Area 53

Overall not a bad experience but also nothing blew me away. There’s quite a few props that were looking pretty worn down but the puzzles themselves were overall fun and satisfying to play through. I would definitely still recommend this game to anyone but I don’t think it’s their best. Great customer service and I had a wonderful experience!

A very fun room! The puzzles were very unique and, accordingly, a little more tricky than usual.

Very fun room. Did it when they still had the same puzzle and still talk about this room.

🌟 A Blast from the Past for Sci-Fi Nerds! 🌟 Our latest adventure led us to the enigmatic Area 53 Escape Room at Business Bust Out Escape Room, and it was nothing short of a thrilling journey through a 70's-inspired sci-fi wonderland. 🛸👾🔍 The moment we stepped through the door, we found ourselves transported back to the golden era of 1970s science fiction. The ambiance of the room, filled with retro décor and quirky memorabilia, instantly immersed us in a world of UFOs, conspiracy theories, and extraterrestrial puzzles. 🌌📼🚀 Area 53 is a treasure trove of unique puzzles, a refreshing change from the electronic-heavy rooms. This escape room relied on locks, keys, and traditional mechanisms, which was a welcome throwback to the good old days of solving riddles with your hands. The tactile engagement in deciphering these puzzles brought a sense of nostalgia and excitement. 🗝️🔒🧩

Bust Out consistently does a good job with immersive sets and Area 53 is one of their best. There were a couple of interesting original features In this room I haven’t seen in the 400+ games I’ve played, including plenty of space-themed ones. You are in a station on the moon and your team of scientists has to figure out what went wrong with the genetic experiments before it’s too late. I don’t want to spoil the fun, but there are challenges to overcome and info to analyze. I liked the integration of both tactile and logic puzzles. We progressed through the room in a somewhat linear fashion as the story moved us along, which in this room worked really well. I recommend playing this game as well as Jumanji and Doomsday Bunker at Bust Out.
