Runaway TrainBreakout Games - ColumbiaEscape roomIRLThis was my 3rd escape with Breakout Columbia, and the first one that I felt had mostly coherent, linked clues. The theming was simple but consistent, and the GM was there to give us pointers on some of the harder/less-intuitive clues. (Yes I always get grumpy when I can't figure something out. Yes this is my own character flaw.) A good room for kids who want to try it - some math problems doable for late elementary/Middle schoolers so they can feel part of the team.
Last ShowingMission Escape Rooms - Arundel MillsEscape roomIRLMy positive review is mostly related to the quality of the props, which were clever, well made and engaging. Unfortunately we missed out on the fun finale because a puzzle in the middle stumped us for about 15 minutes because the pieces were not logically connected. With a little better puzzle design this would get a big thumbs up.
