Excellent escape room experience for our team of four very experienced players (and designers). The Temple Raider room was exactly what we were looking for… immersive experience with an excellent set/atmosphere/story along with clever and unique puzzles that required solving to find codes as well as novel manual manipulation of game objects to decipher codes or obtain access to secured spaces.
The live acting involved is perfect… sets the mood without interfering with game place or immersion. Excellent job.
The four of us all loved this room and recommend it for very experienced players looking for an escape room worth your time/money, as well as for new players wanted to see what an escape room should be!
There were several puzzles or types of puzzles that we hadn’t seen before and that was awesome. Lots of touching and manipulating items/objects, rather than just reading things and entering codes.
It flowed very well and we worked our way through the puzzles without feeling like they were boringly linear. All four of us felt engaged at all times… contemplating different possible solutions, searching for puzzles, or looking for clues.
Excellent immersive atmosphere throughout the experience, starting with the room you start in for the introduction, which including excellent live acting.
Excellent experience all around. The woman who greeted us was friendly and chatty while we waited (we were early) and Ethan was great when we talked after the game!
Particularly interesting or different
Yes
The live actor intro definitely made a difference in our experience. Because it was all done before the room started, as a set up to the story, there was no awkwardness of having an actor in the room with us, nor did they interfere in any way with our solving/experience.
The atmosphere was excellent… it was very immersive and made us feel that we were someplace else!
The plot was memorable and enhanced by the live actor at the beginning! Excellent job!
We are experienced and flowed through it pretty well… enjoyed the difficulty of the puzzles and were never stumped enough to ask for a clue, so there wasn’t anything inappropriately obscure or misleading.
Game tech
Good mix of both.!
We believe that four is always the ideal number of players for just about any escape room so take that with a grain of salt! The room is big enough that 8 people would probably not feel cramped.
Dark atmosphere with jungle sounds but it wasn’t particularly scary.
Nothing scary or hard to reach or dangerous… but kids under 7 probably wouldn’t contribute much.
Yes! We have always avoided rooms with live actors because we didn’t like the idea, but this was fantastic! Ethan did an excellent job with costumes and accents and it really put us in the mood for the experience! Way better than the typical escape room intro video!
Physically active
Not at all
Just walking around as is typical in any escape room.
It was easy to find but it is in a house in a neighborhood so it might feel like you’re in the wrong place but there are signs so you know you aren’t!
We parked behind… there are some spots back there behind the house.
