Mark as done to rate

Gen 3/4 Game Deep in the jungle lies the Temple of Oculto (Hidden Temple), where the great warrior, Guerrero (literally Great Warrior), was buried with his amulet, the Heart of the Jaguar. When raiders stole the amulet, they unleashed Guerrero’s curse, turning the temple into a treacherous place filled with spectral guardians. Only by returning the amulet and performing a sacred ritual can the curse be lifted. Until then, the temple remains a warning against greed and disrespect for the dead. Are you brave enough to lift the curse?

Very immersion experience. More of a beginner friendly type escape room, but still enjoyable enough for experienced players. The immersion storyline was especially enjoyable. Our guide Erika was also awesome and friendly.

I have to start this review the same way I started Lucky Dice Diner by noting that this is by far the kindest, most caring escape room company/staff that I have ever encountered in my 60+ escape rooms. I am severely immunocompromised, and the staff wore masks throughout our visit, had air purifiers on in the building, and sanitized objects prior to my arrival. I have never felt so seen, safe, and cared for when doing rooms before. I look forward to returning to Expedition Escape the next time I'm in Pennsylvania and cannot thank them enough for taking my accessibility seriously. And as for the room itself: This room does a wonderful job creating that feeling of being the main character in an adventure story through well-made lighting, sound, and effects—we had an absolute blast playing! The tech was astounding, and this room is also all tech, no traditional locks. If you're looking for a fun, immersive experience, look no further! The one thing I think could really take this room to the next level is having adaptive difficulty. We escaped in 34 minutes as a team of two, and there was definitely clear opportunity to add additional puzzles to the last task of the storyline for anyone hovering around the 1/2 time mark, to make sure everyone is having a full close-to-an-hour experience. Shout out to our GM, Anna, who gave me a wonderful birthday surprise since we'd initially booked these rooms for my birthday in October—I was absolutely delighted! And a huge thank you for being so understanding when we were late and apologies again for our timing mix up!

Genuinely the kindest staff I've ever met

Accessibility

People with low vision might want to check in with the room ahead of time to discuss possible accommodations ; we took stairs up to the second floor to get to the room, but perhaps there is an elevator we didn't see; two puzzles require color differentiation

Super immersive and worth staying together and doing each puzzle as a group, watching what happens after they are solved. High tech, some great effects and theming spot on. Highly recommend!

Loved the theming and clever puzzle design of this room. We had Anna as our game master and she was fantastic. The production value was very high, and all the puzzles felt very fair even where we got stuck. We finished with about 18 minutes to spare as a team of 2.

Probably my FAVORITE room in all the escape rooms I've ever done!! This one was great... from the start. I think it's all the technology elements of the room but it was GREAT we all enjoyed it. Lots of special effects, lots of props and definitely immersive!

We had a great time - Erika on the front desk suggested this room, and Anna was our excellent GM. The room was clearly new and had a lot of clever signals and cluing via atmosphere; we really loved it.
