Cyber Attack

Cyber Attack was the first of four games we played in one day at Illuminati Escape, and what a solid start it was. From the moment you enter their waiting area, you’re immersed in their universe, clocks showing times of their game locations, a global mission map, and ambient music that sets the tone beautifully (reminiscent of Escape Rush in Belgium). But what truly sets Illuminati Escape apart is something extremely rare in the escape room world: if you play multiple rooms in a single day, the same Game Master stays with you across all games. This is not a coincidence, the owner intentionally encourages this setup to create a continuous, personalized experience. In our case, Keira was our GM, and she was warm, attentive, and enthusiastic throughout all four rooms, truly a standout. Cyber Attack itself has no padlocks and leans into a puzzle heavy, story-driven experience. The room flows well, with a strong narrative and a few clever, unique puzzles that kept us engaged throughout. We played as a group of 3, and that felt just right. We escaped with nearly 10 minutes to spare and enjoyed a nice debrief, photo moment, and even got to take a printed group photo and a small souvenir, a classy, thoughtful touch that adds to the overall experience. This room is highly recommended, especially for puzzle lovers and teams who enjoy smooth flow and immersive storytelling. 4 players max recommended, especially if all are experienced.

This was the third room I played at Illuminati Escape after Alien Grill and Jackpot. Like Jackpot, I think it’s a very solid escape room at an overall highly recommendable venue. However, out of the 3 rooms played there so far, this was my least favorite one as I liked the settings, type/variety of puzzles and flow better at the other two. Especially the first part in Cyber Attack is a very classic Escape Room. The ending was a bit underwhelming, we somehow expected a more exciting effect or exit. To sum up: solid escape room. If you’re in Berlin longer and already played the other rooms, it’s definitely a good and entertaining option. Not in my top rooms of Berlin though.

"Cyber Attack" at Illuminati Escape Berlin is a high-energy, tech-driven escape room experience that plunges players into the heart of a digital crisis. The room's design is sleek and futuristic, filled with high-tech gadgets and immersive visual effects that create an authentic cyberpunk atmosphere. The puzzles are innovative and varied, requiring players to think like hackers as they decode messages, manipulate technology, and solve intricate logic challenges. The storyline is intense and fast-paced, with a ticking clock that adds to the urgency and excitement. The difficulty level is well-balanced, offering a rewarding challenge for both novices and experienced players. The game masters are supportive and provide timely hints to ensure the game flows smoothly. Overall, "Cyber Attack" is a thrilling escape room that combines cutting-edge technology with clever puzzles and a gripping narrative. Highly recommended for those seeking a modern and adrenaline-fueled escape room adventure.

Positively surprised, we did not think we would like the room that much based on the description on the website
