Permanently Closed - “Nitr0,” heard the name? If you haven’t, you’re about to learn. In fact, all of America might soon find it plastered across their TV screens. Nitr0 is the world’s greatest hacker, he’s successfully completed over 300 cyber crimes, yet the FBI doesn’t have any leads to his identity. Early this morning a video was received at FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C. Nitr0 informed the Bureau of his plan to release a virus that will drain 100 million United States bank accounts of over $75 billion. You are FBI Agent Alex Vargas, a fresh face in the Cyber Crime Unit. Fueled by optimism and a need for success, you determine that taking down Nitr0 would be the best way to climb the ladder to the top. You’ve received an anonymous lead, apparently, Nitr0 has been tracked to an apartment in Cambridge. It’s a long shot, but it’s the only thing you’ve got. You arrive outside and discover what looks to be an average American college apartment. A powerful clack comes from the door, it’s been sealed shut. The television turns on and Nitr0 himself appears on the screen. He tells you that he was the one who tipped you off about the location, he’s setting you up and in one hour the FBI will trace everything back to you in this apartment. The realization is setting in, the biggest virtual heist in history is about to be pinned on you. You know that Nitr0 always provides a kill code for every crime in case things go awry. You must find that code, kill the program and escape within the hour. So you don’t take the fall for the biggest crime in American history.

21 escape rooms

By far, one of the weakest and most embarrassing escape rooms I’ve ever played. This poor thing is ROUGH to say the least, and it’s a little shameful that they don’t spend any time trying to touch it up or fix any of the broken stuff that people have destroyed over the years. One of our puzzles towards the end just straight up, broke and a couple of employees had to come into the room and fix it in front of us for a while. One of the most glaring things that I noticed was the fact There is a literal number puzzle in the room where you need to identify different numbers. It’s incredibly negligent that they left the stickers on an IKEA cabinet that have numbers on them for the different parts of the cabinet. No one bothered to peel those off, really? There’s an utter lack of caring for this room, to the point where it should just be hollowed out and made into something else at this point. There was also a “puzzle”at the end that required very old knowledge of something that young people just don’t know. I don’t want to spoil it, but I thought it was a hilariously anti-climatic ending. It’s not even technically a puzzle at the end.. just busy work. Come on. 😂

This is one of Escapology’s older rooms but we don’t have it at my local one so I was excited to check it off the list. It’s definitely not as advanced as some of the new rooms or as overly decorated but it’s still fun, uses unique puzzles and kept us worried we might not finish! Luckily, we escaped and had a lot of fun along the way. We did use all 3 free clues.

There were a couple of decent puzzles but I wasn’t wowed by any of them. I think one didn’t work smoothly for us, which took a bit away from it all. Wish it had a more detailed set in some way.

Gameplay was pretty linear.
