Budapest Express

OK game, not my top recommendation for kids. The bar/lounge area is VERY cool and worth going to, especially for a date night. But if you're a family, I'd recommend skipping this, particularly the Budapest room. Many of the puzzles relied on reading and written logic, so it wasn't particularly a good fit for younger kids - not a ton of physical games or clues for them to help with. It definitely has more of a "downtown" corporate vibe to it, but certainly not a bad experience. Would be worth coming back for a $$$ date night.

Set design was unique and immersive, but progression was at times confusing. This room was also more of a "whodunit" murder mystery puzzle than escape room. And unfortunately our room wasn't entirely reset correctly. Nor did we get timely clues - often waiting several minutes for help

Cool room design, and fun Clue-like puzzles (especially at the end)! It was surprisingly easy for our group of some experienced and some young players - personally, if you have any experience with (minor spoilers) Morse Code, hidden clues, or murder mysteries, it should be pretty simple. The last puzzle takes up most of the room, and might not be for people looking for traditional escape room puzzles, but our group had a lot of fun! Escapology in general is a great environment with helpful gamemasters.

More of a murder mystery than an escape room, so for that reason, I wasn’t as impressed with this one. Collecting clues to figure out “whodunnit”. Fun, but don’t go into it expecting your typical escape room.

The set was well done and immersive (for the most part), but at some points it felt like it was trying to hard to be challenging and not hard enough to be engaging. My party of 3 escape room enthusiasts were not huge fans. Not terrible, but not great.

Loved the theme and set design. Like some other games, we were frustrated trying to figure out morse code on an audio feed that was tricky to hear and had to run all the way through before restarting. Key item/clue was missing from the room as a former group had broken part of the item off. GM's apparently knew this and didn't tell us until AFTER the game was finished. Luckily, we were able to escape by working through final clue multiple times guessing the final number to solve it.

Set design was pretty solid, almost felt like you were in a train car including the monitors acting as windows. Really good idea. Puzzles were ok, staff was great as usual.

A simple, yet fun linear room that makes you feel like you're actually on a moving train. Mostly traditional locks and a room you can do with 4 or 5 people, veterans and newbies alike. You must be cautious of where you grab items from in the room as their location is key to solve two or so puzzles.

Really fun design and fun puzzles!
