This is an important thing people need to know about this venue. It is located in a shopping mall. If you schedule a time outside of mall hours, you will need to enter via a small, hard to find door near the Dillards.

Got out of here in 44 minutes with a few minor challenges! We used one clue and were re directed once, so not an entirely challenging room! We enjoyed it!
Amazing game master, so sweet

We enjoyed this room! Normally our escape room team is 3 people and this is the first time we’ve only had 2 of the 3, so in general we struggled. We liked all the puzzles

Me and my wife were blessed with a voucher for a escape room experience for two by some family members and decided to book this experience on a whim. We both have a decent amount of experience with completing previous escape rooms, and the theming of this room caught our attention. While we enjoyed the theming of the experience, the room does feel a bit older and some of the set looked like it needed to be taken care of better. The puzzles were fun, but we were given lots of hints in solving them (although we had asked to only receive hints when requested). If you’re into escape rooms that utilize tech and don’t rely as much on locks, you might not enjoy this room. Overall, I’m mixed. It’s a fun room but not one I recommend higher above other rooms I’ve completed. Be blessed and puzzle on! 😁
The room had some fun puzzles, but was nothing too challenging. It should be noted that some of the puzzles were a bit hard to see due to dim lighting in the room, but they allow you to use your phone in the room so this can be remedied by using the flashlight.
While the design was cool, the room is quite old. Some of the elements were falling apart; the wallpaper in places was peeling and the carpet was coming off of its tape.
We were treated very kindly, our only point of contention was how often hints were given to us while we were playing even though we had noted to the GM that we only wanted hints upon request. Me and my wife still had a blast, but the frequency of hints propelled us through the room quickly (we had fifteen minutes remaining at the end).

I think the premise of the room was creative but puzzles revolve mostly around finding codes for different kinds of locks without much outside of that. I was hoping for a reference to some of the more well known tales of the Thousand and One Nights like Aladdin or Sinbad but those were absent.
There was not much story but I think the room has a lot of elements to immerse you in the related culture.

As stated previously, the room revolved more around the use of locks. There was little to no use of high tech elements for the game.

Someone without the ability to smell scents (such as spices) should be advised to be in a party with someone that can use that sense.

Be noted it is in the Seminole Community Center mall near the Dillards store. We parked on the opposite side of the mall by accident and had to walk across the whole mall. If you park closer it is an easy walk! 😁

Somewhat older room. The puzzles are pretty standard, theming is OK, difficulty is easy to moderate. The weakest room here, but not bad.
Not very unique and at times the flow felt a little stop/go. Not bad, but not good either.
Very dated. It very much felt like we just did some surface level set decor.
Great GMs here, always the perfect mix of letting you work through puzzles while being supportive.

Not the best game in the world but honestly not the worst. Puzzles were different but not difficult and we had a good time here just messing around and embracing the game for what it was. Game starts very nonlinear but winds back to linear towards the end. Although some puzzles were just sort of random to be solved. Overall if you go into this game looking to just have a fun time with a low tier room you will have it :)

Evil Genie isn’t nearly as good as Bloodshed Bayou. It’s a linear room, but you get clues way earlier than needed and you don’t know what clues go with what. It’s a little scavenger hunty. The decor is okay, but not immersive. We still had fun though.

Room was fun. Theming was a little sparse but what was there was nice. Interesting use of water feature.

The staff were very friendly and I’ve heard that the other rooms here are a lot better. But the Genie room was not my favorite at all. It didn’t help that they needed to our fans in there because the room gets so hot.

This was not the worst escape room I’ve done but it’s definitely in the bottom half. The solutions weren’t always logical and that annoys me. I want some of the puzzles to be hard but not hard because you have to make an illogical jump to get there. The decor wasn’t great but it was clean and okay. Staff was friendly. We ended up needing clues to get out. Often the clue would come through and be something we already did so it got a little frustrating. Two of the four of us sat on the couch bored by the end. Overall I don’t recommend but if you’re bored it’s not a bad way to spend time.
