    Loved this game! Staff do a great job being in character throughout which was fun. There was a surprise right away (I'm not giving it away!) that I did not see coming! The puzzles were fun & challenging. 5 bonus puzzles added to the fun.

    This room starts low light but is well lit once the lights are activated. The puzzles are unique and put a new "spin" on things. There are lots of surprises- every time you think you've got it, something else opens up! The ending to the story was fun & we never saw it coming! You can tell that so much work went in to the mechanics and technology behind everything in this room. As always, the customer service at Upside Down is top notch & you can tell they love what they do Side note: If you look really closely you'll find nods to their retired rooms. Kind of fun little Easter Eggs

    The set on this game was amazing & super Immersive. Puzzles were more tech than lock & key, which was cool though 1 was kind of difficult to navigate. Puzzles were fun & challenging - sometimes we over-thought them & made them more difficult than necessary! There were puzzles that made use of everyone's different styles/talents. The interactive ending was fun

    Not an escape room. Multiple rooms with various challenges. We went twice - 6/27/21 & 1/16/23. It was fun... BUT.... definitely had the potential to be better. Both times multiple rooms were down for maintenance or were malfunctioning. Staff were all teenagers who didn't explain the rules & weren't particularly helpful. The 1st time we went, the 2 employees were running through the halls & crashed into my daughter causing her to hit her head. I sought out the manager & he did apologize & gave us passes to return

    Standard "Disarm the bomb. Save the world" theme with a British twist. Set design was nice. More tech puzzles than standard lock which is always fun & led to 1 or 2 surprises. That being said, several puzzles were vague, there were "red herrings" that we wasted time trying to solve, & some puzzles didn't work quite as intended (requiring jiggling to get them to work). There was nothing "wrong" with the staff, but nothing great either. They were all business with absolutely no warmth or friendliness. There were delays getting hints & GM had to ask if we had already tried things. The GM never spontaneously offered hints or asked if we needed one. We spent 5 minutes on the final puzzle & ultimately did not escape. From other reviews, it seems like they monitor multiple games but there were at least 3 employees on (1 walked us in, another gave hints, a 3rd walked us out). The employee at the end was a little pushy trying to get a rebook. Overall, this game had alot of potential but in my opinion customer service is everything & this place just didn't provide a great experience. I'm sure being in Boston they'll get lots of tourist business no matter what, but it's not a place I would rush back to
