The set and props were amazing. I found the story and overall goal lacking. We were told why we wanted to get into the room but there was no clear through line (in my opinion) of what we were supposed to do in the course of the room. There were some interesting puzzles but I found a lot of them frustrating. Not my cup of tea.

This room is pretty difficult and we did not escape. I would, however, go back to re do it! I think it would be better to have a theme of people (maybe 3-4) instead of 2. The theming was cool and the puzzles were cool too! There were no jump scares for any of my fellow anxious friends

Simply the best escape room that my group has ever done, the room that we judge all other rooms by, it's impossible not to come out of this room talking about every major prop, puzzle or experience. If you get the chance, go into the room. You'll know the one. The final room and series of puzzles felt weak compared to the rest of it all, but only in that we were riding such a high from everything before that! Our group got one of the all time high scores for this room which felt amazing, too! Final rating: 10/10

People who are scared of spiders, tight spaces, isolation or dark rooms may want to consider bringing a close friend for this game.

Great game, they do an awesome job at mass escape. And what’s better than getting hints from a talking brain? Unique puzzles that were challenging but fun

The Eckstein Experiment is the crown jewel of Mass Escapes, a company with 2 other incredible games. I would highly recommend this company and it is worth traveling outside of Boston to go to (even if it is quite the trek).
Gameplay
Mass Escape has consistently strong gameplay and this is no exception. Some great tactile solves with some uncommon solutions.
Atmosphere
While the beginning is more minimal, the game transitions into a variety of beautiful steampunk spaces
Customer service
The workers are incredible and the owners are very accommodating.

There are some puzzles in this game I have not seen anywhere else. In addition, this game has a highly unique aesthetic.

“If you love that supernatural Dr. Frankenstein type of vibe, this is the room for you!“

“Have a weak spot for steampunk sets... this was one of our favorites. It was tactile and beautiful.“
