    Unlike anything we’ve ever done before! It’s a little too easy for experienced crews, and we had a couple small technical difficulties where things didn’t unlock until we jiggled things around which wasted time, but the unique setup is memorable it and I think it’s worth a visit doing if you’re in the area.

    Simply incredible. Enjoyable puzzles, great build up, super fun theme, and an outstanding set. I went into it blind and it was very worth it. The crowning jewel of 13th gate 💎

    Trapped Escape Game

    • Escape room
    • IRL
    Fun, creative room. I like history and maritime themes so this room was a treat. Trapped does some really interesting puzzles that I like a lot, but that includes some puzzles that have awkward failure cases. We needed the GM to come in at one point to reset a puzzle that had become unsolvable. It wasn’t the end of the world but it was immersion breaking. There was also a puzzle with a misleading clue that we gave some feedback on, and hopefully Trapped will address it. One other ding is how many similar locks are in the room. At one point there were 3 or 4 locks in play that we had to run each code through because there was no indication which lock the code was for - that design pitfall should be avoided. Otherwise, we enjoyed the room, and I consider it an above average experience, mostly for the seamless tie-in with the historical elements. If you’re not into history, this may be more of a middle tier experience for you.

    The room is filled with clever, relatively easy/moderate puzzles, but a lot of them. We didn’t need any clues, and were able to get through it with an experienced team of two with plenty of time to spare. Everything worked flawlessly and the room flowed well from start to finish, sticking with the story and theme throughout. We left with smiles on our faces! It’s a solid set with above average technology! Well done! 👍

    The room is cute and clever, and has good, straightforward puzzles. Our team of 2 flew through it in just over 20 minutes so it’s hard to give it a heart but we enjoyed it throughly and vibed with the puzzles. It has a decent set, and we like witchy themes so it was an easy choice for us. Plus the folks we met were very friendly and enthusiasts which is always a huge plus! 🤓 The business doubles as a gaming lounge so it’s definitely worth a visit, as they had 100s of board games in stock!

    Not bad! Puzzles were good, room flowed well and we never felt too confused. Only needed one hint for a hidden item we barely missed. Otherwise it was straightforward and had some rewarding puzzles. Very few traditional locks, too! 👍

    So few scare actors I almost gave it a thumbs down, but the few that were there gave it their best. The set is good, and it’s a pretty long house with multiple areas. The scariest of the 3 houses
