The Ghost Of Mentryville

What a fabulous, immersive room!! The story was top notch and it was such an interesting and fresh take on a Gen1 room. LOVE the live actor at the center of the narrative AND gameplay (shout out to Jack!). Love the story and the brilliant use of every inch of a small space. One of my fav experiences for sure!

Don't worry about following the time and getting lost here, the ghost of Mentryville willl guide you. Very well done room and puzzle design, unique and novel! Shoutout to the live actor giving us his all and interacting with us.

This room, like some other immersive rooms its much more theater with escape elements. There is an actor involved in this room, but the interaction is strictly story driven. Room itself is semi spooky possibly for some, but there's no scary elements just limited to decoration. Atmosphere for the room is excellent, appropriate to the story, and very well done, particularly the table that is a focus for a majority of the room. Keen eyed folks will have their opportunity and another solution. Great room for my 100th!

The Ghost of Mentryville a beautifully crafted game. I would call this room 50% immersive theatre and 50% escape room. They did a great job with the character and storytelling and the craftsmanship in the room was very impressive. It had very good flow and my friend and I both enjoyed it very much. This is a very gen 1 room, but a good one.

This experience is hard to put into words because it raised the bar and blew away all my expectations. Coming in, I knew that we were going to do puzzles with a story as well but the way that this was executed, it was *chef’s kiss*. This room is a masterclass of how you can do so much with a small space, low budget, and limited tech. The entire time, as we were following along with the story, I had a sinister feeling that I was participating in something that I shouldn’t be and I haven’t really experienced that tension before with other live actors. The clues provided to us were also carefully shared in a way that led us to the right direction, while still challenging us to look at the puzzles differently. I wish I could forget (haha) this room so I could play it again! We had a group of four, which I think is the maximum number of people and they tell you right away to immerse yourself in the story. I think a group of 2 could work also! It really depends on who you could be trapped in a small room with and not feel claustrophobic. There is no time limit but most groups finish in 70-90 minutes.

Phenomenal experience for a somewhat dated “Generation 1” room. The integration of the live actor into the puzzle flow and story was expertly executed. I guess the main reason I’m hesitant at giving this room a full “heart” is because…. Well… i can’t shake the fact that all the puzzles and most of the actual game is a bit… oldschool. Nearly all, if not all, of the puzzles were combination or key locks. They were very, very, very COOL locks. But all mechanical locks non the less. I’m sure when this room first opened this room was mindblowing. Unfortunately, compared to some newer and more cutting edge games, Ghost just doesn’t quite cut it any more. That said, we still had a fantastic time, and they really made the most of a tiny space and straightforward components. We still recommend this as a great escape room experience and we’ll take this any day over some more copy-and-paste style generic rooms. Ghost had heart, creativity, a whole lot of spookiness, and most importantly: fun.

If you’re at all within driving distance of SoCal, you gotta go check this room out. It’s a beautifully crafted experience with more twists and turns than I thought a space that small could have. Thank you once again to Tony and Perigee for a fantastic experience!

Absolutely incredible. Play this game. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Small space, minimal-to-no tech, incredible story, atmosphere, acting, puzzles, and overall execution. PLAY THIS GAME. Perigee was an amazing game master.

This was our first experience in a room with a live actor. I didn't like it enough to want to do this type of room more than those without a live actor, but I would probably do it again at some point. That being said, the actor was amazing! Despite my 15 year old daughter constantly talking to him like he was her best girlfriend, he remained in character the whole time! A very impressive feat! The room was pretty multi-dimensional for really just being one room. The live actor guided us through each part which was helpful because he was able to gauge when we needed little or extra assistance in our escape. It did have some pretty gory props for those thinking of bringing littles with them. It flowed well and had a pretty linear plotline. A few unexpected customizations to our group as well. There's no timer which was probably appropriate for the room, just not my preference. Overall, would easily recommend.

Go to this room! It is incredible. It is spooky but it is worth every second. It is unique and unlike any room I have done before. We loved it and will recommend it to everyone.
