Drachenhöhle 2.0 [Dragon Cave 2.0]Open the DoorEscape roomIRLI’ve played quite a few escape rooms, even more than I’ve noted here, and this was by far the best one I’ve experienced. You can really feel the love and attention to detail that went into it, and our gamemaster turned it into a truly memorable adventure. Unfortunately, it’s a bit far from Northern Germany – otherwise I would have already played every room this company offers.

The puzzles were creative and the staff was very friendly. Even if you’re not into role-playing, it’s absolutely fine – the game still works well. Some of the hints are references to the game’s world, but they’re not really relevant for solving the puzzles.

We were pushed into a linear sequence and basically forced to solve the puzzles in the exact order, since hints came very quickly. I found that a bit of a pity. Without the constant direction, it would have been much cooler. Also, the briefing and start were extremely rushed – within about 3 minutes we were already in the room. A little more time and care would have been nice. Still, the room is definitely worth playing.

Because of this, everything felt a bit spontaneous and many mistakes were made during the introduction. As a result, the whole mission turned out rather poorly. Still, it was nice that they tried, and we even got a round of drinks as an apology. From what I could tell, the knowledge from Part 1 was not really relevant. I had hoped to see more developments from Part 1, but it felt more like a spin-off. The cliff-hanger from the first part was not addressed at all. Overall, the second part gives you more information about the whole storyline, but it was still unsatisfying — you want to know how it continues. For that reason, I don’t really see it as a true Part 2 but more as a spin-off side story. I believe that with a proper introduction it would actually have been a lot of fun.
Tiefen Der ZeitEloriaEscape roomIRLThe first part was really good. We were accompanied the whole time by two actors who consistently stayed in character. You could even share a joke or two with them. It was truly something different. The supporting actors were also interesting. We had to strictly stay in our assigned roles throughout the entire game and sometimes even justify ourselves to the supporting actors so as not to jeopardize our mission. I can highly recommend this experience. The story is – as the title suggests – not yet finished. The second part isn’t either. There will probably be at least one more. I really recommend it. I also recommend coming in the morning, as it noticeably got busier around midday.
