The Basement : A Live Escape Room Experience

  • Real Life Escape Room


Mark game as played to rate

So you finally made it out of the house... but was it a better idea to stay indoors? After escaping The Study, and running downstairs, you find yourself in the mudroom of the Tandy home. One more door stands between you and your freedom, right? Wrong. Once outside, you find yourself in Edward's cold and dark courtyard surrounded by a 14-foot tall wooden fence. Edward's daughter Lilly once resided in the trailer in the Courtyard, but she's long gone. Painfully, she was forced to leave someone she loved behind. Will you be able to save Lilly's lover Quinn, or will the officer perish while you try and escape? The Courtyard is by far our most ambitious room to date. Like, Chapter 1: The Basement, The Courtyard is a non-linear funnel puzzle with multiple paths that must be traversed by different members of the group.

We did the dead and breakfast package where you get to do all 4 escape rooms back to back. This worked for us since our team loves out of area. This one in particular was pretty expansive and had very challenging puzzles. It also was pretty realistic since it included a live actor. Really well done set design.

Some climbing. But lots of expansive back and forth.

Out of all the chapters, this one is my favorite. Fun puzzles, large enough for people to separate. I’ve done this twice with two different groups because there were huge chunks I didn’t even get to look at. Love interacting with the actors. You don’t have to do the other ones for this to make sense. We did this with 5 people and a comfortable amount of time felt. Don’t remember exactly.

This was the best use of a live actor I have EVER experienced. I normally shy away from experiences that use live actors, but took a chance on this one. 10/10, I loved this room.

Was an excellent room. We were so close and out in room actress told us if we had 5 more minutes we would of escaped. We took too long on the wiring and finding a key and one puzzle was very vague. We will be back for a round 2 of this room and we will be victorious next time. Great room, great actress?

Not my favorite. The puzzles seemed lacking in flow in the first component. Also there’s a twist to it that slowed us WAY down.

The “courtyard” really feels like you’re outside… so much so I was melting.

Loved interacting with the live actor. Very creepy set but no jump scares or anything over the top. Would recommend a small, brave person to join the group. Just be weary about the ventilation in the room because the set does include a lot of dirt/dust/sand.

A very well-themed room, with at least one member of the team needing to do some physical activity (which I thought was super well designed), and a live actor who can be engaged with or ignored as the players desire. It’s been a couple years, but I still think back positively on my experience in this room.
