Mark as done to rate

June 1924, Berlin. The city suffers from a heat wave, but even the cooler nights don’t bring relief: a serial killer, called „The beast of Berlin“ is targeting young women in the dark streets of the city. Detective Ernst Gennat has a horrible suspicion: Could the murderer come from his own team? He plans to interrogate the suspect and wants you, as a member of a special detective force, to search the suspects office for proof of his crime during that time. The gripping story with real historical background takes you right into the heart of Berlin in the roaring, but dark Twenties.

This room gets a really high rating from me due to its atmosphere. The furniture and all props fit it perfectly into the setting and time of the story of the room. What stood out additionally was the smell added to certain corners/ things, different temperatures and the sound design in addition to the “usual” lighting effects you find in other top rooms. Also: no cameras nor speakers nor any other type of modern tech was visible anywhere but extreme well hidden in decoration. Perfect immersion. We had some scare moments so to very realistically looking props which was of course what we came for :) - so the room fully delivered its promises!

A very good escape room where the ambience makes you feel like you're not alone in the room. It is not very scary, but you might be on edge during a good part of the game. The décor was once again sublime, and the riddles were very fun and fitting in the theme.

All in all, this was very well done. Puzzles made complete sense and flowed very naturally.

Production design is incredible, puzzles were challenging and the twists and turns are phenomenal. Games in both English in German make this accessible to locals and tourists. Cannot recommend enough!

I play-tested the old version 1 of The Beast back in around 2014. „The Beast of Berlin“ immersed the players into a detailed and accurate setting with interesting puzzles that move the players through a thrilling adventure

Wir haben diesen Raum zu viert gespielt. Super Design des Raumes, sehr stimmig zum Thema. Wir hatten sehr viel Spaß - in unserer Runde war es unser 1. gemeinsames Spiel und das hat super funktioniert. Haider war ein toller Gamemaster - so waren wir auch super eingestimmt auf den Raum. Die Rätsel waren gut und zum Ende gab es eines, welches auch für uns neu war. Wir waren jedenfalls sehr gut unterhalten.

"Beast of Berlin" tells the story of a murderer, and we, as players, need to catch him. It's a concept that has been used in many escape rooms before, but "The Room" has absolutely convinced me. The puzzles were difficult (in my opinion, the hardest room from "The Room - Berlin"), and I loved them. There were so many moments of "Wait, does that really work?" or "Haha, it was really back there!" The room was extremely satisfying, though challenging. The sound design stood out positively to me, I was really afraid at one point (even though the room had no actors!). This effect was achieved through perfect lighting, sound, and object placement, and I am thrilled. The game masters were, as always, fantastic! 10/10 must play.

Beast of Berlin is a more classic room in the best sense of the word. Although I wouldn't describe it as a horror room, a very exciting atmosphere is built up here as the game progresses. A really great experience.

8/10 The narrative of this room follows you through out in the most perfect way. Beautiful antiques, set pieces, and realistic props all add to the incredible production. The puzzles can fall flat in some places but overall the flow of this room is spot on. The hair on your arms will stand up from the creepy atmosphere as you brave your way through this game.
