Curse Of The Kraken’s Eye

The theme and design of this room was top notch. We wanted to enjoy this room a lot more, but some of the puzzles left us unclear as to what to do and/or why certain solutions were considered not correct and our GM went silent on us at times so there were some frustrating moments. That said, the room was still fun and you could do a lot worse. We especially liked the 2 puzzles that required teamwork and skillful dexterity to complete.

Very good game. Excellent set construction. Some good puzzles, some that were a bit disconnected, and required help from the GM to make certain connections. But overall, it was a fun game to play.

Another high quality game from Gatlins! So much quality went into the design. For me the puzzles were less logic driven and stronger team based. Also the room was pretty dim most of the time. There was 1 tiny lantern to share that wasn’t working right so we used our phones instead. Still had fun, just not my personal favorite.

Like all the games at Gatlin’s Escape Games, the set for this room was fantastic. It felt like you were on an actual pirate ship and progressing through its huge interior. The set design was strong, the story was okay, and the puzzle flow was a little bit rough. Of the 3 at this location that we played, this room was our least favorite. It may also have something to do with the fact our GM was constantly breaking immersion with random comments- he was very friendly, I just got the impression he was bored and wanted to chat. Unfortunately, escape rooms aren’t conducive to that kind of constant chatter… The intro projection feature was really cool and we loved the ropes puzzle. We also had fun with their “divorce” puzzle, it did require a decent amount of teamwork, but it was enjoyable! We were led to believe there would be a lot of communication puzzles in this room, but didn’t really find that to be the case. Parts of this room are probably easier with a team of 4, but it was totally doable with 2 with time to spare! We did feel that there was a lot of searching in all 3 rooms, but it was more difficult searching in this room, which I wasn’t personally a fan of .There were a couple broken props in the room, including some that were pivotal to completing a puzzle. This threw us off for a while, until we asked the GM if it was broken and he said yes… hopefully they fix that soon. There were also a few puzzles that had me thinking “why??,” their signposting being minimal and not enough direction provided. I think there were about 4 puzzles that had some mechanic that wasn’t well thought out. If the company was open to feedback, I’d love to see what they could continue to do with this room because the set has it all.

Great game. Fun, immersive, and team building.

Love love loved this game! Awesome puzzles, tech galore, and a wicked set. This was definitely an experience!

A fun and semi challenging pirate game. Stellar set and great service. Besides being a common theme this pirate game is better than most! Enjoyed the experience and theatrics!

The puzzles were fun and for the most part made perfect sense in the moment, the atmosphere was great and the theming was on point! There weren’t a lot of flashy parts but when it wowed it really wowed. There are some issues that we had but in the grand scheme of things we dismissed most of them as being nit picky.

This is a very fun room. The details are amazing. There are a few puzzles that I haven’t seen before. The game master there was wonderful. He asked before we started if we wanted him to “nudge” us if we were getting too far off. He was able to do that without giving anything away.

Josh absolutely made our time here. We had a few game malfunctions in our first in second rooms so to apologize they gave us two free games and mini golf. Overall the rooms were great and our guides Desi and Ellis were excellent. Definitely higher quality and service than the Gatlinburg location! :)
