Down The Rabbit Hole
The Final Door
Escape room
IRL
Out of the 20 rooms I'm up to so far this was my favorite. It was well themed the GM was full spirited in the story she was AMAZING! The rooms were BEAUTIFUL and the puzzles were challenging.
Ruins: Forbidden Treasure
The Escape Game - Berry Hill
Escape room
IRL
This room was a lot of fun. There was some tunnel travel, and a bit dark (I'd suggest a mini flashlight.) It was a little scary (not horror just dark and put you on edge.) I loved the sound effects and the puzzles were unique.
Clairvoyants Conundrum
River City Escape Room
Escape room

Hidden Needle Tattoo Parlor
The Exit Games - Princess St.
Escape room

After we were done with this room our entire family just talked about how much fun it was. The puzzles were unique, and it was decorated really just just like a tattoo parlor.
Under Pressure
Key to Escape
Escape room
IRL
Wow, this room is impressive. It may not be the most difficult but every puzzle is a work of love and so unique. The owner loves gadgets and really is amazing at what he's brought "back to life" to pull this room off. It's beautiful, it feels immersive. Even as far as how you receive "helps" is cool. We drove about 45 minutes out of our vacation plans to try it out, and it was WELL worth it, and plan to make the multi hour drive from home to try the other two rooms soon!
Clue
Breakout Games - Greensboro
Escape room
IRL
This was a really disengaging room. While it was well decorated and on theme, and was just boring. The puzzles seemed very linear so we weren't able to work on separate puzzles at one time. Even after getting our answer to the room, we didn't feel like it was 100% correct. It was quite ambiguous not from difficulty but by design. The GM was not engaging either.
Dark Winter's Night - Clash With Krampus
Backstage Escape Games
Escape room
IRL
I loved the game play and the story. The decor was great, puzzles were not easy but reachable. We did use two clues but one was a frustrating thing we just missed. Also a great Holiday themed room!
Rest Easy Motel
Game On Escape Rooms
Escape room
IRL
There were a few jump scares in this room (that were a bit much for the 10 year old skittish niece.) That being said it was an awesome room! Great puzzles, quite difficult, and just edgy enough to keep you a bit tense throughout the process. I loved the decor very on theme.
Special Ops: Mysterious Market
The Escape Game - Gatlinburg
Escape room
IRL
Fun room, lots of unique puzzles, and well decorated. The story was really enjoyable and went well with the decor and puzzles. We had a hiccup where the game setup missed something in the reset that was slightly annoying, but didn't prevent us from having a great time. A great mix of mechanical and techy puzzles.
Mission: Mars
The Escape Game - Pigeon Forge
Escape room
IRL
My kids were a bit younger 8 and 11 and they got full body astronaut costumes which really got them excited. The puzzles were unique and fun and lots of stuff to touch and play with. It was a spectacularly gimmicky room. It was one of my first escape rooms so I didn't have a lot to compare it to, but remember enjoying it, and it being a great a/c unit in the HOT summer activities of the day.
Algernon’s Shop of Magical Goods
Escape Room RVA
Escape room
IRL
The room decor was really top-notch. (Actually the entire facility is amazing including hallways/lobbies, etc. I completely disagree with a review I read where they stated this room is the same puzzles over and over, that's just not accurate they used varying locks, puzzles, clue finding, etc. The game master here was also awesome, full personality waited for us to ask for assistance. If you have any in your group into D&D this room has several nods to that, which made my teen boys heart sing. The only thing I will say that could have been improved is that the room has an almost serial puzzling strategy which sometime results in some standing around for groups larger than 2-3.
