The Neighbor

This was a very good room. It integrated well and was thoughtful. The puzzles were good and some were unique. We were impressed and enjoyed it more than we expected. There are a lot of parts that we appreciated even more after the room like every room being used multiple times, one puzzle being used 2 different ways and that we could hear each other easily from different rooms. These took a lot of collaboration and we felt that was very easy because of the way the room was set up. Also, there was nothing that we didn’t like or that didn’t make sense. Often a good room can still have something that wasn’t optimal. Great room.

You have to experience this one yourself. No review will do it justice.

One of the most fun we have ever done!

The Neighbor was so much fun! The puzzles had us going back and forth in all the rooms, the various lights were awesome. It was super high tech and all the tech worked really well. There are some flashing lights that were listed in the description, which could be problematic for folks with seizures or migraines. The gamemaster, Manny, was fun and engaging. He kept our game moving and we were successful. If we have time before we leave town we will try to do another of their rooms.

Great tech. Puzzles were fine. However. Still a great room.

Overall a great room! The setting is fun and well made. There were a couple unique puzzles in here that were fun too, although I wish the puzzles had been more challenging on the whole. It did feel a bit like you were just following directions with a lot of them, rather than being challenged to figure something out. The mechanism that progresses you through the game was fun too, although it was a little unclear from a story perspective why you were doing what it told you to do, so you just have to go with it. But it’s always more enjoyable when it’s clearer what’s going on and what you are trying to achieve with the things you’re solving. All in all, I really enjoyed the room and would recommend it to others. I can be nit picky if I want to, but it’s still very worthwhile to play this room.

Had a ton of fun at my first escape room and Manny did such a great job at explaining everything thoroughly being a great host for us! You can tell he loves his job and makes sure everyone has a great time. 5/5 would recommend.

Very awesome. So many new types of puzzles ive never seen before.

Worked well with two people. My husband and I have done six escape rooms and this felt like just the right level of challenge and novelty for us. Really fun use of interactive technology. GM Kevin was helpful and welcoming. Highly recommended!

I rate this room a 4/5 (ck out my bio for my rating system). It had many novel and technologically advanced puzzles. The set was great with multiple rooms to explore, and it went well with the theme. The main "character" was unexpected and drove the whole room well. The reason it did not get the full 5/5 was because there was a 'time-sucker' concept in having to listen to pre-recorded puzzles. I don't prefer when I have to listen to long monologues in order to move on in the room. It just wastes time and kills the momentum. I don't mind if it happens a few times during an experience but when it happens multiple times, it's not as fun and a point is deducted for the satisfaction category. This was my second favorite room at this establishment ((The Missing Season was my first fave!).
