Castle FlüffendorEscape Artist Greenville - Hampton StationEscape roomIRLBest game I've ever played! Very whimsical, lovingly crafted, creative & VERY fun puzzles.
USS McKoyBlack Mountain EscapeEscape roomIRLThis was one of the best rooms I've ever done. The owner's passion & care for his craft really came through in the game. Set design was immersive, puzzles were creative, fun, & challenging. It's genuinely a shame that they were unable to reopen after Helene. They will be missed!
Shipwreck IslandSplit Oak Axescape GamesEscape roomIRLLoved the set design! Puzzles were signposted well and made logical sense. Fairly thorough search phase needed, lots of stuff hiding in plain sight. Tech was well maintained and worked as expected. Manager was friendly & knowledgeable.
The Broken PortalAdventures of IntrigueEscape roomIRLThe game itself was okay. Extremely cramped and poorly utilized space, especially given that the Intrigue concept is predicated on games distributed across the entire premises. Wand was tricky to work for shorter players, fancy cryptex broke immediately despite the care and respect with which we try to handle things. Some grace given because we were play testers at an industry event prior to AoI opening, we expected some hiccups but I just don't think this game is in line with what I expect visiting an Intrigue location.
