Must do! The setting is unique and feels authentic (for the theme) - because it is actually based off the owners' real-life connection. You are transported to a true-to-life looking Chinese restaurant. A unique blend of puzzles, requiring a group of 4 experienced players (or a group of 5-6 with a mix of experience) to solve it successfully. The gameplay is non-linear. The mission and starting points are not obvious - requiring attention and observation - a recurring theme throughout the experience. It's a challenging experience overall but quite rewarding when you solve and make progress. Our GM was welcoming, friendly, and provided helpful nudges. Although you can get unlimited hints, any more than 3 won't count toward leaderboard eligibility. The clues are typed out on the screens - and we appreciated that the GM would pause the timer if he needed to manually input the clues. I'd recommend this room to all enthusiasts. Better to go with a team of 4-6 and split up to tackle different puzzles.

Gameplay

Non-linear gameplay. Starting points/puzzles are not obvious but require observation. It was a fun experience!

Atmosphere

Immersive set! Fun props.

Customer service

Friendly, attentive, and observant. Helpful nudges.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

It was unique and different to your standard escape rooms.

Story

Interesting mission and story stayed relevant.

Difficulty

Expert

Challenges come from non-linearity, variety of puzzles, and "where do we start/what do we do"? (It's part of the fun). Cannot afford to take too much time on any puzzle. Important to tackle two puzzles at any given moment. If everyone is stuck, ask for a clue.

Snuck this one in on a trip to Dallas happy we did. This room is full of puzzles and originality. It has old school escape room vibes but in the best way. The story is unique and tied to the owners and the puzzles are fun. Went down to the wired on this and loved the rush. Took a strong team to get through this as many of the puzzles happen at once and you have to stay organized. There is some math but you get a calculator and it’s in theme. 🥡🥢

For a room that we did not pass, I still had a lot of fun. There were some wear and tear on the puzzles but all of them worked as they should. I would rank other rooms in the area higher on my list but Wong’s is a solid experience. They don’t give you any clues to start with so the first room took us the longest to get through. It seems like a lot of folks were only a few puzzles short. We were one puzzle away and I’m so grateful to our game master for showing us what would have happened at the very end. I would recommend four people because there is so much to do! Parking was a breeze and the people here are friendly and passionate about what they do. Would come back to try their other rooms!

Very fun room even though we didn’t escape. We spent way too much time in first room. Ugh! LOTS to do in this room so no problem bringing a larger group than you normally would. Appreciated some Go the little touches throughout.

It was super fun! The tech worked for us! A ton of puzzles. There were just three of us and we failed with about 2-4 puzzles left.

Has been on the wishlist and so glad we finally got to do it. A must do if in the DFW Metroplex. Unique theme and super immersive. Lots of puzzles and a few types of puzzles we have never encountered before. Friendly staff (Sean) made it even better.
