Mark as done to rate

An ancient secret society is plotting to end the world, and their hidden lair lies deep beneath an old church. With no safe way inside, you must venture into a long-abandoned mine and blast your way into the crypt from below. The mine is dark and uncharted, the crypt is filled with secrets long forgotten, and time is running out. Explorers went in and never came out. Now, you’re the last chance to stop the darkness from spreading. Enter the mine, breach the crypt, and unravel the secret before it’s too late.

If you’re looking to blast a hole in a wall into a crypt to stop a secret cabal of people from plotting to end the world, give this room a try. The puzzles flowed well and my partner and I only needed minimal clues to prod us in the right direction. This is our second game here and we’ll be back to finish more.

This was my 3rd escape room at this location and my favorite so far. My kids and I came to play knowing it was a new game, but not knowing we were the first team to play (other than beta tests) which was a cool bonus. I really love seeing how escape rooms grow and improve as they build new games and this is no exception. There were some really cool unexpected moments and solid puzzles.
