Museum Heist

Really not a good room. It has a few moments that shine, but many that don't. The biggest puzzle made absolutely no sense how to input the solution. Some components of the room felt very out of place. For multiple puzzles we solved, we got an answer and was wrong, then we got a hint that was do nearly identical thing and it was right. There was no guidance on why ours was wrong. The room is small, I have no idea how they could market up to 8, we were bumping into each other with 3. The room was really hot, from the start before we solved. It was like a heat wave entering the room.Although there were a couple a satisfying solves it did not make up for the mess of the remainder of the room. I would look elsewhere

This room was disappointing. There was a completely unnecessary red herring that made no sense. I would not recommend this room if you are serious about escape rooms.

For beginners it would be an ok room but for enthusiasts, it does disappoint. It did have one aspect of a heist room I don’t see often in heist rooms that I did enjoy and that’s why I’m given it cudos for that. However, one of the big puzzles is a word search. I really dislike Word searches in escape rooms. I think there could be actual puzzles over only Allowing one person to do a word search for a long period of time. There were also things we did that didn’t seem to do anything so we don’t know if they were red herrings or maybe part of an old puzzle that no longer is there? Also, the GM couldn’t get us out of the room fast enough. No debrief. No time for questions, just go. If you haven’t done too many escapes, this would be an ok room, but if you’ve had a fair amount of experience, it is disappointing.

The second generation locks malfunctioned and gave us clues out of order, so we were left trying to solve puzzles we didn’t have the means to solve yet. The GM was like “Yeah, I noticed that. That shouldn’t have happened” but did nothing to intercept the game and tell us that, which was a bummer because a lot of time was wasted. We left this room feeling pretty disappointed.
