazing room.

This game is phenomenal. For anyone who wants plenty to do, a challenge and a little scare this is your adventure. The room is huge, it has traditional escape room vibes but it’s just really fun and challenging. Well layered and really forces you to work together. Has a unique wrinkle which I recommend you try and complete if you can. Wonderful service as well. Go play this game.

Great over all. Super fun. Almost got out. Biggest take away is Don’t assume anything.

Awesome room! Super immersive. Lots of hidden rooms and doors. Great puzzles. Favorite room I’ve done so far!

This was a great game that I’d recommend to anyone that doesn’t mind a dark theme or a split start. The space is huge and can support 4-6 enthusiasts. Puzzles were unique and fun. The optional Box element is a great way to challenge groups that would otherwise finish early. Don’t miss this one if you have the opportunity to play.
