Dragon's Quest

A room like no other you’ve likely done before. Definitely a challenge worthy of the 90-minute time allotment. I’d recommend going with a group of 6 or 8 and being ready for a load of humbling challenges to get you to the finish line.

Wow, what a room! The theming is incredible throughout, from the design of the set to the relevance of all of the puzzles. We tackled it as a team of two, fully aware that it is a vast room with puzzles designed for large groups and a minimum of four. Even with 15 extra minutes, we didn't quite escape, but despite that we loved every minute. The puzzles were mostly excellent, with just one that we think didn't quite work the way it was intended. We've played over 100 rooms, and this is in our top 10.

This escape room was so much fun! I got to go for my birthday with a group of friends and we all had such an amazing time! We loved that we got to work together but the way the room is set up is incredible! Looks amazing! Would definitely recommend! And what’s cool, is we can go back and do it again and, and do it a different way! I love that!

Large in scope and scale. A large set and quite the swath of puzzles to go along with it. It’s meant for a larger group, and the gameplay definitely facilitates that, but a fun experience overall and some fun cinematics. Misses the beat on a few things but a solid unique experience!

Universal budget theming. Doable with three people but recommend 4-5 for the amount of puzzles.

WOW! This game is an experience! Definitely more challenging with a smaller group but still incredibly doable. We had 4 experienced players and still had plenty of time left. Gameplay is interesting. Without spoiling anything, this game can totally be replayed without much prior knowledge, as each individual never really sees every puzzle being completed. The set alone is enough reason to play this one, but the gameplay does include some really cool and fun puzzles. Tip- wear comfy shoes and prepare to do a lot of moving around :)

Words cannot describe how crazy good this room is. It’s huge and the set design is phenomenal. I was geeking out the whole time. It’s DND meets escape room. Oh prepared to run around this room.

If you love DnD, LotR, or anything medieval you will absolutely love this experience! From what I’ve heard it’s one of the MUST DO games in the SLC area, and I agree! I would definitely do it again as there is so much to do in this room.

Dragon's Quest is an ambitious game that feels a bit rough around the edges, perhaps because of design choices that seem aimed at favoring large groups and isn't quite dialed in for smaller ones yet. I think there's a lot of potential to this game, but it still feels like it needs tuning. Fortunately, the staff seem open to feedback and genuinely interested in improving things. My favorite aspect was the large and visually interesting set, which isn't surprising given the company's background as a haunt. This game is a bit unusual in that I think larger groups would do well -- we played with 4 enthusiasts, and while we managed, a couple more hands would have helped due to parallelism, space, and (at times) search. While I like games that give roles to different players, I don't think Dragon's Quest quite lands it - in retrospect, we would have done better if we had ignored the assigned roles. Somewhat confusingly, while the game explicitly prompted 1 class to split off early, it didn't continue to do this, so we spent a good fraction of the game confused about how much we were supposed to separate. From a gameplay perspective, I'm guessing the real reason is to encourage large groups to not clump up too much (i.e. players sort of get a zone of the game to cover), but this was somewhat counterproductive with a small group. Similarly, there was one particular search task that I thought wasn't well clued, and even after we knew what and roughly where we were supposed to search, we still had a lot of trouble finding the things we needed. With a larger group, this might not be as much of an issue -- people would be more likely to randomly stumble across them. Lighting (and sometimes lack thereof) is another issue. While I get the vibe they're going for, my group of probably older-than-average players simply had a difficult time reading or making out certain elements. It's that the whole space is too dim, but rather than certain critical spots should be lit better, or certain props should be reworked. Things still being under construction elsewhere in the building meant that on at least two occasions, doorways looked out at clearly out-of-game areas, leading us to incorrectly conclude that those doorways were also out of play (they weren't). After the game we were told that contractors had forgotten to close doors behind them. The finale, while thematically appropriate, suffered from pacing. Inadequate lighting resulted in a search task that I'm not sure was intentional, and killed our momentum for what should have been a climactic ending. I think a little bit of tweaking will help smooth out the game a lot, and I don't envy the owners for trying to make a game work anywhere from 4-16 players - that's a huge range.

The set build was quite amazing. You can tell that they put a lot of effort and time and resources into building a world that was very immersive. The majority of the puzzles were very well thought out and challenging. There were a couple puzzles that didn't work as intended.But it didn't affect the overall experience very much. I enjoy the experience overall, but lighting is a big deal for me.As an older person, and several of the puzzles were difficult.Just simply due to poor lighting. There were a couple of puzzles that it wasn't Very easily deduced that there was something else to do, so we had to ask for hints, which is disappointing when you want to try to be able to solve everything on your own. This is a newer room, so I suspect they'll work out some of these cakes as they continue to refine the room. Overall, it is a solid room and one of the best sets.I've seen in the state as far as the beautiful design.
