To start off, my group and I got to the escape room 20 minutes early, but no one was there to greet us. We stood out in the hallway for a while, and I called two times and no one answered. Our reservation time already passed so I called again and finally someone answered saying they were running late. Then we sat in the waiting room area, after signing waivers and putting our stuff away, for about another 10 minutes before finally getting into the room. The atmosphere was cool, but the puzzles were confusing and all over the place. While we were in the room, the GM seemed to get frustrated with us at points for not understanding something or for doing something wrong, and was rude giving hints. We would not have been as confused if the puzzles were more intuitive and the connections were clear. Everything seemed disjointed which caused us to waste more time which is probably why this room was 75 minutes. It was very frustrating for my group and I as we ended up not getting out either with only having one or two puzzles left. I was highly disappointed leaving.

Extremely frustrating. Some puzzles didn’t work and we had a lot of issues where we did it right and then it didn’t work, so the game-master said “consider it done” and move on… and we were not able to finish the game and complete, but they said we “technically” completed it because things didn’t work. It took away a lot of the fun and satisfaction. It’s a bummer because all of the other rooms here have been great. We had extremely high expectations for this one.

I feel this room has A LOT of potential, its a really great room. The immersion was there, as well as the decor really fit the theme and was great. What wasnt so great was the way the game is played. Every puzzle is VERY TIME CONSUMING. Which could be fine, but theres also a constant side task that has to be completed to gain information to complete your main tasks that again is very time consuming. There is a lot of time wasted trying to gain information for puzzles that as well take a long time to try to complete. Granted the room does strongly recommend playing with a large group, because there is a lot to complete in this room, but regardless everything just seems to take a long time. Again these are very story strong rooms, you can tell how much effort the owner puts into the story telling and making sure the room feels like youre a part of the story line he’s telling, so if your doing a room to feel your in a movie or in a story book, this room will feel so fun. If your doing a room to complete puzzles and unfold the story as you go, you might get a little frustrated.

The room itself was AMAZING, some incredible mechanics and just really well done in general in terms of props, decor, etc. Our game host was not the most enthusiastic and tended to interject to tell us when we were doing something wrong, so make sure to mention something if you have an issue with that.

Really enjoyed the immersion of this room The hint system was one of the coolest hint systems I have seen in a game, the nonlinear style felt non linear all the way to the end which allowed space for creative thinking!! The room was set up well. The only thing to be aware of is there is a decent amount of reading which was my only downside of the room. I think this could be a 4/5 star game if the reading was toned back because everything else was logical and fun!!!

Such a FUN room!!! We loved it! There was a lot to do, but my husband and I were still able to get out in the nick of time. This is a room I’ve recommended to all our enthusiast friends!

Another high tech room of medium advanced difficulty. Recommended for more experienced players or larger groups. Part of a three room story line that you can do as part of the story but do not have to do the other rooms. Overall a fun room.

This room is very well done and extremely challenging. The room designer is amazingly detailed. You will be mentally exhausted by the end, in my opinion. The only negative with any of the these rooms, and I’m nitpicking here, is that the room designer enjoys using speakers. There is a lot of auditory listening involved and if you miss something, you have to wait for the entire track to finish and start over. This can be frustrating and really slow you down. Overall, I’d give this room an 8.5 out of 10.

Very difficult. Definitely don’t do this one with less than 3 people. This is a great room for larger groups of 4-8. True to form, like the other rooms at Entrapment, this room is intricate and detail oriented and full of stimulating props, which makes it hard for people with ADHD
