You spent nearly every school break in the 90s at your family’s cabin. When you weren't fishing, skiing, or raising your Tamagotchi, you and your cousins were playing Nintendo. After reading that a copy of your family's go-to Nintendo game just sold for nearly a Bitcoin, you realize the family's copy of the game should still be at the cabin. Unfortunately, your cousins realized the same thing too. Now it's a race to claim the cartridge! Will you get there first or will your efforts be as worthless as a Beanie Baby?

90s nostalgia! The puzzles are fun and themed well to the era. The theming in the first room is a bit sparse but once inside the cabins, it’s great!

There were a lot of puzzles but they were well designed and went pretty fast. Good beginner room, I would recommend 3 more experienced players. A couple puzzles malfunctioned when we played but it didn’t take away from the game play.

A fun room with great props! I escaped with four other novice players and we escaped with 8.5 minutes remaining. I thought this was the easiest of the Quicksand rooms, but it was still just as fun. Some challenging components and puzzles. Nothing scary

This room was a blast from the past! Lots of little old references perfect for 90s kids and the like. It took us a bit to actually get in the cabin itself and the puzzles had us wracking our brains throughout but it was a thrill finally cracking them.

Fun room. Theming was pretty good esp if you have fond memories of the 90s. There’s some innovative use of tech. It’s ideal for 2-3 people especially if you’re experienced. We didn’t need any hints.

I loved this room! Nostalgia and clever puzzles. We had a group of 4 which was fine but we are all fairly experienced so we could have done it with two or three for sure. No hints used :)

This was probably my favorite room I’ve ever done. Loved the cabin vibe, and the 90s element only added to the fun. There were a lot of unique puzzles and exciting surprises.

The puzzle order is pretty linear, tho it's hard to tell b/c it presents a lot of the puzzles at once, which I think is a good way to integrate linear solutions. Puzzles are fun and diverse. A decent amount of locks (usually dislike) but the locks are placed intuitively, so you have a good idea of which combos apply to which locks. Overall, a fun premise, and a very engaging room.
