45 escape rooms
Not a traditional escape room. More like a collection of minigames that range from psychical challenges to puzzle like challenges. Overall a ton of fun. Every room hits a high quality and for the quantity available it’s insanely impressive. Their entire business model is super cool. You start by paying for time then can upgrade depending on if you want or need more time. Nothing new, but that’s seriously only the tip of the iceberg. You can customize your own account, view all their games and your overall progress to completing them, and can even earn “coins” and “puzzle pieces” towards merch and other prizes (getting to basically walk out with a “free shirt” is always nice). I definitely found myself getting frustrated with certain games. But it almost never was because a game malfunctioned (maybe once or twice did I feel as though the tech screwed me over). 99% of the error was made by me and my teammates. Which led to determination to beat games we struggled with and when we did complete them (by getting 3 stars) did our struggle feel entirely worth it. Huge payoff! The only thing I had a hard time with was with how they handled “difficulty” most of their rooms have very low full successes rates. I felt like 25% of the rooms showed full win rates of 1% or 0%. It makes overcoming those challenges have less power because almost all the rooms are hard (the highest win rate I saw was only 27%). Sure the win on those rooms felt satisfying but they could benefit from exclusivity. So when I beat a room with 1% or 0% I feel exclusive, smart, and proud of my achievement. It’s like getting sucked into a retro arcade machine and exploring its game library. Truly a one of kind experience. And something I couldn’t recommend more. If you enjoy immersive content. This is right up your alley!
