Special Ops: Mysterious MarketThe Escape Game - Penn QuarterEscape roomIRLThe story line is okay. It plays the way you expect a chain escape room would play. A few of the puzzles were clever but the rest didn’t have a logical leap or weren’t creative.
The Legend of SasquatchMission Escape Rooms - AnnapolisEscape roomIRLThe room was well done. Props were pretty well maintained. Some of the laminated paper props were getting a little worn but didn’t take away from the puzzles. Had a good variety of puzzles for a mixed group. The only thing I wish they had was a sound track to the room and a more dramatic ending. Ending was a little lack luster and no one came to get you after the room was over.
Fair GameRed Door Escape Room - GaithersburgEscape roomIRLThis room was really fun. I was impressed with the puzzles that were carnival based
Death by ChocolateBond's Escape Room - ArlingtonEscape roomIRLOne of my least favorite escape rooms. Some of the props were so worn it was hard to do the puzzle. The props were also sticky? I love the concept but really disliked the puzzles
Sherlock Holmes: A Matter of TimeEscape Room Live - AlexandriaEscape roomIRLI really liked this room. There were some clever puzzles and all of the reveals in the room were very well maintained and hidden. My husband and I played two rooms during our visit and Max and Eden were such great game masters. We met a few other people before and after our game and they were also so nice and friendly. This room is a little smaller so group sizes between 2-4 are perfect for this game.
Crime SceneEscape This FrederickEscape roomIRLThis room was fun but nothing to groundbreaking. I liked most of the puzzles, a few you needed to make a little bit of a jump to solve. Definitely a great fun mom and pop type place.

MaydayEscapology - BethesdaEscape roomIRLThis room was okay. The set of the plane was very cool but some of the props were getting worn. I will stay whomever is overall in charge of this facility was just eh. She was annoyed my friends and I were there early, the room wasn’t set but we knew we were early so we told her we didn’t mind waiting but she just disappeared for maybe 15/20 minutes. We actually then ended up starting like 5/10 minutes late. Again not a huge deal but for the stink she was making it was just annoying
