Excellent game from top to bottom - the theme, the tech, the puzzles, the intro - all incredible! Non-linear and a great choice for anyone who likes immersive rooms with great tech and great puzzles - the game master was super helpful and kind as well

Riley our GM was excellent. The room was immersive and well designed. Had lots of fun!
Good design. Lots of puzzles that were challenging without being impossible
Super immersive. One of my favorite sets Iβve been to
Riley was the gm and she was awesome! Great job introducing the premise and well timed pushes in the right direction

Fairly spacious rooms, lots of walking around them to check and a bit of crawling needed
Some crawling is needed by one player and some things are near/on the floor. Colors and sounds are used to solve puzzles

This room is so much fun! You are immediately transported to the scene they want to set. The interactive elements are very well done and engaging. Sam was the best GM, she was the 6th member of our team. Do not miss this experience

Yes, yes, yes! (This could have been my full review) Just go and play it as soon as you can, especially if you love rooms with a lot of puzzles. This was one of the rooms I was most looking forward to on our US trip, and it's always a bit scary to be hyped for something, as it's hard to meet those expectations. 40 Thieves met all my expectations, and so much more. This was my wives room #200, and we couldn't have been happier. From the completely fantastic opening, and throughout the whole game, this one just keeps on giving. This is a puzzle lovers dream come true, and there was a lot to do at all times. We had fantastic flow, and ended up escaping in 46 minutes without any hints. I love games that flow well, and here it was just perfect. I cannot find a single thing I didn't like about the room, and this will be in my favorites for a long time to come. 100% recommend that you travel to play this game.

This room is one of my top 5 rooms ever done. The puzzles were unique and there was a lot of things to do in the room which made it more fun. My team escaped with 5 seconds left which was fun!

This was such a cool room! From the moment you walk in you immediately feel immersed in an old school Aladdin bazaar. The flow of the room is thoughtful and we (our family of four with two littles) all enjoyed it! Casey was a great game master as well!

40 Thieves is a masterclass in escape room design. From the minute I walked in, I felt like I was about to experience something incredible. And I did. From the intro βcut sceneβ to the interactions with the shopkeepers to the collaborative puzzles that get your party to look around the premises and communicate, they did such a good job with everything. I could see why this room earned its spot in the TERPECA awards. This is worth the drive if youβre coming from LA like we were. I would also recommend getting a bigger group because there are so many puzzles to do!
βSpeaking of beautiful, the set is OUT OF THIS WORLD!β
