The Edison Escape Room

This room is definitely for thinkers and observers, and requires stamina! The puzzles were complex and really enjoyable. Multiple rooms, intricate pressure-plate puzzles, and locks. Overall LOVED this room, even though we got fatigued when we realized there was ANOTHER puzzle to keep doing. Played with 4 adults and 4 young kids -- and would recommend a minimum of 4 actively participating adults to ensure steady progress gets made. This is the ultimate test of effective teamwork!

There is so much to do in this room, and there are some very clever and challenging puzzles. We were constantly oohing and aahing about some of the delightful details. We did it with a group of 4 enthusiast, and everyone was constantly engaged, less experienced group might want 5 or 6 brains. A great experience!

Edison Room might be my favorite escape room in the world. So thoughtfully designed in terms of interactions and encouraging collaboration within large groups, such variety in experiences. There's so much to do and there are these moments that are so breathtakingly delightful no matter what age or what level of escape room experience you have.

Very high tech, cool use of effects with a very active and unique second portion

WOW room. Never experienced a room like this with the tech and the detail. Loved it and was also very challenging. It was surprisingly physical at the end. Also the longest room we have played. We appreciated that we could play it through to experience it all. Highly recommend this room if you’re in the city.

Rating: 4.5/5 I really liked this room but I feel it has been a bit overhyped, there were a few things I wasn't a fan of. Maybe it's because it's been around for so long. However, I do understand why so many people like this room as it's innovative and tech heavy. Pros: -Excellent use of technology and lighting -Cool puzzle mechanics that I've never seen before -Video game inspired elements built into the room -Lots of teamwork required -Some big reveals and "wow" moments -Fun puzzles requiring physical movements -No number pads or number puzzles -Barely any locks, the ones that were there fit the theme Things that could've been better: -Very light on story, felt too much like a puzzle room for my tastes -Game felt a bit longer than necessary, like at least one puzzle was a bit tedious and took too long, some unnecessary repetition -The order of the puzzles didn't feel natural. It felt like we hit the climax when most games would end, but then the puzzles kept coming -Too many puzzles had text directions on how to solve them, the game should be more intuitive Cons: -A power issue disabled the room, it had to be reset and we had to restart a puzzle -Our game master was giving too many hints unprompted for things we weren't even struggling with You definitely need 4 people to complete some of the puzzles, I wouldn't recommend more than 6 as there isn't as much to do in parallel. I preferred Attraction over Edison since there is a stronger narrative, more interesting/transformative/immersive set, and more sense of adventure/discovery. If you are a puzzle snob, you might like Edison more.
