Lovely room from start to finish. Felt immersed from the intro and the story building to the end was really satisfying. The puzzles were well thought out and led to some really fun/surprising results. Definitely would recommend this room if going to Ottawa and for sure a must if you’re going to this location.

Gameplay

Fantastic, the puzzle made sense, everyone of them added to the ambiance and the story. Some puzzle were unique and not seen anywhere else even specifically homemade for this specific escape room. It felt refreshing from start to finish. 😍

Atmosphere

AMAZING! From the very first seconds, the game waste no time to set the ambiance in a very drastic and cool way until you’re out of the game. Every aspect of the decor was meticulously crafted and chosen to create this masterpiece. 🤩 PLEASE FOR YOU READERS: At the end after the game. Ask to be shown the layout/where the room are situated. Hint: the door in the hallway right next to the entrance of the game.

Customer service

Absolutely well received. The GM was really welcoming, chatty and enthusiastic about us playing this game especially since it’s her favourite one. The owner was also present and really eager to know our thoughts and feelings about the game. It shows that everyone takes pride working here and are in a good working environment! 🫰

Without spoiling anything, everything feels unique and crafted accordingly to give you wow moment at all time.

Story

The story was short and sweet. Nothing too complicated. It does its job to set the mood and let you explore while having fun. The real story is your journey and what you’ve been through.

Difficulty

Medium

If you’ve done escape room before, this will be no problems. If you’re this type of players. It is possible to "Cheat" if you have big brain energy. P.S: Please don’t cheat 🥲

The spaces are relatively small as you would expect in a mine. Personal opinion Min 2 players/Max 3

Scary

Not scary

Can be stress inducing, you may find the game spooky-ish if you have certain phobias. The game doesn’t aim to be spooky.

Minimum age

12

I would say it is child friendly but would highly recommend being at least a teenager. Might be too difficult for kids.

Next level escape room 👌. The production quality of this room was top tier, the puzzels were varied and posed a good challenge level while always feeling intuitive and overall very engaging.

Loved Undermined! An amazing set, very immersive :) Bit of a narrow space so wouldn’t rec a huge group. My team of 4 was making great time until we became hung up on one puzzle at the very end, so we tragically didn’t escape. In hindsight should have asked for a hint sooner.. we probably needed just one more minute!

We loved the set of the room, but struggled with the mechanisms for some of the puzzles, which kind of took the fun out of things. Our game master wasn’t able to explain elements at the end, which was a bit disappointing since we’re very close to finishing. But it’s a great set and would be really fun without the hiccups we experienced.

We enjoyed working through this room. It flowed well and the puzzles were logical. The problem was that as a group of two, we didn't realize just how much there was to do, so we neglected to ask for hints. We prefer to work our way through a room without help, but for only two, we needed to ask. It was also unfortunate that the GM wasn't attentive enough to move us along a little faster because we probably only needed about 60 more seconds to finish the final puzzle.

Each GM watches two rooms, so they aren't very attentive.
