Mark as done to rate

The great Sherlock Holmes has gone missing! His stalwart partner, Dr. Watson, suspects that a member of the London aristocracy is to blame. The four aristocrats that recently inquired into the duo's services all share the same accountant... a detail Watson looks to investigate! While Watson works with police to track Holmes down, you have been sent by Sherlock's brother to sniff out any involvement from the accountant. Upon entering the office, you immediately detect a carefully calibrated ruse and find a trail of breadcrumbs left by Sherlock himself! You have a 60 minute window while the accountant is out of office. You’ll have to search his documents, piece together the shady plot, and pinpoint your suspects before he returns to catch you snooping!

38 escape rooms

I definitely don’t recommend this escape room. If you’re looking to waste some money there are definitely better places around the area. Play at your own risk.

Gameplay

This was my first escape room that I ever did, and even then it was pretty terrible.

Atmosphere

It’s not immersive at all. You’re trying to escape from a single room that is basically just really tall cubical walls.

Customer service

The staff was nice.

Particularly interesting or different

No

This was easily the most boring and least interesting game I’ve ever done.

Story

The story was lacking and boring.

Difficulty

Medium

It’s pretty easy except the parts that make literally no sense and you just have to guess how it’s solved.

Game tech

Neither?

Ideal number of players

3

I guess like 2-3 because that’s about all that would fit in the room.

Scary

Not scary

Not scary at all. It’s like “hey I have some time to kill before I have to go do something. Why not.

Minimum age

12

It doesn’t really matter. There’s no real technical aspect of the game.

Was anything broken?

No

Not really anything in there to break

Live actors

No

Physically active

Not at all

There’s no room to be physically active

Accessibility

I guess pretty accessible. There’s only one room and no step ups.

Easy to find location

Yes

It’s right outside the mall

Parking

Easy

It’s a huge mall parking lot

23 escape rooms

This is one we did forever ago at the mall. I remember, as many people have said, the noise from the other rooms. Also the room was NOT immersive. Some of the puzzles were fun, but when you have wallpaper of a bookshelf instead of a bookshelf, you know you're in canned, not so great territory. It was a fun diversion, but there are better ones in town. Ok way to burn an hour.

Particularly interesting or different

No

It's a canned set - it is the same sherlock's library you will find at any of the All In locations

Story

The concept for the story was good and the overall play was ok, just wish it had been taken two levels up.

Difficulty

Medium

We escaped in pretty good time with 4 people

Was anything broken?

Yes

The desk was hella beat up and the magnets in the chess pieces weren't great

Live actors

No

Physically active

Not at all

Accessibility

Mobility and hearing should have no problem, vision would be tough because there is a lot of reading. Color blindness probably not an issue

Easy to find location

Yes
