EscapeU: Freshman Year

This was an okay room, and don’t expect much if you’re an enthusiast. Understandably, Royal will try to sell every spot in the room for a max of 12 players which we had. This did prove beneficial for the number of puzzles in only 30 minutes, however there was no “WOW” factor and almost no technology. Manual puzzles in a non-linear room. The puzzles were creative and the theme made sense, just nothing exciting or noteworthy for me personally, and at $40 for thirty minutes, I would hesitate to do another like this.

For a 30-minute room on a cruise ship, this was not bad. It's not like they stuck you in a room with puzzles on paper and had you solve them. We were actively walking across the room and working fast. It is worth doing. We had a good time!

For an escape room on a cruise ship and only 30 minutes, it was fun! It wasn't anything out of this world but it was still worth it. It is a shared experience though.
