Escape The Mad Hatter

Interesting concept that works for better or worse. There’s four main rooms, and you get 5 minutes in each room before cycling to the next one. You do the full cycle 3 times, unless you finish early. Again, you’ve got to wait for others to finish if you do finish early, which isn’t fun. The concept was unique enough, though, so I say if you walk in and don’t expect an immersive experience or even a solid escape room, you might just enjoy yourself. It’s certainly a unique concept, and by lowering your expectations, you’ll see the best parts of it.

Okay room. It hypha’s a weird setup, where you rotate to a different room every so many minutes. This is made it confusing and sometimes a waste of time. We finished one of the rooms early on, but around till it was our turn to get to get back to a room that we were stuck on. And since you are rotating rooms, you can’t leave anything for the next group. It would be fun to do with a large group that you are competing against.

When my brother and I (our group) dominated and beat the other groups, we ended up having to wait for every other group to finish. Not always a fun thing to do.

There's a mechanic that some people might hate but I found ok.

Oh man. This was bad. Imagine a high school project combined with a ludicrous style of play and you get this room. Atmosphere was a joke with hand drawn puzzles and paint slapped on. Room dynamics made no sense with time limits on each section before moving on to the next. If you were done with your puzzle, you just sat there until the time was up to move. Non sensical. Unfortunately this concept seemed like it was literally conceived from someone who was Mad.
