15 escape rooms
We picked this room especially for our almost-7-year-olds first “real” escape room experience and it was a good choice for that purpose. LOTS - and I mean lots! - of scavenging for clues and placing them in designated baskets had to be done before we could even think about solving a puzzle. There were only a few puzzles in the room, which we knew going in, but they definitely needed adults to solve and in my opinion relied a bit too heavily on prior knowledge. In-room game master isn’t my favorite usually, but was great in this instance since we were playing with a young kid and they were very friendly and only offered assistance when asked. I think seasoned escape room fans would be underwhelmed by this room, but it worked great for our purposes and our kiddo was so excited when we escaped in the nick of time!
Gameplay
Not your typical escape room, lots of searching for clues and sorting them into designated baskets. We needed game master assistance to figure out how to proceed a few times because the flow wasn’t particularly intuitive
Atmosphere
Customer service
We weren’t sure how we’d feel about having the game master present in the room, but it worked well for this game. Everyone we interacted with was great.

We chose this for our 6 year olds first “real” escape room and it was a good choice - lots of clues for him to hunt for and help sort. The puzzles definitely needed adults to solve though.
