The Museum Of Curiosity

I had a great time in the museum of curiosity. Lots to do that kept everybody active. One of the few rooms that when they say they can house a larger group, they actually mean it. I liked the mix of traditional locks and new mechanisms. The room is almost a little cypher heavy but those puzzles never take too long to complete. I liked that the GM never let you struggle for long before offering a hint. They were passionate and clearly cared a lot about their room and escape rooms in general.

The main room was very spacious with a lot going on. It would definitely be better with a larger group (we had nine people). There were many puzzles to solve so we were usually broken into smaller groups working on different puzzles. Afterward, the gamemaster explained that it's a "dynamic" room that adjusts to how quickly we solved things so it could have been easier or harder, depending on how we progressed.

This was one of the best rooms we’ve played. The room is non linear with only a few locks and keys. The puzzles get easier or harder the faster or more efficiently you solve them so- you don’t know your level until you complete your room. That concept is amazing!

I'd say my favorite part of this experience was how hints were distributed. They were just given with out us asking for them so if you're a more advanced group, you may want to cover this with your GM before you go in. However, if you're beginner/intermediate group like us, it can be tricky to know exactly when to ask for them, especially if you're all wrapped up in the game, so having hints volunteered can be nice. To our GM's credit, he was right on the money and kept the game flowing well and hints were always there right when the group was not having fun anymore with a puzzle we were stumped on.

Great staff. Good for beginners
