Vanishing Act

Rating: 2.5/5 - Basic, small room but not bad Pros: ➕Decent variety of puzzles and many fit the theme ➕Mix of locks and tech, more tech than most of their other rooms ➕Room looked decent with a lot of magic themed props ➕There is a bonus puzzle ➕GM was helpful when needed Could be better: ➖Puzzles were mostly forgettable ➖Ending is unsatisfying because you never actually find Leroy, just his food (this is not a spoiler as the GM tells you at the beginning what you're going to find). ➖They're old school and require you to lock up your phone and don't allow unlimited hints or nudges. They take themselves a bit too seriously and don't seem to value having fun like most other escape rooms nowadays. Cons: ➖Only a single room and it's very small ➖Too many locks of the same type, so you have to try the combination on multiple until you found the right lock. ➖One multi-step puzzle was convoluted, not sure how anyone would be able to solve it without a hint. ➖One puzzle required brute forcing the order of digits, I confirmed with the GM that the brute forcing is how the puzzle was designed. It's small room, I wouldn't recommend more than 2-3 players. We used all the hints and escaped with 5 min left. My ranking of Rugged Xscape rooms I've played, however I don't really recommend any room here, I enjoyed my time a lot more at Mission Breakout Lafayette. 1. The Morgue - 3/5 👍 2.
