Lost City

Torn between giving this a thumbs up or down, but due to the excellent customer service and good sets/designs of the room, went with thumbs up. This was the first ER in a long time where I did not have a lot of fun and it was only ok. The puzzles were very basic and nothing was interesting about them to give you any special moments. Part of the reason I did not love this room was because we brought 6 experienced people and this room is too small/basic to make it fun for everyone. If I would have done this room with 1-4 people total, or if I was a beginner, my experience would have been much better. The most frustrating part of this room was one of the puzzles had colored pegs where you needed to see the colors. It was very dim lighting and even when we used our phone flashlights, we could not determine the color of these pegs so we spun our wheels for 10+ minutes, even though we knew how to complete the puzzle. Overall, customer service was very good (Molly as the host and Will as GM). I have done Scooby Doo and Th3 C0D3 at other Escapology locations and these other 2 rooms were a lot more fun.

Pretty good template for what a temple-themed room should look like! Liked whenever things lit up or moved, although there wasn’t anything that necessarily wowed me about the design or technology. Decorations, props, and setting looked overall good, though. Some things seemed out of place like why are there ancient temple keypads? Puzzles were not too hard, but nothing too surprising, especially if you’ve done it rooms at this national chain. The Lost City is still a good game that plenty will no doubt want to venture inside to experience for themselves!
