Gold Rush

Great set, linear story. Friendly GMs and easy location to find. We got out with 3 mins to spare. Thanks!

This game was well themed but had two Achilles heels. One of the puzzles relies on a method of interaction that was highly unreliable which made it essentially impossible. We wasted 10 minutes before the GM asked if we wanted to skip that puzzle, and they later told us most teams skip it. Another puzzle gives you a certain amount of something, which was not nearly enough to accomplish what you needed to do with it (not that there was waste, there just wasn’t enough to begin with, or the puzzle was set up wrong). Either way it left us having to guess half of the solution. It’s a shame because the rest of the room was so well done, but these ruined the experience. This is the first room at the Escape Game Lynnfield that I wouldn’t recommend.

A fun time! Can be a good option for doing it with family

Not a game design we like much, had to solve one puzzle before moving onto another, can't have things going simultaneously which makes it not great for a larger group. We had 4 people and felt like 2-3 would've been better, cannot imagine how hands off most people would be if there were 6+ of us. One physical thing we had to do to advance in the room was not well designed and took us the majority of the time to pass this one step due to poor vision

The escape game has amazing room design. Very beautiful, and thematic. The gameplay was a bit linear. With 4 players there were a handful of times where only 1 player could be working as completing the puzzle was required before anything else could be done

The set was great and had some unique puzzles we haven't seen before!
