Mark as done to rate

For years, paranormal hunters have tried to eradicate the unearthly existence of the vampire. You have joined the hunt and now stand in the shadow of Bran Castle, home of The Last Vampire. Find the fiend responsible for so much death, and end his dark domain once and for all. Darkness falls in 60 minutes…hurry! For centuries, the poor town of Berchtesgaden, Bavaria has been terrorized by Astaroth, the Last Known Vampire. Benjamin Van Calson, the bravest Vampire Hunter in all the land, was the town’s only hope at destroying this bloody-thirsty villain. However, Benjamin met his demise at the hands of Astaroth in 1809 and his stake is said to be on display within the walls of Bran Castle, the Vampire’s evil lair. It is now the fall of 1821 and the little town of Berchtesgaden’s population is shrinking by the day, as The Vampire picks them off one by one for his nightly feast. With hope dwindling, they have summoned you, Bavaria’s smartest paranormal hunters, to help infiltrate Bran Castle and destroy the Vampire forever. It is your mission, with the aid of the servants forever trapped inside, to find Astaroth’s four weaknesses and retrieve Benjamin’s beloved stake in order to destroy this creature forever and save the town from extinction. Night falls in 60 minutes and Astaroth will awaken for his next feeding! Hurry!**

Staff was excellent and Fun! This was a great room and definitely worth the trip. Theming was great, props were great. Set was beautiful. Progressive lighting was a blessing and a curse. Thematically fun but I felt like I didn't have control of the puzzle. One cabinet was partially open yet not and it was confusing. Fantastic room though, well thought out and fun. Loved the effects!!!

Hi Amy and Cam, Thank you for your kind words! I understand how the cabinet being partially open was confusing. We apologize that this threw you off, and my team and I will adjust the prop so it does not confuse more players in the future. We are happy you enjoyed the room and the effects! We look forward to hosting you again in the future!

Wow. Rooms like this are WHY you play escape rooms and make a convincing case that escape rooms (well designed ones at least) provide peak immersion entertainment. Absolutely loved this room. My wife and I found it moderate difficulty and more than able to do with 2 experienced players. There was one hassle of a puzzle that took a lot of time but that aside the puzzles flow naturally and added to the theme and story of the room (along with the excellent soundtrack) all culminating to one of the best ending experiences I’ve had playing an Escape room yet. As of this review, I’ve played about 75 games and this is locked in at my top 10. This room is the crown of Encrypted Escape and A MUST PLAY at this venue.

This is a long overdue review. My spouse and I did this room 1-2 years ago and loved it. We successfully escaped as a duo with zero hints, but we definitely felt like we were racing against the clock the entire time. There were a LOT of puzzles! I think it'd be a great room for larger groups, since there's plenty of space and parallel puzzling. The space is immersive and atmospheric, with interesting and thematic puzzles. Highly recommend provided you're ok with some tension and the occasional surprise! The owner was there when we went, and they and the game master were kind enough to talk with us about the rooms after we finished. They were super nice and obviously love what they do. I'm sad we didn't get to play the biker room before it closed, but we're excited to try the new room they're opening in 2025.

They nailed the spooky atmosphere. Loved their use of lighting: it not only added to the mood, but helped provide some guidance in a large space that's full of puzzles.

Parallel puzzling and a large physical space makes this a great choice for larger teams. The quantity of puzzles will add a challenge for smaller groups, but we escaped as a pair so it's definitely doable!

One person will need to stoop down low or crawl to enter into a smallish space.

Not difficult to find, but not "storefront in a strip mall" easy.

You might find free street parking nearby. There's also an inexpensive paid shopping plaza surface lot about two blocks away.

Sick room!! Had great theming, awesome puzzles and pretty good tech. We did this with two (which is tricky) but we were able to complete it with maybe 2 hints. For my anxious friends, there were some tense moments with mild jump scares, but nothing too terrible. The GM was great and answered my questions about the scare level because I was nervous. I highly recommend!

The aesthetic, the complications to setup the mechanics to run and reset everything to prepare for the next group- omg. Makes you wish you came in an all garlic costume!

Gameplay

Certain places were lighted properly when necessary and it was reasonably intuitive if you had to feel through the dark.

Overall rating - 9.1/10 Puzzles - 9 Gameplay - 9 Atmosphere - 9 Experience - 10 For a breakdown of my weighted rating system you can refer to my bio I'll be honest, I'm reviewing this a while after doing the room so my memory is not perfect. But I know we had a great time in this room. I can confidently say it's good because there really isn't a bad room at encrypted. Even their first room is great. The puzzles and theme were fun.

The Last Vampire is incredible! For a team who actively avoids anything spooky - we loved this experience! A fantastic amount of jump scares, thrills, and exhilaration. Our favorite feature was the light 💡 wow if more rooms adopted this, that would be something.

Excellent spooky game 🩸 So much is done right in this room - props, puzzles, reveals, the list goes on and on…

Top notch set design! The special effects were beyond impressive and immersive. To go from where you started to where you finish is - chefs kiss!

This room was spooky but super fun! Really enjoyed this one and it was pretty difficult as it took a group of 4 of us who are all very experienced in escape rooms longer then we thought it would have. But we did end being 9th place on the weekly leaderboard. You may not escape this one so be prepared but if you do the ending has a cool surprise!
