if you’re a harry potter fan i think you’re bound to like this room more than others will, but overall it is your standard “great” room. a LOT of combo lock/lock and key puzzles but theres some cool gimmicks in there as well my biggest gripe really is that the room is TOO easy imo i only did it with one other person and found it wasnt that challenging really at all - but if you finish early the team lets you do a bonus challenge which is pretty fun! 6.5/10 - recommend for beginners or newer players, solid room

Walden’s Wizarding Shop is a cute game that I would recommend for two players. My group of four found it a bit too easy as we breezed through the game in just over 30 minutes. While our game master was very accommodating, three things went wrong during our play, including one puzzle that malfunctioned and another time a drawer opened with a light pull, despite it meaning to be secured until later in the game. The animatronics are a nice touch that you don’t often see in games. I would’ve liked to see an animatronic during the climactic finale of the game as the music was quite grande, but the visuals accompanying did not match.

Two things experienced issues during our play and the game master had to come reset them. One drawer also opened with a very light pull that was not meant to.

Fantastic room at a fantastic company. Room is totally suitable for all ages, families, dates/duos, etc and beginner friendly. Very fun wizarding components to make the room feel alive. Quite challenging bonus puzzle(s) if you finish early. Definitely a crowd pleaser kind of room.

I loved Walden's! Loved the props, theme, set - amazing experience! I'm glad no 'Harry Potter' knowledge is needed. I loved how the games/puzzles flowed without any setbacks. One of the most smoothest escape rooms I have experienced! The bonus puzzle is also very unique and creative!

Fun for sure!

This was a really fun and well-themed room! Definitely pulls from a familiar storyline (😉) but still its own thing. The “magic” was a different enough aspect that made puzzle-solving all the more exciting and on theme. We came close to tying the record so it’s not a particularly difficult room but the puzzles are still fun. Since we finished so early, we were offered a “bonus” puzzle that was more challenging than the puzzles in the room and that was a really nice touch.

What a great room! From set design, to a well-executed room packed with great puzzles. The story is whimsical and fun. We loved the room, and even trying to think back to our favorite puzzle is tough. Not a difficult room, but definitely recommended! And once again, fabulous team at looking glass!

Great room! Pretty easy, but gets you really involved. There was a mishap with some technology thing, but was corrected. And the staff was so nice!
