The Asylum
13th Gate Escape
Escape room
IRL
Great theming for this room. Very large setting and it was very well done with some great sound effects and vfx. This definitely stepped up the immersion. Fun intro and definitely got your blood pumping. Some puzzles were very fun and well themed. We had to break out and rescue a girl out of the asylum. It is supposed to be a horror room and it did not have the overall scary vibe we were expecting based on the hype. There were a few clues that required a bit more lighting and involved colors and that stopped us up for a few minutes. Some issues with communication with GM. Could be because they switched halfway through the room. Not sure if that is something that is usually done. Timer started before our audio finished so we lost a few minutes there. We did finish all the puzzles however there was a lot going on with this room that left a sour taste for on the experience. Still a nice room!!

Black Cat Escape 🐈⬛- The Dollhouse. July 15th 2022. Great story and great puzzles. Some very inventive ones! Awesome theming, everything including the timer was perfect! Not that spooky at all. You can choose you levels here from easy to hard. We had four minutes left and only used one hint on the hardest level. Agggaaatthhhaa!!! Shout out to Jess for killing a bunch of puzzles and hugging the bunny, Matt for breaking some stuff, and Mike for getting on the floor and solving the word riddle! I got to place the final picture! Plus we made the ghost laugh quite a few times. We even got to see the control room! 56:00 on Hard #weescaped. Overall 🔑🔑🔑🔑🔑

Magic Lamp
Gnome & Raven
Escape room

I think the only negative thing I can write in my review is that I can never experience this for the first time again. The staff was incredibly helpful. Came out in costume and had an accent. Held it the entire experience. Such a great choice. From the moment you walk in the room you are transported into another realm! Such swonderfjo use of scenery!
Rest In Peace Motel

Jonah was great. He did an amazing job with a very difficult room. He was very personable and definitely explained everything very well. The games were wonderful some great props and puzzles and the theming was epic. Such an amazing room.
The Attic

Escape room

This was next level theming. We had the opportunity to watch this being built over the months and it did not disappoint. It definitely had a nice spooky fee and there were just enough jump scares to make this more horror themed. There was also one amazing detail that we were asked not to reveal. But it was worth the wait!
The Stray Cat Speakeasy
Black Cat Escape Room
Escape room
IRL
One of the best lobby’s around. Truly something worth checking out. Such a friendly staff, our GM Olivia was so great. Personable and such an exuberance for the game. A nice little entrance to the room that actually was a bit more involved than you were made to tau. Nicely themed. That is something that is really done well at Black Cat. YYou can tell they love their work. The only issue with Speakeasy rooms is that puzzles tend to fall into five categories: money, dice, drinks, poker chips and cards. This room is no different, however there were some novel a approaches to these well used puzzles. The card puzzle was particularly fun and interesting.
Clue
Breakout Games - Virginia Beach
Escape room
IRL
This was a nice room. Very high tech, but also a fun time. Very nice theming that will definitely hit the nostalgia angle and appeal to fans of the game however it felt a bit lacking in the overall puzzle aspect. There were also a few things that were broken in the room which both created some issue but also provided unintentional help. I think this room was victim of having to wait a year and the anticipation build up. It had a hard time meeting it, however for others, I would say a definite must do.
The Tomb Ruins
Gnome & Raven
Escape room
IRL
This location is easily one of the best escape rooms around. While their Genie Room has garnered so many accolades, I can say without a doubt that this was my favorite room yet. For me an escape room is meant to offer that brief respite from everyday life. The puzzles and settings are supposed to transport us and Gnome and Raven certainly does in every room. In the Tomb Ruins the only thing I get like I needed was a hat and a bull whip. It is that immersive. Such a wonderful job. I am so sad this was our last room there!
The Cursed
Operation Escape
Escape room
IRL
An incredibly well themed room. Set in the swamp, you felt like you were in the swamp. Great music, great sound effects, great props and lighting. Surprising amount of technology and video. Definitely good add ins to the room. Great manual puzzles as well. I would have to say the skulls were my favorite, with the door being a close second. Two great choke points to slow people down. The key which was an interesting two person job. Need some good communication there. Also the fireflies. Hate them. Hope they die. Other than that, maybe a little fog to add to the ambience. That’s just being picky. Great room!
Ghostly Encounter

Escape room

This was a very fun room. Had a few twists that might get some newer players but overall it was extremely fun. The theming is impeccable and the theatrics in the room were spot on. As always, everyone here is so friendly and welcoming! Truly one of the best escape rooms around.
