The City of Ashes

loved the puzzles and scary ambiance!! this game is decently challenging, but the puzzles and concept were very original. we are definitely coming back here next time we visit brooklyn

Fun with a splash of spooky and creepy, very dark, with - few jump scares!

Adored the Silent Hill vibe and had a few scary moments! The puzzles were fun and engaging

I thought this was a terrible room. The puzzles were arbitrary and so were their solutions. They tried to make it spooky by being dark, but this was way over the top. In addition, some of the sound pieces to the puzzles were broken and the game host was arguing with me they weren't. Honestly, this room just was a miss, the host was bad. She didn't have a pulse on the room and was nowhere to be found when you needed a clue or something wasn't working.

Expect jumpscares! I enjoyed the various aspects of this room, and how the horror elements were weaved into gameplay. The puzzles were largely fair and flowed well.

I said I loved this room because NYC is hurting for good escape rooms and THIS was one of the first times in the city I left not thinking it was a waste of money! I had been looking for a scary escape room without live actors and this was the perfect amount of scary but not so scary that you can’t focus on the puzzles. Also there were a lot of rooms and really fun surprises. Some of the puzzles seemed worn down but overall I had a great time!

We were a team of 2 solving this. This room was very basic, good theme, a little on the scary side. It was pretty dark, so be warned. Clues were pretty basic, this was a basic escape room. We got out with about 18 mins to spare.

This was fun and I liked the setup but some of the features were a bit worn as mentioned in other reviews. One jump-scare in particular is quite ingenious. Not very hard.

The room was heavily influenced by silent hill. Horror themed and immersive. That was good. However, gameplay wise the game was bad - the game master had to enter the room 3 times because of malfunctions or badly designed tasks. Also- there was no timer in the room so you were basically clueless of how much time had elapsed. Ultimately it did not live up to expectations.
