The Satirical Miracle: A Jolly Tale Of Granny's Blackmail

This was a fantastic game. Honestly there is an argument to be made this is Escape Ventures best game. I know that could be a bit controversial as they have some truly amazing rooms across all of their locations however what this game has that the other ones in their roster do not completely have is this game is perfect for any age and any skill level while still being a wonderful room and story. While this is one of their older games, the immersion, the set dressing, puzzle flow, tasks, etc are all wonderful. It also has one of the "best" in-story live actor interactions that reminder me of many a holiday. I won't spoil it but what happens and the circumstances for the live actor reminded me of many a holiday in the best of ways. This was not a difficult room but it was a blast to play. Very fun puzzles and smart technology used throughout. Highly recommend this room especially for families that typically would not play a room. This is the room for you. But beware as this room might convert you into an escape room enthusiast. Tidbits: Easy parking Great GMs Rebooking discount One of the best rooms in Orlando is at the location with Cornstalkers (book this room in advance)

Felt a bit older and dated than the other rooms at this place (which are all 10/10 phenomenal). Puzzles were a bit too easy and linear. We finished very quickly

Fun semi-holiday themed room.

Cute room and good puzzles. Would be great to do around Christmastime with kids or family. This was an Easy room, so would be good for beginners, but quite a bit too short for enthusiasts. I wouldn’t recommend this room unless you are a beginner, a completionist, or are just trying to get your room count higher.

This was probably the easiest of the 4 we’ve completed so far at Escape Ventures. Theme was spot on and loved the story line. We got stuck on one puzzle but at the end they said everyone gets stuck there. Wish they’d swap it out with something else! Besides that, loved it!

This was a really cute room! Very story driven. If you are looking for a cute family friendly Christmas themed room, this is the perfect one!

This theme was super cute!! Some puzzles were somewhat difficult but fun!

A delightful game infused with a sense of whimsy and Escape Venture's signature humor. I know this room gets the least amount of love of all their offerings at this location but if this is their "least good" room then they are still miles above SO many other companies. Great set design and atmospherics, intuitive and often fun puzzles, and a few surprise touches that elevated it above a standard xmas room. If you, like me, love a fun lighthearded colorful theme, give this one a shot!

Tier: B+ (see bio) It’s good, but definitely a less refined version of the formula used in their newer games. The gameplay, set design, and story are all fun, but there’s nothing that really stands out. You see early versions of the interactions and story-driven gameplay that make TEV’s newer games so good. It’s good, but I wouldn’t recommend this one over any of their more standout games. But if you live in the area or are trying to marathon all in this location, definitely don’t leave this one out. Also the name made me expect something a bit more involved (probably because of a certain older game in LA). It’s a great name but kind of overstating what the game is about. TEV Ranking: 1.

Overall a very nice cozy room that people of all ages can enjoy! Not at all spooky, so if you’re looking for some scares they have plenty of other scary rooms! If you’re looking for an easy going, comforting room that’ll bring you back to Grandma’s house, you gotta go!
