The Christmas Countdown: Checked Twice

Very fun escape room. We did it on a rainy day with our two kids (6 and 9 years old). They had a great time and were able to participate in all the puzzles. We had a fun time!

Perfect for children who want to get in the Christmas spirit.

7/10 The Christmas Countdown: Checked Twice is a charming room that works really well for all ages and families. It has a very cute story that’s easy to follow, and that story begins before you even enter the room. We always do appreciate when the immersion begins right away and Escape from Reality executed it very well. The puzzles tie nicely into the Christmas theme and successfully got us in the holiday spirit, even on a 90-degree day. That said, the room is quite basic overall, with straightforward puzzles that don’t offer much challenge for experienced enthusiasts. Because of that, we’d recommend pairing it with their other room(s) if you’re looking for more difficulty. It’s a perfect “first room of the day” or lighter experience. We had Whitney (one of the owners) as our Game Master for both rooms, and she was fantastic. Her energy and love for escape rooms is contagious and really elevated the visit. We’re looking forward to coming back when their third room opens!

This game was so fun! The set design was immersive & you can't really go wrong with a good Christmas game! Puzzles were well thought out & flowed well. It might be on the easier side for enthusiasts but don't skip it just because of that. The GM/Owner was clearly passionate about escape rooms & took pride in her work. Her philosophy is to get people off their screens (I love that!) so there isn't even a screen with a timer in this room (your time is announced verbally) We even got background on set pieces & a sneak peek at their new room being built! I would not hesitate to recommend this room/company

Room was lots of fun! My daughter loved it, definitely will be back! Owner was awesome, she made the experience very welcoming. Ended up doing both rooms and they were very thought out and fun! 👍🏽

This was a great room!! Experienced players will move through it quickly because it is on the easier side, but the flow was excellent, theme was fun and creative, and all the puzzles made sense/were totally logical. Loved the experience and we will be back to try the other rooms here soon!

Great room for beginners families and anyone who wants to.ecperience some Christmas magic!

Amazing room and the owners definitely know how to create a great time! We are looking forward to going again!

The owners are enthusiasts and you can tell. The flow was excellent and everything worked well. Puzzle gating was great- we always knew when we had the pieces to solve a puzzle and when we needed to wait. The very end had one moment I haven't seen in a room before and it was a delightful way to finish. The game is on the easier side, and would be perfect for a family with kids. We played as a group of two and that was the right size for us.
