The Wizard Realm

An absolute must for any Harry Potter fan! Super interactive with unique puzzles and technology!

We really enjoyed this one! My only nitpick is how strictly linear the puzzles are, but they were creative. I loved the progress meter they had instead of a classic countdown and we had a great game master! Would definitely come back to try the other rooms here.

Decor of the room was very nicely done to keep with the wizard theme. It had a good mix of locks/codes and tactile puzzles. Some transitions and flow between puzzles were not as seamless as we'd hoped, but not fully sure if that was an "us" problem or a puzzle problem.

Came here for a friends birthday, we had a great time with the fun wizard themed puzzles!

Fun "wizard" (read Harry Potter without using the IP) themed room. Puzzles were fun and interesting. Room was a pretty linear making it harder to divide and conquer (rarely even two puzzles active at the same time) and many puzzles require two people (one to interact and one to relay information). Room doesn't give you anything to write things down with, so I used notes on my phone to record a longer sequence I needed to remember. There are some video screens with clues or are interactive to a puzzle (and are decently themed to the game). But they are rather slow. One is just a longer than it needs to be loop you might ended up watching multiple times and others change as you interact and there is a decent delay before you can see the results. The puzzles themselves were fun and entertaining, but none were particularly difficult. The bigger challenge was knowing if the puzzle was active yet, and when you completed it that you had it right (some have sound effects when completed or even while interacting and others do not). One puzzle we did correctly three times before it worked (because the sound didn't play consistently, perhaps too fast or slow).

I really enjoyed this room and my only issues are nitpicky. Let's get those out of the way. On several puzzles there is nothing that signals you solved it. I thought I had successfully solved something but nothing seemed to happen and I didn't hear anything that indicated it opened. On another puzzle, we were solving it correctly but apparently we weren't allowing the sound effect to go to indicate we did the step correctly. If those were corrected this would be a neat perfect room. The setting is beautiful and really has you feeling that you were in the middle of the wizarding world. Most of the puzzles were unique and one of a kind that i had never encountered in other rooms. Kudos to one puzzle that centers around the moving portraits in the books. Loved it. They also have a unique countdown system that I loved. Instead of watching the time countdown, the counter shows you what percentage of the room you have finished and beside that it shows you percentage of the room you should have finished at that point. Please give this room a try! If you're a fan of escape rooms or a fan of the boy wizard, you'll have a great time!

awesome room!!! i loved it! it was whimsical and well-done, interesting puzzles and some good stumpers!!! awesome gm--super recommend!!!

my dad and i did this room together while on a road trip. this was my first time doing a room with just my dad, and we escaped with about 17 minutes left!! we needed a hint to get started, and one or two in the middle, but overall most things made sense to us. the experience started before we even got into the room. we actually "forged" acceptance letters that the employee added to the room before letting us in. that was a fun little touch that made me even more excited for the puzzle solving to begin. the timer was weird: instead of an actual timer, it was a progress counter. if the expected progress reached 100%, your hour was up. it was definitely a different system than i've seen before, and it had its pros and cons. at the beginning the expected progress was around 30% and we were still at 0%, making me panic a bit. eventually we worked our way up and achieved 60% progress when that was expected, and escaped when the expected progress was at 70%. if i'm ever in town again, i would definitely go back to this place.

A really cool room that encompasses everything in the wizarding world that you'd love to see. A great use of props and space, however this does lead to some accessibility issues if you have trouble stepping over high ledges or fitting through a tight-ish space Some puzzles in this one require a little bit of a brain burn to get through, and overthinking and stop you from getting out of this one, but overall it was a fun escape.

We did not escape with just the two of us but we enjoyed the room. Lots of puzzles that triggered things to open. Used a few clues
