Lab Rats

The room had many broken components. The game master repeatedly gave us clues without us asking. It feels like it was made years ago and never repaired.

Very creative and interactive room. Our Game Master, Ben, was incredible! Very cool and friendly!

So the story lacked for me but I think it was because we were pushed on time. This is a split start room but not really a true split start. Interesting. Concept that I think could be made with a little more security for each room in mind. Need a strong team for this game for sure. There are some props that need updating but overall it was a fun room and experience

A fantastic game in need of maintenance

Tech was a bit janky. Game master stepped in for support though.

When we played, a fundamental aspect of gameplay was broken, but if it had been working properly, it would’ve made for one of the most interesting games we’ve played. Even with that issue, the newbies in our group (who made up the vast majority of the group), loved the experience, and we, their more experienced hosts, still had a good time.

What made this room special is the amount of collaboration needed between the 3 groups. The set is fine, the puzzles are good, but wow, they do a great job of making you work together! I would recommend solely based off of that and the clean puzzle flow. You’ll need a good game master to help keep everyone on track too.

Another absolute banger from Escape Hour - This room is best for larger groups and requires strong communication and trust if you want to escape. We experienced this game with 6 people and that felt like it was the perfect amount, however, I can see much larger groups participating in this room and still enjoying themselves. Puzzles are solid, and the environment is immersive.

This game plays well with a larger group, even of experienced players. It’s old school fun and makes the typical split cell mechanic feel fresh.
