    Very cool vibes, sounds, setwork, and puzzles. Anything we ended up needing hints on in hindsight would have been logical (if hard) to figure out had we had more than 2 people :) recommend 4 experienced escapers or 6 less experienced. Very cool experience :)

    Great atmosphere, cool tech, fun/interesting puzzles. Zero finicky locks/etc which made for a super engaging experience!

    Just saying, Benny was the best. You’ll see :) This was a really fun room.

    I love escape rooms that have physical locks (not electronic puzzles), and this one’s cool atmosphere worked really well to create a fun room with a brisk pace. I usually don’t like “speakeasy” escapes (played out) but this one had a fun theme (get your baseball back :)) that kept it light and not the traditional “mob” vibe.

    Great room! Went with my (experienced) party of 2 — really used complementary skillsets! Puzzles were interesting, great feedback when we got the puzzle correct vs got it wrong, very cool atmosphere.

    Fun little room! Brought my 5yo and they let me book back-to-back 30min slots so I could take the time to work thru puzzles with him rather than run them myself. We only barely needed the extra time, if that tells you the level of difficulty of the room, but it was a great intro room!

    Atmosphere was amazing, gameplay… had potential. There were some things that we got stuck on that turned out to kinda be bugs (not doing something hard enough with no indication that would be required, one thing that actually bugged out that worked on the 3rd-4th try etc). Would have been PHENOMENAL if it didn’t leave us feeling frustrated at those parts.

    Pretty fun, more challenging than expected for a kid friendly one, but definitely would do with a family!

    Room looked really promising when we first entered, but the puzzle sensors didn’t seem to register very well, doors/drawers were unlocked by random activities without being clear about cause and effect, and audio was all over the place — it combined to make it really tough to know if you’d done something correctly, and even when you did, where to look to reap your rewards. Lot of promise but needs tweaks to be great.
