Decent linear room and was completely doable with 2 enthusiasts. It’s on the easier side. This is one of the rooms that escape ventures bought from the previous owners so it’s a bit lackluster when compared to their own creations, but it’s still a fun time.

A relatively standard escape room but done very very well. Our hosts (KC2 and a long haired guy who I forgot the name of - sorry!) were a lot of fun. The room featured some interesting puzzles and the game masters commitment to staying in character really helped with the immersive atmosphere.

Very fun game, but not too many puzzles. Missing that one "wow" moment you might expect from a game of this theme - which leaves the overall game feeling a bit anticlimactic.

Fun theming, but felt small. The ending was abrupt and could have used another puzzle or two. The puzzles that were present were entertaining and well done. I loved the Easter eggs to alien movies/media!

I would give this game a mid tier, but I can’t give it a like. It has good atmosphere and it could be better, but everything leads to a lock. It needs more interesting puzzles, nothing was really fun.

Had a lot of fun! Our small group of 2 got out in about 1/2 hour and nearly broke the record! Loved how the room transitioned. I appreciated all the various pop culture references too. I only wish the ending were even more epic in terms of what they showed. GMs were great, and offered us free water bottles because we had a long wait between our marathon of rooms there. Speaking of which, the best rooms here are the other 2 by far, but don’t sleep on this extraterrestrial adventure!
