Mark as done to rate

In the 15th Century there is no man, no academic, as well known as Leonardo Da Vinci. In the bustle of Florence many young minds crave nothing more than to work with the master of science and art. They travel from far and wide to see what knowledge he can bestow on them and you yourself are one of such students. Steps away from realizing your dream, you enter his workshop and feel your breath catch in your throat. This is no simple workshop. This entire room is a test designed to see if you are truly deserving of his effort. Do you have what it takes to prove your worth? Or will you be one of the many minds to fall into the margins of history? Taking place late into the 15th century when Leonardo Da Vinci was at his peak, Da Vinci’s Challenge is a Historic/Adventure that gives you 60 minutes to solve a puzzle made by Da Vinci himself to test you. See if you are able to prove yourself in the eyes of one of the most genius minds of all time.

This was one challenging - appropriate for the theme! You are initially split into 2 chambers which sets the tone for the need to be able to work in non-linear/parallel gameplay. 4 experienced people is an ideal set up for this room. The puzzles had a good creative variety. Our gamemaster was involved in our success and alert to our progress.

This was a beautifully-designed room with some unique puzzles. Leonardo DaVinci-theme (as opposed to DaVinci Code). Most everything was era-appropriate (two key locks being the exception). Players begin in two separate rooms and some help is needed from the other room to merge the rooms. My only real complaint would be that one room solved their side much more quickly than the other side, which was a little frustrating (waiting). The introduction involved a live actor, which was fun. Very few rooms in the DFW area utilize live actors at all. Overall, a fun room with just enough challenge to make it really fun. Unique and era-appropriate puzzles were great. Will def go back to try more rooms at this company!

I wanted to love this room, but I didn’t. It’s definitely an expert level room, but it was hard to determine what you were supposed to do next. I wasn’t a fan of the acting bit. The room design is brilliant, but you definitely need more than an hour to enjoy it. I will go back and try other rooms for sure, but don’t start with this one.

Did not flow well.

Excellent! Well thought out puzzles that were engaging. There was only one lock in the room, everything else was puzzle locks. There were two separate rooms for your group members forcing you to work together but the separate rooms were still non linear puzzle solving. The quality of the decore and props was outstanding, even the paper props felt authentic. One of my favorite rooms now.

This is an incredibly well-decorated and themed room with almost no padlocks - just well thought out puzzles! We had 7 people and not everyone felt able to participate at all times so might have been better with less. Our game master Logan was great. This place has amazing production quality for their game trailers so I was a little surprised they needed a live introductory preamble to set the scene instead of a video but that’s ok, the room more than made up for it. Can’t wait to try out more of their rooms.

Amazing room, so beautifully designed. Room was on the more difficult end, so would not recommend this as a beginner room, but so enjoyable for any experienced escape room enthusiasts

Was told by the game master this is the hardest room in the DFW area and would have to agree. Was very challenging but pay off was worth it. Definitely need a larger group to complete, our group has 6 and I think this was the perfect number. Whole room was made in house and was beautiful! Super unique puzzles and no locks. Will be back to try their other rooms for sure.

This room was excellent. The set design was very well done and the puzzles were challenging throughout. Almost no padlocks, which a lot of rooms will lean on as a crutch to avoid designing good puzzles. This place was mechanical throughout. Larger groups definitely recommended. Easily a top 10 room I’ve done.

Gameplay

Excellent non linear puzzles, great for a larger group.

Room looks good but no locks everything is mechanically run including clues. Which is fine if you follow the flow but there wasn’t a good flow. So clues didn’t always make sense. Maybe more people would have helped so we could divide and conquer. Don’t accidentally press the button by the door (not lit or well marked) it will reset the entire room and you will end your game early.
