It all looked like a good idea for easy money, they had all the information they needed and even the keys to the house from the security company that the father of one of the party ran! A helpless, blind man would not be much of a barrier between them and the money. But the reality became a pure nightmare. Because they didn't know that the "helpless" blind man was a US Army Special Forces veteran who always carried with him the scars and perversion of the Iraq war in 1991. And the huge isolated house of 230 square meters, was his own theater of operations. . This house in this infamous neighborhood held more secrets than they expected and ended up becoming a battlefield. Will the invaders survive a deadly escape game?

This is for sure one of my all time favorite escape room. I felt completely immersed in the story and set. The suspense build throughout this room was unlike anything I’ve experienced before. It truly felt like I was in the story.

A highlight of our Greece trip. Stood out as an experience like no other. Less of an escape room due to how realistic it felt. Never let up on the suspense!! It continued to build while our team continuously mentioned how much fun this was!!

This was a phenomenal experience! It was a great blend of scary, fun, and theatrics. The game play was fantastic, and allowed you to play through the storyline while interacting with the set. I am so impressed and think this game deserves all of the hype it gets, and then some!

I still tell stories about this escape room to my friends a year later. It was truly immersive, insane horror, and extreme commitment to the bit.

8/10 First it needs to be said, this is not an escape room. This is an experience. This will be discussed before entering the building, so keep this in mind. Now with that being said, there aren’t really puzzles to solve and you will be told what and where to go by a handheld radio the entire time you play. This is the only downside of this room. Don’t Take A Breath strengths lie in its unbelievable production, atmosphere, light programming, sound design, acting, and sheer size of the space. Sometimes this room feels real, that’s how immersed you will be. It’s hard not to love this room. Its ratings and TERPECA rankings are for a reason.

My bf and I arrived to our 2nd game of our Athens’ trip. There were two doors. The correct door was beside a garage door. We were allowed to use the restroom prior to the game, which we appreciated. We were greeted in a comical manner, and then experienced an action-packed story. I ran exceptionally fast during a portion that I predicted I might get captured. Unfortunately and expectedly, I missed a portion of the experience. If you do not want to miss anything, consider not fleeing exceptionally fast. Although we missed a brief interaction, this did not negatively impact our experience. Instead, we appreciate that they were able to accommodate and improvise for us. Even though they were cautious not to chase us when we were on stairs or set up unnecessary obstacles, I accidentally tore my shirt on a door knob while running. They responded empathetically and considerately. :)) We really feel that they were 1,000% passionate about what they do. Since they were having a great time, their enjoyment spilled over to us, the customers. Usually when I have a room that I most look forward to on a trip, it tends to fall lower on my favorites than anticipated. This room is an exception. I most looked forward to this room, and they exceeded my expectations. This is my bf’s and my new favorite game. We hope to return for their future games.

Loved loved this experience. Tense and a little scary, but more adventure and fun then anything. The owner had us cracking up. Set design, sound design, and light design were excellent and the space was a blast to move around.

Ein fantastisches Spiel. Ich habe den Film schon geliebt. Man fΓΌhlt sich ganze zwei Stunden lang in diesen zurΓΌckversetzt. Es ist beeindruckend, was hier fΓΌr ein immersives Erlebnis geschaffen wurde. Kulisse + RΓ€tsel und Schauspieleinsatz sind exzellent. Ich habe dieses Spiel bereits zweimal spielen kΓΆnnen und wΓΌrde es jederzeit wieder machen. Eines der besten Spiele in Athen.
