The Roosevelt Escape RoomPalace GamesEscape roomIRLThis was an absolutely incredible escape room. This was our first palace games room and although it was definitely expensive ($450 per room no matter the number of people) it was so much fun. I really liked that it was 90 minutes. We felt busy the whole time and there was enough for all of us to do so that nobody was bored. There were multiple puzzles that were very unique and very clever. The atmosphere/design/tech was all awesome. We were able to complete in 75 minutes with a group of three experienced adults, although the GM says less experienced players sometimes struggle. Absolutely recommend if you can spare the money (and you get a 15% off discount for your next booking btw).
The DungeonBrooklyn Escape Room / ClaustrophobiaEscape roomIRLExcellent room!! Very immersive atmosphere. There were a lot of unique puzzles and tricky clues-it was challenging in a good way, because we didn’t breeze through it but were not slogging/stuck often. We did the room with three experienced people, even though the website recommends more, I think this is a good game for a smaller group of experienced players (although we barely escaped right in the nick of time!!). We also had to get one clue for this game. The game master, Mikal, was awesome!! They gave great clues and were very friendly. There were a couple things that were a little bit repetitive but overall the pros outweigh the cons and this is one of our favorite rooms in the area.
