Star Trek: Quantum Filament

Fun room! I’ve been a big fan of Star Trek for years and been to this location multiple times and seen that they have this room. Finally did it. Not as challenging as other rooms in the same venue but still fun. Little to no Star Trek knowledge required but the theming is more fun if you do enjoy Star Trek.

This felt exactly like stepping into the Star Trek universe!! The theming was completely immersive, and the story flowed very well.

The room was all technology-based with no traditional locks. Some of the key pads weren't as responsive, but overall an easier room with interesting design and theming.

Anyone who is a fan of Star Trek, would definitely love this room. I am someone who has never seen the movies, so for me, it just felt like a technologically advanced room. I would say the puzzles were good, but I think escapology offers better rooms for people who are looking for more of a challenge. Not to say this room is bad, I just think it is only worth it if you are a fan of the Star Trek Universe. I was not a fan of the no lock style room, but that may just be a personal preference. I am definitely more of a fan of classic escape rooms.

Puzzle Quality: 15/20 Looks/Theme: 13/15 GameMaster Rating: 9/10 Operation Fluidity: 5/5 Combined Rating: 42/50 Overall Difficulty: 3.5/10 Quick Notes: - Multiple rooms, small in size. - Very immersive, electronic puzzles. CATEGORIES EXPLAINED IN MORE DETAIL BELOW: Puzzle Quality - How intuitive, logical, and unique the puzzles were. How well do the puzzles fit the theme? Looks/Theme - How much effort, time, and money went into making an immersive and unique atmosphere. GameMaster Rating - How attentive and helpful was the game master? Were the hints given in a timely manner and were they quality hints that helped but did not give you the solution too directly? Operation Fluidity - Was the game reset properly? Was it clean inside the room? Were the code entry and solution methods working properly as intended? Overall Difficulty - This is fairly subjective but is mostly correlated to how many total puzzles and how time consuming they each are compared against the 60 minute time limit that almost all rooms have. Combined Rating - Simply a total tally out of 50 of the four main categories. (Puzzle Quality and Looks/Theme are weighted a little more because they are the most important parts of having a good experience). The higher the number, the better the room! Just remember that a 5/10 or 7.5/15 or a 25/50 combined rating is an AVERAGE rating (for some reason in most people’s heads, a 5/10 is a below average or bad rating). So if a room has a combined rating of above 25, then it is a quality room and a good experience that I would recommend! It has to be a really well done room to score above a 35.

The Star Trek graphic design is on point and the tasks you have to perform on the ship feel suitably sci-fi-esque. A mixture of logic and physical puzzles which often require communication as information is located on opposite sides of the room. My only real complaint is that it ends rather suddenly. I would have liked a proper finale. It’s fine, but not exceptional.

This one was fun- no locks and a lot of tech, as you would expect aboard a space ship. Very linear and you were often guided as to what you have to do next. Better for a small group although there’s lots of space- just not a lot to do at the same time.

Cool room! Pretty nice addition to the Escapology catalog. Nice and high tech. Puzzles were pretty nifty, with the exception of a few “what do we do with this” moments. I had fun and if you’re looking for a high tech space room, this is it!

Def. Needs more beta, room crashed, poor lighting led to hard puzzles. Seemed untested. And rebooting room killed ambiance, of what could have been great trademark experience.

If you love Star Trek this game is for you.
