The Dark One has awoken. Only the power of the Enchanted Scarlet Gem, hidden inside a secret chamber full of dangerous spells and perilous witchcrafts, can put an end to his reign of terror. You and your team of warlocks and witches must retrieve the Gem and defeat the rising darkness, or all will be lost. Make haste, for time is not on your side.

Fantastic escape room! Will definitely be back to try the others!!

Gameplay
Atmosphere

Very on theme, loved the touch of using the magic wand. All the puzzles were on theme as well.

Customer service

Phenomenal. Dumbledora was our Gm and she was great at giving us a nudge without giving the game away. She was patient and kind and we got along great!

Was anything broken?

No

Everything worked as it was supposed to! Nothing was broken at all.

Would love to see your rooms with more to do. Give more puzzles, more locks, more riddles to solve. For being a new escape room to the area, you’ve gotta make your mark and the two rooms we’ve done at Game Over have fell a bit flat.

Gameplay

It was just fine. I wish there was more to the room. It’s very linear, so you can only work on one puzzle at a time. I felt like I stood around a lot with not much to do.

The use of the wand made things “interesting or different”, but that’s kind of it.

Great room! I’ve done over 25 escape rooms and have the good, the bad, and the ugly. This room was so much fun, well thought out, and everything worked! The room is linear and makes sense. Most of it is tech driven which is really cool! The staff is so welcoming and friendly!

We unfortunately did not enjoy this room. The employees were super nice and helpful, but we were disappointed with the gameplay. There were hardly any puzzles to solve and the ones that were there were not very intuitive. We were playing guessing games the whole time and with no rhyme or reason. We liked one puzzle out of the entire room. I’m hoping their other rooms are better.

Gameplay

Honestly we were extremely disappointed. The games were not intuitive and the room was very confusing for no reason. We do quite a lot of escape rooms and we did not enjoy this one.

Atmosphere

The room was decently decorated to go with the theme.

Customer service

The hostess was very sweet

The difficulty level was only medium, which should’ve made it pretty easy to escape. But there were hardly any puzzles to figure out and the ones there were not intuitive. This was frustrating. Some of the clues didn’t sync up well enough to actually work.

Thank you for your feedback. While we’re glad to hear that our staff was helpful and friendly, we’re sorry that the gameplay didn’t meet your expectations. We want to clarify that the room was functioning as intended, and all puzzles were designed with logical solutions. We understand that some puzzles may feel more intuitive than others, and while we strive to create a balance of challenge and engagement, we recognize that not every puzzle style will resonate with every player. Each of our rooms offers a different type of gameplay, and we’d love for you to try another experience that may better suit your playstyle. We appreciate your visit and your honest feedback, and we hope to see you again for another adventure! 🔐😊

Game Over, the escape room franchise from Greece, has opened a location near Jacksonville. Let me be frank: this room was abysmal. The technology consistently failed throughout our experience, and I struggled to find a single positive aspect worth mentioning. While I've generally appreciated Game Over's rooms in the past, this one fell spectacularly short of their usual standards.
