Your dear friend Detective William Occam recently passed away while investigating a case about a 10-year-old missing girl, Nina. Following his death, you received a mysterious letter. Addressed to his closest friends, a single message was left behind: βThere are two sides to every man, the one that you see and the one hidden behind the scenes. I can only be the real me when I go fishing on the lake. Memories I will never forget.β

This was such a joy-filled and carefully constructed series of rooms (we did Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 together). I could not recommend it more highly. We did it as a duo and found chapter 1 challenging, but very enjoyable, and chapter 2 to be much more smooth sailing. Chapter 1 is more narrative-focused, and chapter 2 is more of a traditional escape room. If you're on the fence about going, I highly recommend taking the plunge, and if possible, asking to play Chapter 1 and 2 together over 3 intense and perfectly choreographed hours.
Loved the way the game's tech unlocked a feeling of connection between gameplay and your surroundings
Excellent use of light and sound.

Off the Couch games offer a really unique experience for escape rooms that build on top of each other and vary based off of your decisions in the game. Episode 1 is excellent, with really specific and cool tech that adds to the overall experience. Highly recommend!

This room has unique interactive puzzles that sync the ambiance. Very impressive gameplay (NPC) programming that is specific to the storyline. We have not encountered this in any escape room, yet. You can feel the flow of the story and the attention to detail put into each puzzle. The storyline kept us in suspense for the entire duration. Our game master, Alex, kept us fully immersed from start to finish! He definitely made sure we were able to get the full experience that this room has to offer. The calculated time given to complete the room is accurate, and we highly recommend playing this room (Chapter 1) firstβ¦and continue each room in sequential order. This escape can be enjoyed by all levels of escape enthusiasts. We were able to complete the room with two (2) players; however I think the recommend 4 would be best. Amazing experience overall! Well deserving of Best of Morty award π.

Very unique approach to escape rooms. 1 of 12 rooms in a continuous story series that flows well from one to the next. No reliance on lock/key/mechanical. Inventive, immersive gameplay with live actor and GM. Note: More than one way to escape this room! Challenging puzzles and unique game. Super fun room.

A really cool concept and a highly immersive, memorable experience. Some of the puzzles were just okay, and yet the room still might be one of my all time favorites.

My partner and I had an outstanding experience at Off The Couch! We played Chapter 1 and rate it 10/10 overall. Our experience started off with a warm welcome and introduction from Ken. He made us feel welcome and excited for the game. Our game was run by Edzel, who did a great job during the game (all the technology seemed to work flawlessly), and gave us a fun and through debrief at the end. The whole game was so thoughtfully designed and executed from start to finish. It was challenging, exciting, fun, and mysterious! The technology worked perfectly as well. We are so excited for the remaining chapters! We hope we'll see Ken and Edzel when we come back for chapter 2!

If youβre a fan of escape rooms, Occamβs apartment (and likely the rest of the escape room series) is a must-do in my opinion. Conceptually, the room design has a very unique approach with multiple endings affected by the choices you make. These choices will also affect your progress which is saved across the other chapters at the location, which adds to the overall immersion.
Unique puzzles with a very unique incorporation of technology
Very immersive set design - makes it feel like real life
Great GM and the owner is a great guy
