Gold Rush

Rating: 3.5/5 - Easy room with some fun elements Set looked great and was well decorated to fit the theme, it was immersive enough with multiple rooms to explore. The puzzles were more beginner oriented so it's an easier room. There were more padlocks than TEG's other rooms but there were still a lot of tech based triggers mixed in. One skill based challenge (similar to what you would play at a carnival) was super fun and I've yet to see it done elsewhere even after 150+ rooms. Bright flashlights were provided which were very helpful. The two staff members I interacted with were incredibly friendly and helpful. The only downside is that TEG has public rooms, but you can try booking last minute or the earliest or latest time slots. I was told elsewhere that you can also try calling to request a private game during off-peak times but I personally haven't tried it at this location. I played this solo and finished with almost 15 min left. I would recommend 1-3 enthusiasts, it will be too easy with 4. My personal ranking of TEG's games from multiple locations starting with my favorite: 1. Cosmic Crisis 2. Ruins: Forbidden Treasure 3. Playground 4. Timeliner: Train Through Time 5. Prison Break 6. The Depths 7. Special Ops: Mysterious Market 8. Gold Rush 9. The Heist 10. Mission Mars

This was the first room I got to play with The Escape Game. It was a really interesting room and very emersion. I love a room that hands you a flashlight and makes you get started. The opening puzzle was amazing and the manner which you move from one room to the next was so much fun. I'll say that I do hate puzzles that make you find things in a very broad area. It makes the puzzle very challenging, but also super easy to make mistakes... I wouldn't let that detract from.doing the room. This one was a lot of fun, just try it with a group not a duo!

This room is very immersive and the puzzles are highly interactive. Very very surprising!!
