This game included some physical challenges that I wish had been made more clear in the booking. While I didn’t particularly enjoy the puzzles much, the design of the room was immersive and I could see how someone would enjoy it.

This is was the most technologically advanced rooms we’ve done. The end is very climatic . Some of the puzzles were harder

Overall rating - 9.0/10 Puzzles - 9 Gameplay - 8.5 Atmosphere - 9 Experience - 10 For a breakdown of my weighted rating system you can refer to my bio. Very fun room with great set design. The only thing I'd mention is this room is not handicap accessible. I would not consider it a spoiler because it says it on the website but there is crawling and tight spaces. We thought the puzzles and flow of the room was great, though some of the puzzles it was difficult to tell when you had completed them and something had opened.

We loved the styling of the room. We liked our GM. But our GM had only been there for 4 days and had only done this room once…it wasn’t great. Parts malfunctioned and took multiple tries, we worked on other parts/solutions thinking we were wrong, when really we just had to use significantly more force than we expected. The GM sent clues telling us to stop working on things that we needed to be working on, and overall there were just a lot of bad directions, which isn't the fault of the GM, they had no experience with this room. One part was broken and we spent 15 minutes and multiple clues, but the clues we were given were all things we’d already solved. Turns out it just needed to be unlocked by the GM manually. There were several components to this room that needed to be manually handled by the GM, which is new to me. Understandably, the GM couldn’t answer questions about the room. This is also the first time anyone has popped in during the story video and told us that looking around will be penalized, so that was interesting. The staff here wasn't exactly unfriendly, they were just unhelpful. When we walked in (5 minutes before our room time, with waivers already completed) we were told we were late, and nothing else. It was jokingly, but still, odd to have no other information. After this room we had Pharaoh, but mentioned the issues to who is presumably the GM. He just said, essentially, oh well, that happens, you'll like the next one more. And then everyone walked away until the GM for our next game came out a few minutes later. Pharaoh is cool, and this room is too, but the staff needs to be familiar with the rooms and be a little kinder. It's odd to me that they know there are issues with that room and don't prep the GMs, fix it, offer to make it right, give time back for time wasted on broken elements, etc.
Staff was new and didn’t know the room, staff also told us we’d be penalized for looking around during the video, but didn’t say so before the video started.

Really unique room with cool elements and use of space.

Medical stuff and gore, so if you’re sensitive to that it goes up. For me this was more than scary, my partner says spooky.
Yes
We lost 15 minutes to a broken part, several things didn’t work well and needed a lot of force, but the GM didn’t tell us that so we wasted time working on alternatives thinking we had the answers wrong. The GM had to manually do a lot of the controls since they didn’t work, but was new so they missed a few for a while.

Steep spiral stairs and crawling required
Not, it’s dark and cramped. Also, a whole section has low ceilings, so you hit your head a lot if you’re not careful. It’s padded though; so it didn’t hurt.

It’s alive! It’s aliiiiiiiiiive! Frankenstein: The Awakening definitely was a lively game! Excellent use of space that felt immersive and creepy, though not necessarily scary (which is good for us cowards!) Uncovering how to awaken the titular scientist’s monster was exciting, though also unnerving at times. The puzzles were on the harder side, although they were fair for the most part. They were also intuitive and smart. There is an exception with one puzzle making no sense and being such a logic leap that we were upset we wanted 2 out of 3 hints trying to get past it. While multiple floors make the space bigger, it does also mean people who can’t traverse the narrow staircase will completely miss out on more than half the room. That said, it works to double the size of the room for anyone who can make the trek up. There is a clever way to ensure everyone can see the big WOW moment no matter where they are. Definitely had better flow than the Pharaoh’s Chamber room in the same location. Don’t miss out on this monstrously fun experience if you’re near Murfreesboro or Nashville!

Spooky, because think of the source material. There are some creepy portions, but no downright jump scares

Get ready to climb up and down a mandatory staircase and have someone crawl through a passageway
Basically inaccessible for people with mobility issues who can’t climb stairs. One person had to crawl around. There are also color puzzles in a dimly lit area

Game masters make everything and the game master we had was not helpful. The game masters we've had will nudge us along if they see we're genuinely stuck but on the right path. The game master we had here did not do anything outside of strictly staying to the 3 clues and "Don't touch that" but aside from that, the room itself was amazing

We played in 2021, and were super excited to check this room out after getting several recommendations. We were incredibly disappointed, and thought that the room required illogical leaps (a quality we hate more than anything in a room). I hope the room has been improved since we played, but I still think the reviews over-hype this location. We met the owner who was very defensive of the room, and didn't seem receptive to feedback.
