Reset the 90sReality EscapeEscape roomIRLWe were honestly surprised at how bad of an experience this was. There was no flow to the room. Dry erase marker was dead, which led to a lot of time trying to get it to work in order to solve a puzzle that ended up being a red herring. One key that was meant to be found through another puzzle was just lying on the floor. We seemed to be ahead in some ways, but behind in others and none of it made sense. Very frustrating experience. No story, no ambiance, zero immersion.
Detention: One Last Day of SummerArmadillo Escape Room AdventuresEscape roomIRLThis was a very simple, paired down experience with some decent puzzles. Our GM, Joseph, was very welcoming and friendly. We forgot to mention that we prefer not to receive hints unless we ask, so I can’t fault them for that. Would recommend going without hints if you’re an experienced team.
School After Hours: The Final RushArmadillo Escape Room AdventuresEscape roomIRLThere are definitely some mixed feelings about this one. It was fine, but there were more red herrings in this room than I’ve seen in over 160 previous experiences. Some logic leaps, as well. Other than that, it was not bad.
Disappearance: Last LocationWill To Escape - OrlandoEscape roomIRLThis is my favorite experience at this location. The immersion, the story, the theme integration with every puzzle… All really well crafted. I can’t do horror rooms and was happy they didn’t go the usual route. It was eerie, but not over the top. Trevor was fantastic. He set the tone perfectly and we really enjoyed speaking with him after we were finished.
Shadows In The Night [prev. Shadows of the Skunk Ape]Premier Escape AdventuresEscape roomIRLWhat a delightful experience! Such a fun twist on a camping/cabin/outdoors room. There were some really standout puzzles and lots of laughs. Lots to take in, just a great time. It made me excited to come back and play their other rooms.
Phantom Files: The Investigation Of Lockturne ManorThe Escape Ventures - Port CharlotteEscape roomIRLWhat an absolute delight this room is! From the moment you step foot inside, you’re struck with how beautiful and detailed the set design is. I found myself lingering in different areas because they were so striking. The atmospheric sounds and lighting really add to the immersion and pull you into the story. The humor and easter eggs were fabulous - I was laughing and delighted throughout the entire experience. The puzzles were great and everything flowed really well. Would very highly recommend for both enthusiasts and new players.
Crazy Train: The Ballad of Skeemin' PlotzDoldrick's Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis is a must play room, full stop. So beautifully crafted with a hilarious storyline integrated in every aspect of the set design and puzzles. You can tell how much time and care went into this room and it was well worth the wait. Puzzles were unique spins on classics and it had the hallmark charm of Doldrick’s other rooms. Even with the minor issue we had, this was one of the best rooms we’ve done in a good while. Definitely play this room!
Robot RebellionThe Bureau Adventure GamesEscape roomIRLThis was a terrible experience, start to finish. I hate to have to say this because the idea sounded really cute/fun, but it was shockingly awful. They tell you straight off this is not a traditional escape room, but that’s not what we took issue with. The “puzzles” were tedious and repetitive. A lot of items were unresponsive or broken, but the game host denied them when we mentioned it after. The clue system rebooted itself when we were trying to tell them something wasn’t working. When it finally came back up, the pre-programmed hint told us to do what we were already trying to do. The video game animations and cut scenes took ages to load, so we were left sitting wondering what we were meant to be doing. We were short-changed on the time - it was meant to be a rescue as many robots as you can in 60 minutes experience. They started us late and ended us early. Turns out, that was merciful because we absolutely did not want to be forced to do that anymore. This was bad. Save your money.
Crypt Of The VampireMystique Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis room was pretty good overall. There were a few puzzles that could be far more effective/fun with some minor tweaks, but overall a solid experience. Mildly spooky vibes, but not scary. Appreciated the lantern in the room to help with the atmospheric dim lighting.
Doomsday DisasterLocksmith Escape GamesEscape roomIRLSuper fun, cute room. Lots of humorous elements. One puzzle did our heads in a bit and it was sweltering in there, but we still had a great time! Excellent set design and story incorporation.
