Mark as done to rate

Born on the streets during a cold February night, you and your siblings know only the harsh reality of alley life until the city dog catcher changes everything. Your mother sacrifices herself to protect you, hiding you behind a dumpster before being captured and taken away. Now in foster care, you meet Morgan, a street-smart Havanese with knowledge of the city's darker corners. When Morgan reveals your mother was taken to the local pound, you begin to piece together disturbing rumors about the facility. Dogs enter, but something isn't right about what happens inside those walls. With time running out, you and your siblings must find a way to escape your kennel and navigate the dangerous city streets to reach the pound. What begins as a desperate mission to save your mother will lead you into the heart of a mystery that threatens every dog in the city.

This was a really well thought out room. Joe made the experience and spent time talking about escape rooms before and after the experience which really made this venue stand out to us. I highly recommend this location.

Phenomenal escape room, in my details I go off on the GM Joe who was the owner as well, he makes great escape rooms, and we’ll be back for more!

Gameplay

The game was super fun, it made sense, the theming was superb. Nothing I’ve ever seen before.

Atmosphere

The set felt like being in an actual day care for dogs, was excellent.

Customer service

The GM (Joe/Owner) was outstanding, he welcomed us in and talked to us about escape rooms for 15 minutes before our actual game, he has some wonderful knowledge on escape rooms and was a pleasure to talk to. He was also the GM/Actor in the experience, really set the experience high for us.

Story

Memorable. I’ve never seen nothing like it.

Difficulty

Medium

Once you start actually looking at the puzzles, they make sense.

Game tech

High tech

Had some great use of special effects, and have be good with a particular tool.

Ideal number of players

I would say 3-4. We had two and mildly struggled, but that was on us. You could totally get this done with two, now if you want to do it faster? Three.

Scary

Not scary

The theming wasn’t scary, but our GM surprised us in a way that was memorable.

Minimum age

Game is super suitable for children, what’s not to love about animals?

Was anything broken?

Everything was working perfectly as intended.

Live actors

Yes

Yes! Only for a short period of time.

Physically active

Not at all

You are going to have to crouch a little, but only to get into rooms.

Accessibility

Not really going to be possible, right from the start you would get stuck.

Easy to find location

Yes

Little tucked in the corner, but GPS got us there!

What a really fun room! This company doesn’t disappoint! This room was very unique and innovative with some incredibly creative puzzles. The amount of attention to detail in this room was unlike that of any escape rooms I’ve done! They also really try to immerse you in this room and they do a very solid job of that. The puzzles were fun but not overly difficult. You have to think outside of the box on them and pay attention to every little detail you notice. Our GM was awesome and his acting was sublime🤣. This company is always very friendly, they seem to have passion which a lot of places lack. Overall, an extremely fun room that I wish I could play over again. Definitely recommend!!!

Escaped with 4. The dog theme is super unique and immersive (the physical room as well), which made it very fun. The puzzles were very thematic and everything felt relevant but also special. Many times the puzzles did double-duty by adding to the story. Pretty straight forward but there are a fair amount of puzzles, maybe on the easier side but still felt entertaining. Apparently this is a staff favorite and I can see why!

Dogs Days was a fairly traditional escape room with fun codes to crack and unique clues to decipher. It was a very fun experience and a perfect balance of challenging yet doable and entertaining for the whole group. We absolutely love Prototype Escape Games!
