Will To Escape - Orlando

  • Escape room

Mark as done to rate

The hidden door to an Egyptian tomb was unearthed during a top secret excavation project. We’ve learned the tomb is a gateway to a ancient curse that will unleash darkness upon the world if released. To protect humanity, a clandestine military organization built a device that deploys a barrier around the gate. The device is the only thing that protects the world from the powers that lie beyond this realm. But, the device can’t hold. With every passing minute, the device grows weaker as the curse becomes stronger. You and your team are our last hope! You must crack the code, enter the tomb, and finally put an end to the curse. Good luck explorers. The world is counting on you!

I think this room might have been decent when it first opened, but it may need a refresh. Multiple puzzles were broken when we played, which negatively impacted our experience. Given the extremely high level of quality of Cinema 7 and Disappearance, The Gate was just sub-par. The story of the room is fine and there was one set piece aspect that I really thought was cool (I won’t elaborate as I don’t wish to spoil anything), but all in all I just can’t recommend this room.

The environment is cool, but if you have allergies, asthma, or breathing difficulties, I suggest bringing a mask to ensure you can focus without distraction

Gameplay

Some puzzles were a bit overcomplicated. Most of the room you only have one or two puzzles active at a time, breaking you can't divide to work on different things or try something and come back to it

Undecided on this one. Didn't love it / didn't hate it. Parts were neat and creative, others didn't grab us. Regardless, GM Miles did a great job ensuring that we stayed on task and experienced it through to the end.

This room was okay and nothing too amazing. However, I would recommend Disappearance at this location. It was one of the best escape rooms I have done.

Gameplay

The beginning was awkward and had weird puzzles at times that didn’t feel straightforward.

Atmosphere

Not anything crazy or different but looked great for what needed to be accomplished.

Customer service
Particularly interesting or different

No

Gameplay wise, there was nothing interesting but I had never seen atmosphere being displayed on the ground which made it feel more immersive. (Trying not to spoil too much) This is something Will to escape has done in their other room, disappearance. Making the ground β€˜textured’ made it feel more real.
