Mark as done to rate

Many years ago, there was a crew of barbaric pirates led by their bold and intrepid Captain. His name was Captain Goldbeard and he spent his years voyaging the seas in the hopes of acquiring treasures beyond his wildest dreams. But one night, many moons ago, the Captain and his crew landed themselves in troubled water embarking on a quest where few others dare go, aboard an abandoned ship laden with treasure, known as ‘The Soul Catcher’. But little did he know what lay ahead… As the old pirates tale suggests, the treasures aboard The Soul Catcher were protected by a deadly sunset curse. As the story goes, there is only one rightful owner of the fortune and those who don’t succeed nor belong are to have their souls captured by the ship come sunset, holding them prisoner inside The Soul Catcher for eternity! And this was the poor fate for the Captain and his crew, who fell victim to the deadly curse and until today, not a soul has dared come near. But that means only one thing… The treasures are still up for grabs! Now if you’re here today for that very reason, to find the fortune, I must warn you of the voyage you are about to take. But the deadly sunset curse waits for no one and you only have one hour before the sun sets beyond the horizon where you will be left prisoner aboard The Soul Catcher for eternity, with no escape! Do you have what it takes to find the hidden treasure and beat the deadly sunset curse? Are you the rightful owners of the fortune or will you become the next prisoner to The Soul Catcher? Tread carefully and don’t let this adventure be your last! Time is of the essence…”

A solid pirate game to play. Multiple rooms, many great props, and engaging enough for non-linear gameplay. Don’t recommend many of this company’s games but this is fun.

Diverse puzzles 🧩 and lots to engage with.

86 escape rooms

A better Escapology game. Crammed a lot into a compact space, but overall didn’t really stand out among other nautical themed games in the area. Was a great time, but didn’t do anything particularly new or interesting, felt like a replaying combination of pieces from other escapology rooms. Would recommend to anyone not familiar with this company’s games.

Gameplay

Several escapology staples mixed with new puzzles for an interesting overall effect.

Atmosphere

Limited lighting wasn’t great for older players, but the narrator was excellent.

Customer service

Staff was professional but cold in general, didn’t ruin anything at all.

Particularly interesting or different

No

Fairly standard escape room theming, but well executed.

Story

Understandable and standard, nothing too crazy or out there.

Difficulty

Hard

Required a few more nudges for us than normal. A slightly more experienced party might have an easier time, no major leaps in logic required.

The first room was cramped even for escape room standards, and wasn’t particularly large in general. Many more and this game would get cramped.

Scary

Not scary

Minimum age

10

Purely for the difficulty of the puzzles.

Was anything broken?

No

Nothing was broken, however several puzzles were finnicky and one prop was easily broken by us. (We sincerely apologize)

Live actors

No

Physically active

Not at all

Accessibility

Crawling is necessary for at least one player, and honestly all four players would benefit from being physically capable of crawling.

Easy to find location

Yes

Clearly signposted.

Parking

Medium

In a busy area, but a nearby parking lot always has spaces.
