This was such a solid, interactive, and engaging escape room! I would highly recommend this room to Enthusiasts because of the complexities and amount of puzzles, the immersion, and the set design.
I’ve played Sev3n before when it was originally at Deceptive Games, and the puzzles at No. 1 Escapes are completely new! The owner David does a strong job at creating new puzzles, relating them back to the 7 deadly sins, and the complexities and uniqueness while telling a story.
This was by far my favorite escape room at this company because of its game play, immersion, and puzzles! My boyfriend and I played as a team of 2, and we were able to finish and escape, but this was by far the most puzzle heavy out of the other rooms that I’ve played here at No. 1 Escapes. I would recommend 2 advanced skilled players, or 3-4 beginners for this room due to the amount of puzzles needed to be solved.
Overall, we really enjoyed this room! I cannot recommend it enough. David the owner truly loves what he does and you can tell how much investment and dedication went into this room. GO PLAY SEV3N!!
Beware: this escape room is very puzzle heavy, but there is so much to do! You’re engaged from the moment you enter the room to the moment you escape. You have to Peak at the finer details and really pay attention or else you’ll miss obvious answers. Each puzzle made sense to the story, was very fluid and smooth, and a variety of puzzle styles.
WOW! The set design was so immaculate and immersive. From the props, the hint system, and the background music, you felt immersed into the story. You could tell how much detail and investment went into this room because of its visual components, the set design, the functions, and production style.
We were fortunate enough to have the owner, David, as our Game Master. He was phenomenal! He was attentive, gave us appropriate nudges when we needed it, and I truly enjoyed his sense of humor as well. The hint system was definitely a highlight, absolutely un-phone-gettable!
This escape room is based off the 1995 film, Seven, and this room has some fun references from the movie. I enjoyed the different presentations of the 7 deadly sins and its incorporation of game play without distracting from the story. It told a story and in a smooth, exciting, and mysterious way.
