The transmission that arrives at Mind Factory is scrambled. Mind Factory agents decode it. They hear two words. Help us. The rest of the transmission is static, yelling, and a series of bizarre sounds. Something has happened in a remote section of Colorado, inside a high security biohazard lab. There are hundreds of labs across the United States that handle dangerous biological materials. Each lab is assigned a safety level: BSL-1, BSL-2, BSL-3, or BSL-4. No lab with a biosafety level higher than a 4 has ever existed, according to official documentation. According to official documentation, there is no such thing as biosafety level 5. The unscrambled transmission that arrives at Mind Factory carries a tag with it: Unknown Entity. BSL-5. You, as a Mind Factory agent, must infiltrate the lab, figure out what happened inside, and isolate any threat to the outside world. But act fast. Time is running out.

This was a really fun experience that had a few components that we had never experienced before. It was challenging and required a lot of teamwork, but the reward at the end was totally worth the effort. The owner happened to be our game master, and he was great from before we even started to after we completed the room. We will definitely be returning to attempt the other rooms they have.

Had an excellent experience with Breathless! Theme was spot on, puzzles fit - none were extraneous - and made sense with the story. Everything worked and the decor and props were also great. I highly recommend this one!

Another great room. We love this company and the owner is fantastic. I would argue they have the best games in CT in terms of storyline, immersion and challenge. Breathless was an easier room and first in the storyline, but the puzzles really flow and have some unique puzzles/thrills we haven’t had before. Must do rooms if you’re in CT.

Pleasure hosting you both again. We promise The Dollhouse(?) will be as cool (or cooler!) than Breathless and Invasion.

Loved the use of walkie talkies for bits of the game! The timer also changes speed at different points in the game which is always a cool element to have in a room

My group and I had a great time with Breathless. The mechanics were engaging and the story was very good. We did Invasion first, which was a better room, so Breathless felt a bit anticlimactic by comparison. The door mechanic was cool but I wish it felt just a bit more punishing. I like the idea of using your remaining time as a resource, but we were able to game it very easily. The room is not terribly difficult, but the puzzles are great and don’t require any unnatural leaps in logic. The dramatic tension and theming in Invasion is more to my preference, but both are very well-designed experiences that are sure to leave you satisfied. Thank you Dave for the great experience! We’re looking forward to the next room!

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a couple reviews. And we hear you about Breathless feeling a bit anticlimactic compared to Invasion. Thanks to your feedback, and the feedback of other customers, we’re addressing this (and one or two other things) and releasing an Enthusiasts’ version of Breathless. It’s going to be sick! Pleasure chatting with you, and so glad you had fun.

Absolutely wonderful time! We booked last minute on a whim and drove about an hour and a half to come visit and am so glad we did. We had David (owner and game designer) as our GM and he was wonderful and you could tell he truly cares about the game. The room was fun with some cool tech and interesting props that made it fun to play. Overall a very good game for both beginners and experts alike

Gameplay
Atmosphere

Had some really cool set design and fun elements that felt very immersive

Customer service

Our GM (David) who is also the owner and game designer was fantastic. Did a great job at not over hinting but not letting us spiral. Knew exactly what kind of experience we wanted being well versed in escape rooms.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Had some tech elements like the door system that I have never seen before and really enjoyed interacting with.

One of those games where it is hard for both experts and beginners as those who are well versed in escape rooms often overlook the simple clues but do well on the hardest stuff and vice versa for beginners

This was second escape room I ever did and it was solid challenge. It took my team and I time to figure out the puzzles but it was attainable. The storyline was great.
