    I’m absolutely blown away that a game like this could have ever existed. This game absolutely redefined the escape room universe. It had some of the best sets I’ve seen in my life, replayable puzzles, incredible special effects, and an ending that made me feel like I was on a theme park ride. This game was absolutely revolutionary and I do hope it comes back in some form.

    This game is weird to me. Maybe it was different when it was Escape Room Live and not The Escape Game, but it was like… really small. Both in terms of square footage and in terms of gameplay. It looks really good, but it’s three really cramped rooms with maybe 2 to 3 puzzles per room. It’s not a big game in the slightest and it’s just a little odd. Still a fun game though.

    If you’re playing one game at Escape Room 60, do this one. It has the best scenery and interactions the company has to offer, despite being on the older side. It’s also definitely the spookiest game they have, with a couple minor jump scares and an eerie environment. Vermonsters is a close second, but I do think this game is better overall. This is most certainly not a world class company, but it’s worth trying at least this game to see their style.

    This is pretty much an escape room crossed with an obstacle course, and it’s the best thing to exist. It’s the most replayable experience in the escape room world, and like nothing you’ve ever seen. There are more mysteries hidden inside this complex than anything else in the world. For the best experience, your team should be physical enough to climb, crawl, and jump. It’s an amazing experience that you need to book now, and there’s only one reason I’m keeping this review short. In Boda Borg, the less you know going into it, the better.

    One of the best vibes I’ve ever gotten from a game. Cheesie is absolutely the centerpiece of the experience, and is one of the best things I’ve experienced in escape room history. People are saying it’s like Chuck E. Cheese, but I very much got Five Nights At Freddy’s vibes from it. Some of the puzzles were more search based, which weren’t super fun, but the rest of the experience was fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone near Chicago.

    Very fun, even if it’s Boxaroo’s worst game. Clever puzzles with aha solutions. One major set piece is intriguing from the start, and delivers in the end. Very nice opening. Overall it’s a well done game with some clever puzzles and tricks up its sleeve, even if it’s not the most immersive. Storyteller’s Secret is the standout game here, but if you’ve got time and enough friends, this one’s pretty fun too.

    Absolutely mind blowing IF you know what you’re getting yourself into. This is NOT an escape room in the slightest. It’s an immersive, interactive art exhibition. There’s no puzzles to be solved, and while there technically is some “gameplay” you can take part in, none of that is the point. Just wandering around the place, taking everything in, and exploring is the main purpose of this place. It’s beautiful, it’s incredibly detailed down to the last inch, and it’s massive- I legitimately got lost multiple times throughout my visit. There’s tons of rooms, characters, and spaces, cavernous multi-level chambers, and more secret passages than Hogwarts. I cannot believe a place like this even exists and I absolutely cannot wait to go back.

    Interesting concept that works for better or worse. There’s four main rooms, and you get 5 minutes in each room before cycling to the next one. You do the full cycle 3 times, unless you finish early. Again, you’ve got to wait for others to finish if you do finish early, which isn’t fun. The concept was unique enough, though, so I say if you walk in and don’t expect an immersive experience or even a solid escape room, you might just enjoy yourself. It’s certainly a unique concept, and by lowering your expectations, you’ll see the best parts of it.

    Best game I’ve played in Denver so far. Immersive intro set the mood, and the puzzles in the first act were tactile and clever. Second act featured more complicated puzzles, but clued enough to make them interesting and fun. What really sets this game apart is the immersive special effects. I’ve seen plenty of rooms with a virus theme, but this one featured the ending effect that we all dreamed of. The game ends in an immersive format, not opening the doors as soon as the mission is achieved. The immersion and effects are top notch, and this is one of the greatest rooms I’ve played. Don’t miss this one.

    This game is just beautiful. It’s intimate in the best way possible. It’s a quiet, extremely well designed game and it’s incredible. You don’t need to be well versed in the theater world to play this game, but you’ll get more out of it if you have a background in it, because this game is a love letter to drama and theater. This is a fantastic game. Play it.
