The Shack

This room was pretty lame. Super tight small spaces. We had 3 adults and 3 teenage boys and it was way too small for all of us. Most of the time 4 people just stood around while 2 people worked on a puzzle. Storyline was nonexistent. I couldn’t even tell you what the point was. Zero sense of urgency.

I’m debating whether or not this is the worst room I’ve ever done. I’ll start with the pros. Pros: Nice enough set. The set design was pretty good and didn’t look cheap or run down. Gamemaster was very nice as well. Cons: Virtually everything else. The place is in a strange location, and could be hard to find for some. The room is a series of chores. The first room you will be doing essentially a chore for 90% of the time. The second room, you are doing a chore for 90% of the time. Absolutely 0 flow or direction with this room. It is also very weirdly laid out, and no background music made it feel unsettling as well. It also is not doable with 2 people, unless they give you a little extra time. This is a 3+ person game at minimum. This would have been nice to know ahead of time. Don’t waste your time or money on this room. Tampa has soooo much better than this.

First room was fine and enjoyable for a simple game and design. The second room felt more like a serious of assigned readings and tedious projects. I would recommend bringing 3-4 players for the extra hands. Lots of loose pieces and puzzles.

Not the most memorable escape room but 4/5

Room was good but I recommend the other rooms over it. Some puzzles got stuck while playing the game and it takes the fun out of it but overall good room
