We attempted with just two of us. It is a BIG room and has a lot of tough puzzles. It is a very fun room with a lot of creativity! Hands down the best prison game I've done but you really benefit from more minds. It's fun and I highly recommend!

This was by far my favorite prison rooms we have done. We loved the live actor in the beginning. It was fun playing along with someone and creating a great experience. Each room and had a different fun element that definitely pushes you to stay on your game till the end of the game. I do agree with some comments that it felt like the game kept going and going and going. Some improvements can help improve 2 rooms and it wouldn’t feel as though it dragged on. We did love the escape room, and did love the amount of work that had to be done to escape.

The design was awesome! I loved in the cell block area how they made a 2nd level of cells. Loved how each room felt like we were in a legit prison trying to escape.

Didn’t understand the plot between murders and robbers. Didn’t understand who or what we were following to get out of the prison.

Prisoner in the beginning. Extremely fun to play around with! I gave myself a fake name and even traded my shoes for an item!

Well… this game is ambitious I’ll give it that. This is a massive game that I kinda wish ended after the first 30 minutes because after an interesting proof of concept beginning the game just… keeps going. And from that point on each room feels more monotonous and pointless than the last until it eventually just stops. And this 2nd half of the game just isn’t fun. The setting feels gritty and realistic not in a way that makes it stand out but in a way that makes it feel drab and boring. I’ll give it a thumbs up for pure ambition but I don’t know if I really recommend this.

Excellent room, one of the best I've done - the actor in the room was a huge addition and made it a much better experience!

this room was big! i enjoyed the beginning with the hint system. the rest was ok, i felt like some puzzles didn’t make sense. but i will say we did this room after 6 other rooms in phoenix in just two days, so our brains were probably fried by then.

  • The prison break felt more "authentic" than most of the other prison rooms we've played ...
