I brought my husband here for his birthday and our experience was outstanding. The puzzles were challenging, but not to the point of frustration. I love that the theme is tied to a historic figure. We look forward to visiting when the next room opens this fall!

Gameplay

Excellent gameplay with a good variety of puzzles and mechanics.

Atmosphere

The host was in character as soon as he greeted us and didn’t break character until we finished. The room theming was great.

Customer service

I have visited a few escape rooms. This was hands down the best GM I’ve encountered.

We played as a party of two. There was plenty of space for one or two more, but more than four would have felt crowded. Excellent for couples!

An older child would probably enjoy the experience - depends on the child! I would say this is family friendly. Not scary, fun theme.

My husband and I fully loved this game. The passion that the game creator has for escape rooms came through in this room. It’s not unnecessarily hard and the theme is well incorporated. The puzzles are novel and interesting with lots of neat tech and no busy work or scavenger hunt type mechanics. I also appreciate that it didn’t rely on darkness to make things more difficult. Also it’s in a great location. We had a great time.

First room at this location! Even though it’s more on the mechanically simple side of things, you can really feel the passion put into planning this room. It’s a decent option in the Columbus area, and I look forward to seeing this company expand their options!

Great room with cool puzzles. There was no straight searching for keys. All the puzzles made you think without being frustrating. They all had satisfying solutions. Run by someone who is clearly very passionate about making good rooms. Great place to drop by if you want to support an awesome Indy business. Better than some of the chain rooms I’ve done.

Highly recommend. This room has a great variety of puzzling and some tasking. There are really cool payoffs and the theming is awesome. I loved learning so real history, too!

We had two players: adult and 11 years old kid. We escaped. We really enjoyed the room. It was fun and very well aligned with the theme. We were treated very good by our game master.

5 escape rooms

A very fun escape room that's unlike any i've ever done before! Though the spaces are pretty small, the puzzles are well spaced out enough to let everyone in your team contribute something or figure something out on their own. I was worried about the shorter escape time (48m i think) but my team of 5 was able to go through it pretty fast, only really getting stuck 2 times.

The atmosphere and setting of this were top-notch! Loved the old building it was in, as well as the ambiance before the game even started. By the time you're even in the room, the escape room fun has begun! The owner was so friendly and fun to chat with. The story-telling and history behind the theme were so much fun. Some lock-and-key puzzles that fit the theme well, but also lots of really fun high tech too. There were a couple things that we had never seen incorporated into puzzles before, even though we have done 60 at this point. Loved the clue system and the immersion!
