Cabin 13Escape Manor BrisbaneEscape roomIRLWe were worried that the live actor could be cringy, but they weren’t at all. It was fun and different to have the actor there and I would recommend it to anyone on the fence about it. It was pretty scary but not too bad, a couple of jump scares.
HeistQuest RoomEscape roomIRLThis was probably one of the most high tech rooms I’ve done on the GC/Bris. It’s a fun theme, some of the puzzles are quite difficult but it was still fun. I usually only do these with two players, we only just finished so I’d say take a few friends if you want an easier time!
Tesla's MysteryFox in a Box BrisbaneEscape roomIRLThis was a fun experience and a unique theming, it was also a little difficult for just 2 players but still manageable!
The FairytalesMystic EscapeEscape roomIRLThere were some really cool puzzles in this game, however the first part is quite difficult and not as logical as other rooms I’ve done. We struggled with the first few puzzles, but it improved after that.
The GardenStrike WintergardenEscape roomIRLI didn’t find the puzzles to be very logical, there wasn’t really a clear order and the puzzles were difficult because of that. There is one spooky part but not enough to scare you too much / ruin the experience. I didn’t mind the theme and some of the puzzles were cool, it just didn’t flow very well. Instead of having a GM to help you there is an iPad that gives you clues or the answer.
ForensicStrike WintergardenEscape roomIRLI found the puzzles quite convoluted and it didn’t flow very well. The props and rooms were nice, though. There is an iPad that gives you clues and eventually the answer if you need it, there’s no GM to watch over you. It’s a different experience, some may like that but I found the puzzles a bit of a stretch and hard to figure out.
Alien InvadersStrike Surfers ParadiseEscape roomIRLThe theme and style of this room is really unique and different to other escape rooms I’ve tried. Unfortunately we had several puzzles malfunction, and there is no GM watching you (you’re left to your own devices) so it took us a really long time to get it to work which wasted time on the clock. It didn’t flow particularly well, but there were some really cool, impressive and high tech puzzles. It’s a shame, this room has a lot of potential.
