Wanted: Dead or Alive

This room was goofy and fun, and I had a great time in spite of being heavily jet-lagged. I appreciate that its creators decided to do something different from the typical horror theming that Athens is known for. It’s often billed as a “comedy” room, and while it wasn’t quite “roll on the floor” funny, it was silly, light-hearted, and heavily actor-driven. If you’re not down to get a little weird and go with the flow, you’re not going to enjoy the full experience. There’s much more to the room than actor interactions though. The puzzles were generally solid and satisfying, including a couple of styles that I hadn’t seen before. Some of the room transitions were really crazy too, again incorporating elements I haven’t seen before. Is this room a big-budget immersive game for set snobs? No. Does it punch above its weight in terms of novel ideas and fun factor? Absolutely. And clocking in at 90 minutes, the time flew by in comparison to the many 2+ hour rooms we found throughout Athens. My only criticism of Wanted is that it’s sorely in need of a face lift. Multiple aspects of the intro scene were not functioning correctly, and some of the set pieces and scenery were seriously busted. I know it’s an older and very popular room, but most of the things that needed to be fixed were not pricey items. Bottom line: go play this room. It’s a great palate cleanser after all the Athens horror, and don’t forget to check out El Exorcista at the same location too.

Game 14 of 17 of our Athens Tour - What fun! Lighthearted and hilarious gameplay with an actor that seemed to be having just as much fun as the rest of us. This game is aging and could use a facelift, but is still charming and whimsical as in its hay day. Puzzles were charming but ultimately nothing special or intricate. The game space was fairly large and varied, though entirely in world, and No Exit employed a great use of vertical movement to make it feel larger than it is. The actor was hilarious and varied in his roles. It was a joy to play with him.

WOW!! This might be one of my favorite escape room of all time! The set and whole experience was so insane and immersive. Also the puzzles were fantastic and a great level of challenge while being straightforward. What made this even better was our game master/actor. Wow wow wow. Thanos did such an incredible job and made this my most memorable escape room ever.

Does not deserve to be on the ranking. very disappointing experience in our eyes

A lot of unique rooms and clever entrances to said rooms. Excellent live actor who was a joy to be around. Great range of puzzles, some tricky some straightforward.

We asked if we could play as a 2, which they said was fine but we had to pay the same as a 3 player game! This was absolutely fine with us as we just needed a break from the horror! The game was really good fun, with some unique puzzles and even a cheeky bevvy!

This game was so much fun! The actors/character really added to the experience! Every moment of this game was well thought out, making the game flow perfectly! Although it was on the easy side, our group still had a great time and was laughing the entire time! Great way to change things up from the other terrifying rooms in the area.

Hilarious and clever. Loved it! Our actor was a delight and very helpful when needed.

We applause for the actor. He did an amazing job being both helpful and hilarious. Definitely one of the funniest escape rooms we've ever been to. Not very difficult puzzles but stay true to the theme.

Very funny actor, I’d say, he made us laugh throughout the whole game.
