The theming was incredible, making it my favorite wizard room to date (and I’ve done quite a few of them)! The School of Wizards is packed full of interesting and challenging puzzles that perfectly align with the theme of the experience. As a massive Harry Potter fan, I was floored by the props and inclusion of themes and objects that are part of the wizarding world. I cannot recommend it enough; it’s perfect for Potter fans and anyone seeking a wonderfully immersive foray into a wizarding world! Each room is different and exciting to enter, seamlessly moving you from one location to the next, deepening the sense of adventure throughout the escape experience. This room, along with the others from Mindtrap at The Big Banana, is a must for escape room fans. The rooms are challenging, and the attention to detail in puzzle design and aesthetics is impressive.
Gameplay
Gameplay was exceptional. The puzzles were bespoke and specific to the room itself, so they felt very much integrated into the experience. It was great, great fun. Tricky, in parts, making for a very rewarding challenge. Linear puzzles push you through the rooms. Cannot recommend enough!
Atmosphere
Incredible — never have I felt more immersed in a magical world within an escape room experience. Each room is lovingly crafted — they’re all notably different, too, which makes progressing through each space all the more exciting.
