You have 60 minutes to escape from prison, or it’s your life. No pressure. You and your group of friends have been sentenced to life without possibility of parole. You are rotting in a maximum security prison. The catch? You didn't do it. While waiting for someone to help you, you plead for your life in court, but your appeals have been denied again and again. Your entire group was set up, and the only proof that will set you free, is outside of the walls of the prison. Since the criminal justice system is broken, the only thing you can do now is rely on those inside to help you escape. It seems everyone in the prison - the cook, the janitor, all of the trustees - all believe you, and will work together to make sure you don't rot in prison for the crime you didn't commit. But will their help be enough?

The prison break theme had a lot of potential, and the set design was decent enough to get us into character. Unfortunately, the experience was interrupted (a lot) by a very over-eager game master who kept chiming in with clues — unprompted. It’s one thing to offer help when asked, but it’s another to have a voice from above constantly guiding your every move. It really took away the challenge and immersion. The puzzles themselves were just okay — nothing particularly memorable or innovative. Given the high price, I expected more in terms of quality and autonomy. If you’re planning to try this room, I’d recommend asking the game master not to give any clues unless requested. Or better yet… maybe choose a different room altogether.

We really loved the GM for this room! The way the room starts is cool, but we didn’t love the puzzles too much. There weren’t really that many puzzles tbh. There weren’t that many puzzles. We liked Escobar The Betrayal much more. I would say skip this one.

Fun! There were some red herrings but not enough to make you confused, and the way to communicate between cells in the beginning was very clever. Loved the costumes!

Breakout of your comfort zone, because this place is meant for you to go outside of the norm when it comes to escape rooms. Take into account your surroundings and consider if you should do something, maybe you should. Had a great time racking my brain to not follow the usual patterns, and once I got out of that train of thought, I wanted more. I think this is great precursor to another room. Would love to see a sequel of this.

Excellent use of the environment to bridge the gap between normal number searches and actually utilizing props that make sense to the storyline and setting in order to play. It didn’t feel like a normal escape room concept with an unattached storyline but, rather, I felt as if every single part of the game had its place and it created an even more enriching immersive experience for me. And, not to mention, they donate part of the ticket sales to project innocence. Which I think deserves its own kudos.

Mixed feelings about this game. It’s certainly good but recapping this game there’s maybe 3-4 puzzles and the rest is just searching or following instructions. One thing we didn’t like is our time was running while we were being told the rules and being placed in the room. This is poor practice for an escape room. Still got out but definitely not my favorite room here.

This was the best prison-themed room I’ve done. Just super immersive, with a lot of really good practical puzzle solving and a great use of space.

I liked this room quite a bit although it polarized our group (not everyone liked it). It doesn’t do anything especially novel in the “break out of prison” genre of escape room, but the set is nice and there are some good puzzles. I thought the split start was especially well executed except that it is needlessly difficult to hear each other through the method you have to use to communicate. But overall, I give it a thumbs up.

Gameplay

One puzzle that relies on dates really needs its in-game documentation updated because otherwise it makes no sense. But I liked the “hint system” a lot.

Atmosphere

Solid set design. One environmental puzzle struck me as particularly cleverly integrated with the set.

Customer service

Great GM. The game master both roleplays the hint system and has the opportunity to customize a moment of the experience for your team, which our GM did in a way that showed impressive attention to detail.

2-4 would be fine. It is a split start so you need at least 2. More than 4 would be very crowded.

  • This is one of the better prison escape rooms I’ve seen. It’s a worthy game…
