The Smurfs

It’s a narrated room, so it’s supposed to be linear. But the way the game play is set up, you end up with a bunch of tools you didn’t need yet and end up doing things all out of order, not on purpose, but because it doesn’t set you up for the narration play correctly, and things are just laying around everywhere. Theres also a few puzzles that make no sense, and have no indication of what you were supposed to do, so be prepared to walk around aimlessly trying to figure it out.

It was cute, but it really wasn’t anything super amazing. I expected more for the price. It seemed pretty basic to your typical whimsical room that a lot of escape rooms have. Things were also falling apart, or pretty cheaply just thrown around. There were pieces of flowers just falling apart, and bundles of fake flowers just tossed around, made the room feel cheap.

It wasnt a horrible experience with the GM, but it did feel super rushed. There was no conversation, not really welcoming, didnt give us a lot of information going into the room, pretty much just pushed us in and said goodluck 😂.. we didnt even know when to walk in the room, just opened the door and we were like uhhhh do we go?! Then on the way out as soon as we escaped just got told to have a goodnight. I dont expect hour long conversations, but at leeast asking if we want a picture with the photo op wouldve been cool. Can you tell i really wanted a picture with the smurf 😂😂

I mean its smurfs, it was nostalgic. Getting to be apart of a tv show you grew up on was fun. It felt interactive since it was mainly narration play. The story was clear since you were being talked to pretty much the whole time.

I wouldn’t say it was hard because of the puzzles being complicated. It was more so hard because some puzzles just didn’t make sense. Somethings were extremely easy, and the things that werent, were either broken or didn’t make sense.

There were no physical locks, most of it was technical.

There is 1 part that required a lot of activity to complete, im sure it would be easier with more people, you wouldnt have to jump around as much. And only 2-3 players in your group would have to do it.

We played at 10 pm soo im sure parking was easier then. Its the middle of LA so plan for parking to be difficult lol. Its also a paid parking structure, so be prepared to pay for parking.

Easy to follow along and fun puzzles!

The reveal into the room was very pretty and set design was on point.

The room and the story matched up and all made sense!

Could be a few challenging parts, but was able to get everything done on time with no hints!

With 7 players, we all had fun working together on puzzles and taking turns! Would definitely be doable with 4-5 as you need all hands on deck for one particular puzzle. Great game for a family to play!

Super cute room. Nothing scary about it!

Geared towards all ages!

Highly decorated areas, although even with 7 players the rooms felt like they had large, empty areas at times.

It’s a family game, nothing too hard to follow story wise

Save for two puzzles that we gave feedback on after the game, everything was fairly easy to solve once you understood what was happening.

7 high triple digit enthusiasts took 50 minutes due to two very intuitive puzzles causing a choke point. Your average team of 4 can play just fine, and a family up to 8 will have fun.

It’s the Smurfs, you can’t get less scary than this.

There is a slight height concern in some areas. Players on the shorter side (kids) may need help reaching the play area.

Some height concerns for shorter players in a few areas due to the build of the game, a few color puzzles, one sound puzzle.
