We recommend that you play this room if you're in Eureka Springs, AR. The theme fits the history of the town. The game flows nicely. The game master was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, it was explained to us that since Eureka Springs is a tourist town Escape Room 13 doesn't intend to change any of their rooms out anytime soon. This was such fun that we wish they'd do more.

Gameplay

Having to discover the secrets of the speakeasy and escape within an hour was the common theme. The room was set up very well for the period. Puzzles were innovative and challenging but clear. The room flowed very well.

Atmosphere

The room has all of the expected props of a speakeasy. Very immersive.

Customer service

The staff was excellent, enthusiastic and welcoming. They have a unique (funny) way of requesting hints and the game master did an excellent job of moving things along.

Particularly interesting or different

Nothing really unique, but still fun.

The plot carried through from start to finish and fit the room well.

It was a challenge with 2 players as there is a lot to find. However, the puzzles were straightforward and there was nothing too hidden. Very fun.
