8-Bit EscapeEscape Room HerndonEscape roomIRLOne caveat first: I grew up in the 80s so a little biased. That said: LOVED this room! As a starting point, the game premise is incredibly unique, and well executed. And the theming gave me so many childhood flashbacks I was grinning ear to ear even when we had barely started the game. And the ending was a beautifully designed surprise. If I had any complaints, it would only be that the room was a little tight for our group of 5, and there were a lot of lock puzzles to solve. That said, they still managed to squeeze in some new and unique puzzles I had never seen before but were perfect for the time period theme.
Jewel of the SeaIntrepid Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis was a great game that took a fairly common escape room theme of pirates and took it to the next level. The theming was spot on, and it had some very unique puzzles I have never seen elsewhere. There was one effect in particular that blew me away (you'll know it when you see it!) Our game master Dani did an exceptional job and really got in the act during the intro. Only issue was the room was a bit tight for our group of 5; think 3 or 4 would be perfect for it.
Timeliner: Train Through TimeThe Escape Game - TampaEscape roomIRLGreat room with a unique premise that stands out from most games. Very good mix of puzzles and there were a lot of them. Some we got right away, and some took a bit of a leap of logic, but still very clever. Even though there are some old school mechanical locks and puzzles, there are some great use of technology in the room. Definitely recommend.
Starship | Interstellar EscapeWild Goose Escapes - FullertonEscape roomIRLWe had a blast in this room. Experience was kicked off by our Gamemaster Anna who really set the mood. The room itself was incredibly well themed, and had enough puzzles to keep us busy for close to the entire hour, escaping with 6 minutes left. This room is tricky in that it has a primary mission that has to be executed at the same time you are repairing the ship and you have to be careful to balance both activities. All that said, it kept all our team members engaged and the puzzles varied enough everyone found a task they enjoyed working through. Will also say we appreciated that afterwards, Anna took the time to answer our questions about the gameplay we just went through and made suggestions for other Wild Goose Escape games we might like based on our experience. Highly recommend this location and will definitely return!
