The Man From BeyondStrange Bird ImmersiveEscape roomIRLI’ll need to make room in my top five again for Strange Bird. From the lobby to the gameplay everything was great. Madame Daphne was great and pulled you in to the immersion immediately. Some very cool scenes and props that are one of a kind. Not a typical escape room and more immersion theater but was a perfect blend of puzzles and theater. Some will say the price is high but plan on an hour and a half to two hours. It’s a great game and must do if you are in the Houston area. By far the best one I’ve done in Texas so far.
Hope EndThe Ministry Of PeculiaritiesEscape roomIRLSo this room, or should I say company, did it. This was my favorite experience to date. From the main host being an amazing actor at the beginning and things begin as soon as you fill out your waivers and get inside. The experience felt immersive theater mixed blended with the escape room murder mystery feel. This room lived up to the hype and what a great company. My goodness this was so fun and right up my alley of how I would like things to go. Story telling from start to finish. I’m so glad I got a chance to do this room was some great company. The actor in this room made this room so fun. Be prepared to independently think because you may not get to rely on your friends for very long. The more you put into this room the better it is. Well done.
40 ThievesMindTrap Escape Room - TemeculaEscape roomIRLThis is probably my second favorite room, first for set design and tech. We played with two people. It is a 70 minute room. From the time you sit to listen to the intro to the ending you are immersed in the story. It’s such a beautiful room. I am a huge fan of multiple rooms in one experience and this didn’t disappoint. We were really in awe of the complexity of the puzzles and how simple they were at the same time. The interaction with the shop keepers made the story. This is a must play. There is a lot to do so bring some people that can communicate. Two people can do it but you have to work fast and communicate.
Ruins: Forbidden TreasureThe Escape Game - Berry HillEscape roomIRLThis was a great room. Very fun. Well thought out. Teamwork is key. Decor is great. There were some puzzles that you kind of had to guess and trial and error, which we were lucky on but I could see how it would be frustrating. The puzzles were and something new I haven’t seen. Really had fun in this room. Highly recommend it
The Last SupperQuest TavernEscape roomIRLThis room is great. You kill a lot of your time interacting. But man the more you put into this the more you get out of it. It was so much fun. Again not the most high tech room but it was cool and one of my favorite rooms for the change in traditional “escape” room.
The Weeping WitchCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLI’m no stranger to Crossroads games but got to play the new Weeping Witch. This game is a spooky game and so much fun. There were some challenging parts and some very interesting puzzles. The theme was fantastic and the live actor is a very welcome addition to a crossroads room. This room is one of the best ones I’ve done and my favorite along the horror/spooky themed. This room is a must do. Beware the crying.
Stash HouseStash HouseEscape roomIRLThis has been on my to do list since they opened in January 2018. I was so excited to play Stash House today. It’s a ton of fun and doors kept opening and the space kept expanding. The room flows very well. The theme is great. I would have liked to have seen one puzzle changed because I had to keep hitting repeat and have to replay the whole sequence over again but it was still a fun puzzle. There a couple things that need to be changed but certainly lived up to the hype. I loved this game.
Wizard's TaleEscape Again RoomsEscape roomIRLOne thing escape again rooms do well is hiding additional rooms within the rooms and it makes it feel like a large experience. Wizard was a great room. Everything worked as it should and flowed really well. Must do at escape again.
THE ENDings [Immersive Experience]Strange Bird ImmersiveEscape roomOther This one is. Little weird for me. Did we have a good time…Yes. This is not a typical escape room and involves zero (okay maybe one) lock or puzzle. This is a choose your own adventure narration. The front lobby was great. The actress/receptionist was fantastic. After that it just seemed a bit odd. The ending was scripted well but I left wanting more or wanting something different maybe. Strange bird does a great job with the stories but I just had a vision of what this would be going into it but I believe my expectations were too high thanks to a A Man From Beyond. Overall, it was fun and funny at the same time but be prepared to walk and have an imagination. It’s different for sure.
