The Smurfs

After doing over 100 rooms, i feel like they’re now judged on justification of pricing. For $78/person for 2 of us to play, this room was 100% not worth the price. The entire room was so warm, we were sweating the whole time. Our GM wanted us in and out, one of those very awkward, hi welcome to the room, push you in the room, and straight away tells you bye as soon as you finish, but i wanted a picture with the smurf!😩 The room itself wasn’t horrible, but it was a pretty basic room, the same decorations most places have in whimsical themed rooms, the only thing that made it more special was the smurfs theme and the voices. The puzzles were mid tier, nothing too extravagant, and for the price a lot of things didn’t work. As far as game flow, it was pretty horrible, there were a few puzzles once the GM helped us understand, thought to ourselves “we would have never thought of doing that.” And the other puzzles were pretty much just laid out in plain site, we didn’t even realize we’d completed 4 puzzles we hadn’t been told to do yet, until they started telling us to do it and we were like “oh? Ok thats done. I guess.” Also there was no music, which made me sad. Again the review isn’t to say the room was bad, we did have fun, but definitely does not live up to what you pay to play. Theres cheaper rooms with WAY better quality, better puzzles and overall a better experience!

It was a nice set up but way over priced. We were rushed out because of huge party before and after us that at one point the game master was just giving us hints even though our time wasn’t even up.

Cute room, I imagine it’s great for kids. Its theme and set design was better than I expected. I think it’s a bit over priced though for what it is.

Whimsical and true to the cartoon, all of your favorite characters make an appearance. The professional-quality set is delightful to explore and our GM, Adam Smurf, was affable and ready to help when asked. Perfect room for kids, families, and 80’s children who always wanted to smurf in Smurf Village!

The biggest problem with Smurfs was the lack of things that stuck with my group afterwards. We did the room and that was it. It was certainly colorful and we were entertained throughout but puzzles were simple and just not interesting. At one point your group is “shrunk down” to the Smurf’s size but that whole aspect was lost on us because it wasn’t made clear and nothing around us fully proved that. The owner says he wants it to be an interactive experience rather than an escape room but I don’t think that would help necessarily… though it is nice looking and clean and new, opening it somewhere between escape room AND interactive journey makes the experience itself hard to follow.

Beautiful set design but felt a bit empty and confusing when we played on opening

This is a fun room for all ages. Puzzles are straight forward and the storyline is cute! Looking forward to checking out the other rooms at this location as well.

This is a fun game for all ages - and once two puzzles hopefully get fixed to be more intuitive, I would recommend playing this game…but perhaps not at the “regular price” of $60 per person. Fun, immersive set, a plethora of puzzles, and a great story.
