Mark as done to rate

Lab Rat takes place in a laboratory where giant rats are doing odd experiments on human beings, specifically you! The somewhat unhinged Ratkenstein, a doctoral student in the field of human intelligence (or, in his estimation, the lack thereof), has tasked you with completing a series of tests and puzzles. If you succeed, he can finally write his dissertation. If you fail, he’s going to put you and your friends in the old test-subject chipper (like a wood chipper, but for test subjects!). You’ll have one hour to complete the tests and attempt to get out of the laboratory for good, before Ratkenstein turns you into mulch!

My group of six felt just right. Most rooms that many would be stepping on each other, but there was plenty of space to spread out and have everyone searching for clues.

One person had to climb a sturdy ladder. One room required squeezing or crawling through a slightly tight space to access. No extreme physical activity required.

Super fun! The puzzles were so unusual and really stretched out my group of four. Our GM, Bryan, was rad and did a great job working with us without getting in the way and staying in the universe of the room. Very cool, unique escape room.

Super fun!!! Lots of really great moments and payoffs that make it really rewarding. Also I love seeing a story that is humorous and goes through the entire room.
