The Alchemist

Sherlocked

Escape room
IRL

One of my favorite experiences of all time, escape room or otherwise. The Alchemist is magical in the truest sense, and it has some stellar puzzles and a compelling emotional arc to top it off. If you have the time and $$$, I highly recommend adding on The Lost Cabinet prequel for an even fuller experience!

Burlesque

EscapeXperience

Escape room
IRL

Quite old and run down, with a handful of decent puzzles.

Into The Reliquary

Darkmaster Escape Rooms

Escape room
IRL

Gorgeous set with some truly unforgettable features and effects. The puzzles were far more playable than Shamleys, but still an excess of random searching for tiny bits, mountains of the tiniest padlocks you've ever seen, and worn paper nonsense.

Life and Trust [Immersive Experience]

Emursive

Escape room
Other

Some truly incredible dance and fight choreography in a sprawling, awe-inspiring environment.

Dream

Escape Artists Orlando

Escape room
IRL

Many interesting ideas but comically incoherent execution, despite the dream framing. Poor signposting, countless tech reliability issues, and so so many random tiny keys. For a game that set itself up to be story centric, the story and character development were non-existent. Nonetheless, still very worth playing to see truly one of the weirdest games out there?!

Secret Studio

Escape In Time / Secret Studio

Escape room
IRL

Some genuinely creative framing and moments, but abysmal signposting especially in the first half of the game. Worth playing but with an asterisk that this is a choppier experience than it needed to be.

Het Testament

Baron Beeckman

Escape room
IRL

Easily one of my favorite games in the entire Benelux region! The setting is remarkable, the puzzles are delightfully mechanical and tactile, and there's a certain feature that makes Het Testament particularly unforgettable. We were told we were only the third group of English-speaking players to ever visit, and we were only able to play thanks to a Dutch-speaking teammate. I fully understand the company's decision not to translate the game into English, but if you're visiting from abroad and can find a way to play this, you absolutely should go out of your way to do so.

Ghost Stories

Brain Games Escape Room

Escape room
IRL

A masterfully executed delight factory! Dynamic and detailed set design, countless creative interactions, and an impressive variety of endearing and humorous ghostly vignettes. Highly recommend playing it mostly linear, even if given the option to parallelize. By far the strongest offering yet from one of the most impressive companies in the LA area, particularly when it comes to puzzles 👻

Jet2Space

Clue Adventures

Escape room
IRL

An absolutely delightful, incredibly raunchy space comedy. This game opts for a lighthearted, quirky, punny theme and commits to it 200%.

Chernobyl

TheStart

Escape room
IRL

We enjoyed all 3 experience at TheStart, but Chernobyl was their strongest offering by a mile. Our actor's performance was sublime, with a distinctive and highly athletic movement style. Great set design with some fun physical exploration, and we loved that the actual control room was nicely decorated as a Chernobyl control room for team photos. (Hot tip: if you find the Chernobyl post-apocalyptic aesthetic compelling, I recommend exploring Google Earth's extensive coverage of the area.)

Every escape room. Every haunt. Ever.

The Mystery League Remote

Clever, layered puzzles + plenty of puns + gorgeous artwork = a super puzzle hunt experience! Every experience created by The Mystery League is top notch, and this game is a particularly polished example of their style.
