Lockbuster Video

One of my favorite Illinois rooms! Love the storyline, atmosphere, and challenging puzzles. Lots of unique moments. A must play! The low lighting in one section did frustrate, alongside a few less intuitive moments coinciding with the low lighting, but it didn’t overshadow the absolute fun of the rest of the game. Don’t play with more than 4. They say 6 can fit in here but it would be incredibly tight.

High quality room with a fun theme. Both of our group had memories of the old rental stores, so that helped. A few puzzles didn't feel quite as "puzzly" as other rooms we've done, so it felt a little bland, but overall I'd recommend.

Another smooth and polished game, just a tad less than Arctic Expedition for me. Gameplay is very linear, and it felt the shortest of all the games at 60 to Escape Schaumburg, but it's quite fun. There are Easter eggs from some of 60 to Escape's other games at other locations, but it's not at all necessary to enjoy Lockbuster. The set is spot on for what they're trying to evoke, and the set takes some unexpected but neat turns as the game progresses. Puzzles are fine but on the simpler side - play this game for the set, not the puzzles. I found myself wishing the game was a little longer, and thought there was a hole in the plot that never got satisfyingly explained - Rule of Cool, I guess. Don't think about it too hard and enjoy the ride. Personally, these issues bumped it down from a love to a like.

super cool concept. the room is very linear but it worked well as we only went as a group of 2. good puzzle variety as well. the storyline was really fun and i felt super engaged the whole time.

Very unique concept met brilliant execution. A solid game play and sleek environment make this a standout, and fun settings tie everything together. My favorite at 60 to Escape Schaumburg.

Rating: 4.5/5 - Currently the top ranked room in Chicago area, and I get why since they do some unique things Pros: ➕ Awesome animatronic character with an interesting personality ➕ Lots of funny moments ➕ Super nostalgic ➕ Lots of easter eggs for their other games ➕ Great looking, high quality set with good audio/lighting effects ➕ Multiple rooms to explore with a cool transition between areas ➕ Tons of tech with only 1 padlock ➕ Decent puzzle variety with many tactile interactions ➕ Very linear which I like, especially for smaller groups ➕ Friendly and helpful GM Could be better: ➖ A couple puzzles that we had issues with but other groups may not have the same trouble. They were not broken, they just weren't intuitive for our team. It's very playable with two players, I'd recommend 2-3 because there are some smaller spaces. My team of 2 finished with more than 10 min left, it is on the easier side. UPDATE: My ranking of 60 to Escape rooms (all locations) so far starting with my favorite. 1. Lockbuster Video ❤️ 2. Cheesie's Pizza Party ❤️ 3. Invasion ❤️ 4. Mystery Manor ❤️ 5. Hidden Temple ❤️ 6. Blast From The Past 👍 7. Jurassic Outpost 👍 8. Arctic Expedition 👍 9. Magic Heist 👍

Great atmosphere and immersion. Fun concept. Amazing execution. There’s a room reveal that left us stunned (we didn’t see it coming). This is a game that has its tongue cleverly planted in its cheek, and it’s created with enough care and intention that you’re continually delighted. I can’t decide if this game, or Cheesie’s, is my favorite. By the way, we played with 2 and didn’t have any problem finishing the room.

I definitely liked the nostalgia factor. Would recommend.

One of my favorite escape rooms to date. The production and set was amazing. On the easier side, but I didn’t even care because it was so much fun.

One of our top favorites to date. Beautifully well flowing, well designed room all the way around. All 6 of their rooms are top notch at this location. 👌
