Mark as done to rate
For years Paw and Maw had been runnin’ neck and jiggly neck with each other but Maw reckons she might could have a new secret recipe so good it’ll put hair on your chest and Paw outta’ business for good -and you can bet Paw ain’t havin’ none of neither! She’s fixin’ to hold a hootenanny tonight to celebrate the launch of her new brew, so there ain’t much tickin’ and a tockin’ left on the old time wheel for Paw to stop ‘er before it’s too late. Even a blind toad that ain’t got but just three legs can see that’s where you come in. No one would ever suspect them fancy city folk is really Paw’s seventh cousins five times removed. It’s time to defend that family honor which’n no one quite understands and put Maw outta’ business fer good. Ya best be hurryin’ cause Maw will be back soon. Paw’s kin’ll give you the tools you’re gonna need to do the job. So what are y’all waitin’ for? Stop listenin’ to me and break into Maw’s shack and blow her ‘shine still to smithereens!

Honestly one of the best rooms we've seen so far! Dan was our game master, and he stayed 100% immersed in the game the entire time, it was so fun and perfectly challenging!

This room was a hoot! This is a public room, so my wife, myself, and our 7yr old daughter were joined by a mother and son duo, and we all had a blast in this room. So many practical puzzles that fit into the story so well. The story was funny, and our GM was amazing.

This was just a different story than the typical escape rooms out there. The story was funny and it helped drive the entire experience.

We had to park at a remote lot and walk about 10 minutes or so to get to the location. It is on the main strip in Gatlinburg.

This game is good. Puzzle heavy but almost too chaotic to be amazing. Sadly our game master was very poor, no enthusiasm and should probably switch jobs for their own happiness level.

We did this room while we on vacation in Pigeon Forge. This room was fun but they were still grouping you with other people when we did this one.

Overall I enjoyed the room, nothing was broken but there were a few puzzles that felt a little worse for ware. For being the most popular game in Gatlinburg I did expect better. Overall— Gatlin’s has great games but less than great guides.

Only giving it a thumbs down because of the staff. There were multiple puzzles that we had completed and were triggered over ten minutes later, and it did not feel like she was paying attention to us. At the end of the game she showed us to the door of the room and then started the reset without even congratulating us.
