Very immersive!! The production value and tech sets the bar high!

I can see why this room has been nominated for so many awards! The set was incredible, the technology used was amazing, and the story was unique. And we almost didn’t get to play- the day of our original booking their server went down and we were unable to play; they graciously made an exception to open EARLY the day we flew home so that we could play before our flight, and I’m glad they were able to- I would NOT want to miss out on playing this room!

Best escape room I've ever done: immersive in all aspects with high quality and well functioning puzzles. Wish they had more rooms available to do while we were in the city!

Return of the Pharaohs is the best Egyptian-themed game I have ever played! Exceptional game play, puzzles, and use of props. Tech integration was seamless. Story moved along with the puzzling which multi-layered and engaging for the whole team. Set used, but didn’t overuse, the Egyptian theme which is a common problem in this genre. By a problem, I mean (no spoiler) I’ve played games where we spend an hour learning and translating hieroglyphics over and over and over and over again! Or where the game expects you to know all Egyptian mythology as if we personally dug up King Tut’s tomb! Talk about frustrating. Instead, Paragon wisely chose not to abuse any Egyptian themed tropes. This is a great game; can’t wait to see what Paragon builds next! Definitely go play this game and tell them you found it on Morty.

One of the top rooms in Arizona. Once you’ve done a room like this with no locks and keys you will be spoiled. Absolutely worth the 45 minute drive. This and Nemesis Club are the gold standard in Arizona

Loved it! Great set design, wonderful audio. Unusual in that there were props which had to be used multiple times for different puzzles - but it totally made sense from a design perspective. Overall a ton of fun. Checked all the boxes.

The set design is amazing, you feel like you’re actually in Egypt. So much attention to detail, you can tell the owners are passionate about creating a great experience. Definitely recommend this game and look forward to their other rooms!
