20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

We do a lot of escape rooms spanning from low budget to high budget while this isn’t a high budget set like some of the national chains, the puzzles more than made up for it. They were clever and made in such a way that everything you needed was always in within reach if you pay attention. There also weren’t a lot of wasted props, everything you see pretty much gets used which makes it feel nice to have it all come together. Puzzles were linear enough to flow well, but not too linear that it’s boring. The theme also was on point. Other low budget sets are that way because they are just not designed well and the company never takes off, this company however is just new, and definitely going places so I look forward to seeing what they do with their next few rooms coming out soon

Good puzzles. There were two of us, and we did great. So, if you’re worried about a small group, don’t be. I enjoyed the theme and story. Our game host, Skyler, was fantastic. We had the option to get unprompted nudges, and we passed on those, electing to only get hints when we asked, which was maybe twice? It had been a few months since we had done a room, and this was a great one to get back into it with. Looking forward to the two new rooms coming soonish. Also, I love that it was private and affordable.

We had such a great experience! Kel was our extremely fun and friendly gamemaster. The puzzles made sense and fit the theme very well. Definitely worth a stop for both casual players and enthusiasts. Can't wait to see what they come up with next!

Great escape room! Lots of clever and unique puzzles that fit really well with the theme and made it a fantastic underwater adventure.

Overall, this is a very satisfying room. Puzzles make sense and connect to the theme.

We were immediately enamored with Kell's poetic introduction. The tie to books was a unique twist for some avid readers, but no knowledge of the novels was required. The room was immersive and there were many unique puzzles we hadn't seen before or had inventive takes on some classics which is hard after 300+ rooms. All the puzzles were logical and our twosome required no hints. The game master was amazing in the intro/outro and was quick to nerd out about escape rooms after. Rumor has it they have a couple more rooms in the works and frankly we can't wait to see what else this brand will offer!

I wanted to like this room. It started out decent and the mechanic on the door was something cool and immersive but that’s where it ended. Once in the second room the puzzles took a deep dive and drowned. The GM pushed us through when we didn’t ask which is fine, I get it. However, the clues didn’t help. The puzzles were so disjointed and I was left think “how would we have known that”. The scenery was painted and a bigger puzzle just didn’t work right kind of got “entangled” in itself. The ending suffered as well. I understood it afterwards sort of but the mechanics of the last puzzle and how it tied in just fell short. I’m kind of bummed. It takes a lot for me to stop having a good time in a room and this one did it. I understand the reviews from others and why it gets high marks from newer players. It’s an okay game if the GM walks you through it I guess but for an enthusiast it just didn’t resonate. Bummer

Lots of fun. Great reviews were dead right. It’s a clever fun room that is a challenge and clever with its use of theme and puzzles! Highly recommend! And the staff was the best!

Great room! The puzzles were inventive and unique. I love that it’s based off of a classic but you don’t need to have read it to enjoy the room.

This game has some of the best designed puzzles of any escape room I've played. They're well thought out, challenging, and work with the theme of the room. If you're in Austin, and are an escape room or puzzle enthusiast, then this is the room I recommend that you do. Hands down.
