25 escape rooms
So we did the Train escape room with Escape Experience the day prior to this one. We were so excited because of the award it was nominated for. The room itself was interesting and the atmosphere was awesome. There were a bunch of details and a ton of puzzles to complete. However, some of the puzzles didn’t work correctly or work well. One puzzle opened a door. If you’ve done escape rooms, the room is if you can’t move it with two fingers, it shouldn’t be moved. Well, we “opened” the door, but it didn’t physically open. So after a while, we assumed we hadn’t done it right and spent more time trying to find something else. Finally, we asked our gamemaster and they said to open the door. We said we tried, but it wouldn’t open. Essentially my husband had to throw his shoulder against it to get it open. So we spent 5 minutes with the clue correct, but not enough force on the door. Last, there was one more puzzle that just took FOREVER to operate. We knew what we had to do, but it just took so long to make it function correctly. I don’t want to spoil it, but we took about 10 minutes on operating this one puzzle. If they fixed these two things (or maybe switched out the one puzzle) then I think it would be worth the stop. But when things do work, it’s really hard to enjoy the game.
