Castle FlüffendorEscape Artist Greenville - Hampton StationEscape roomIRLAnother great room from Escape Artist. More family friendly and whimsical than most rooms I've played, but the use of the animatronics/puppets is such a great choice. This place never disappoints!
The CellsUrban Escape Games - MariettaEscape roomIRLOverall a fine room. The way it unfolds is good, but felt like a lot of wasted space. We also had a door open on its own, which made things confusing, and then a 2nd door opened without any clear reason why. The first isn't a big deal, it happens. The 2nd, though, 3 out of the 4 of us tried the door and it didn't open, and then a 4th tried it later and it was open. Some detail work could definitely move this from a fine room to a really good one
The KidnappingBreakout Games - GatlinburgEscape roomIRLCompared to the Breakout closer to home (Greenville, SC), I can at least say this was a better venue. Our GM paid close attention and was very helpful. The room was fine, done as a family with my wife and 2 children (17 and 11). There was one scare of sorts, but the puzzles were typical Breakout fare. At least twice, we had issues inputting an electronic code, but our GM was paying close enough attention to confirm we had input it correctly and told us to try again. That's what pushed this to a thumbs up review.
