The Wine VaultGrapevine EscapeEscape roomIRLWe enjoyed this room. Our favorite part was the homemade glass wine bottle puzzle. Puzzles here are linear. Online recommends four people or more, but we did it with 2 without issue. The game master was very responsive, you get unlimited clues, and they also chime in if they think you need a hint to ensure you can finish the room. They also offer drinks while you play here.
Gnome's AdventureEscapismEscape roomIRLFor tourists such as ourselves note it’s ~45 minutes from Auckland sky tower. We didn’t realize this until it was too late but they were very accommodating. They have options for this game (standard mode - find your uncle, and dark mode - escape the evil wizard).
Bank HeistLockbustersEscape roomIRLThe rooms here are cool because it looks like they spent lots making them. I recommend doing it with a group of 6 or less. We were a group of 10, and only 4 people could fit in one of the spaces at a time. I felt like we had trouble getting hints from the game master. We made it out, but only cause the game master gave us a code to skip all the puzzles in the second room.
