女王と国のために [For Queen & Country]Studio Escape NipponbashiEscape roomIRLAs the owners are originally from UK, the rooms are catered for both Japanese and English language, and it is smooth. The hosts are great and very helpful. This room and all the other rooms within Studio Escape are one of the best I've ever played. The stories are compelling, and the decoration are top class. The price of the rooms are high, but these rooms still gets my highest recommendation!
ExtractionThe Curium ExperienceEscape roomIRLI will just echo what others have said, this is probably the most advanced escape room in Melbourne, and highly recommend it.

Australia's Original Escape RoomEscape Room Melbourne - ERMEscape roomIRLThis was my very first escape room and set my love for escape rooms! Walked towards the backyard and saw the mother in the living room watching TV surrounded by books. I initially thought we had to play around her as she watches haha, but the real room was actually in the old garage. Would highly recommend especially for first timers or beginners!
The Crumbling Prince - Episode 2UkiyoEscape roomIRLEnjoyable but still preferred Episode 1. This one felt more like Episode 1a rather than Episode 2 to be honest. Apparently they have plans to create a number of Episode (5+?), but this was mentioned almost 10 years ago so I think that plan is out the window.
Dragon’s DungeonEscape Artistz Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLI am very surprised to see this room rated so highly. It was basic at best. The GM just lets us in without saying a word, so we have no clue what this story is about. Apparently we are in a dungeon, however the walls and floor were just painted with one colour and had no texture. Props were simple, and we could even hear the other room next door clearly.
Alien AssaultMystery Manila - Century City MallEscape roomIRLMy opinion is that you should start players with an easy or straightforward puzzle to help start off, or some sort of storyline. I spent the first few minutes to find out what the first step was, and when it was found, it was a little unusual. However as you progress, it starts to slowly make sense. The props were great, and they made use of the puzzles quite well. There is a lot of electronic puzzles but what can you expect being on a spaceship. And they at least tie up the story at the end, which some rooms forget to do.
Ever AfterBreakout PhilippinesEscape roomIRLThis room had some simple puzzles but effective enough. The decoration is a bit mixed quality, and while there is a theme to the decorations, the story line was a bit of a stretch to follow. The props were acceptable, but some were falling apart.
FlushedLeft Behind The Great Escape - Circuit X MakatiEscape roomIRLThe story matches well with the decor of the room, and you feel compelled to progress the story. There is flow, and some parts are frustrating puzzles that you kick yourself when you finally solve it. The best kind of puzzle in my opinion. They make use of the room quite well, and feels larger than what it really is.
The Last StationLeft Behind The Great Escape - Vertis North X Quezon CityEscape roomIRLThis was actually surprisingly enjoyable. The ambience was good and did enough to 'transport' you to a different location. The puzzles remained on theme, and instructions were relatively straight forward, except for one which involved an electronical puzzle. I have a love/hate relationship with electronic puzzles and this one tested me. Apart from that, I would recommend this room over the others at this location.
