Ruins: Forbidden TreasureThe Escape Game - Berry HillEscape roomIRLThis was one of my favorite escape games of all time. So fun and innovative! It was challenging, but my 7 year old was still able to contribute and participate.
A Pirate's CurseEscapology - San Antonio Park NorthEscape roomIRLWay too easy. Nothing required more than a minute of effort. Pretty room, would recommend it for newbies and kids, but not for experience escape room people.
A Quest For FreedomOlde City Escape GamesEscape roomIRLGreat room! Loved the local theme to this room. It was easy though—we didn’t need any hints.
Orient ExpressGreat Room Escape - San AntonioEscape roomIRLI did this room with 4 first timers and 2 people who had done a few rooms. We were told at the beginning that all of the rooms have a 6% or less escape rate. Having done a ton of escape rooms, that is EXTREMELY low and I think they should make that prominent on the website so that people understand what they are walking into. That being said, my group, although new to escape rooms, was made up of a group of nerds (all high level degrees and scholars), so the puzzle solving was not as hard as just figuring out the “game” of escape rooms. Some of the elements were well worn and could stand to be updated, but it was a great first escape rooms for this group. I would not recommend this for newer players otherwise. Also, I read in other reviews that there was no AC. We had AC, but it was dismal and we were still sweating by the end. Found a great happy hour nearby though. Also, you have to pay for any nearby parking, so keep that in mind when booking.
