Invasion

Loved the theme, build, atmosphere, and puzzles! It is a mostly linear experience, but puzzles felt intuitive and satisfying. There are several rooms to get through, without anything feeling particularly frustrating. One puzzle is slightly finicky, but we managed well enough.

Rating: 4.5/5 Such a fun room, it was immersive due to a high quality set and great use of sound and lighting. Loved the storyline, it had humor and twists. Definitely one of my favorites from 60 to Escape. Pros: -Highly immersive -Lighting and sound was very well done -Tons of tech -Padlocks were minimal and they were used where appropriate -Varied puzzles with good flow, we never felt stuck -Strong storyline with unexpected twists and humor -Fun ending -Interesting hint system -Helpful and friendly GM -Lots of opportunities for teamwork Cons: -No real cons but my only nitpick is that I wish more of the story had a visual element instead of being mostly audio only. We played as a team of 4 and that felt just about right, I'd recommend 3-4 but I think it is playable by 2 experienced enthusiasts. UPDATE: My ranking of 60 to Escape rooms (all locations) I've played so far starting with my favorite: 1. Cheesie's Pizza Party ❤️ 2. Invasion ❤️ 3. Mystery Manor ❤️ 4. Hidden Temple ❤️ 5. Blast From The Past 👍 6. Arctic Expedition 👍 7. Magic Heist 👍

The narrative in this room is fun and engaging. It's a lighter and more humorous take on the subject than some others. The puzzles are varied and unique. This is a challenging room, but fair in how things link together.

Probably the second best room at 60 to escape milwaukee, most definetly their hardest! The room balances your misunderstandings of what the room -could- be and what it is actually, with lingering fears of what the rooms name actually has to do with the room itself (a very fun twist!). While a tad creepy it is deffinetly not scary. While some say the room suffers from having puzzles not feel directy obvious I think this is part of the charm and mystery the room holds. The only lacking part is the second to last discoverable part in the game- a fairly lackluster hallway, but beyond that the theming and set design is awesome as 60 to escape quality normally Is. Overall very good and hard room that I would recommend to any more seasoned enthusiast!

Such a fun room elevated by a delightful narrative.

A really fun take on “the Sandlot” as a back drop for an escape room. The story telling and set were phenomenal, you can tell some love went into this room. With sooo many rooms it was impressive. The hint system here was unique and short of an unlimited hint system this is as good of an implementation Ive seen. Using pre-voiced hints with in game characters almost ensures a limited hint system though. From a puzzle perspective though it was pretty 50/50. Some puzzles were extremely unique in their execution. The opening puzzle in the second room was by far my favorite. Other puzzles felt tedious or didn’t work as well as intended. We spent entirely too long on a very obtuse puzzle with including “dog tags” which in the end would have been impossible for us to solve with how worn down the paint was for those specific puzzles. We ended up solving it with some brute forcing which I hate. This puzzle kind of built some frustration in my play group that soured the room slightly. I hope to find my way back to CHI/MKE to try another 60 to escape experience because I did really like the room save for aforementioned puzzle.

We searched a lot for one puzzle instead of using a hint, thinking we had plenty of time, but there were so many more rooms that we rushed through the end and didn’t get to enjoy it. I think it was a well-designed room; just wish we had a more attentive GM that might let us know we’re running behind even when we aren’t asking for a hint.

I love this room! My only complaint (which is just a set design critique and not about the game at all) is I wish the last area had more of a vibe like the rest of the room. If it had just had that extra oomph other than the story development in the decore it would've been perfect! It doesn't take away from the unique game concept and the rest of the room though

Super cool room with a ton of rooms. Constant changing and new environments. Highly recommend.

What a great escape experience. This room had so much more to offer than I had anticipated. Great set pieces, engaging gameplay, and a fun main character guiding us through, all leading to a surprising choice at one point. There was one instance where the game master’s computer glitched out and they had to come in to let us know they could still provide hints but may need to step in to do so. Besides that, this was a challenging room that will test you all the way throughout. Great job, 60 to Escape!
