We played as a family, two adults two kids middle school age. This was a lot of fun. Very unique and loved the physical challenges. The shore theme is very cute and great for families. It was challenging and fun.

A lovely little room - played with 3 others who had played before / 3 who hadn’t. Theme was hit perfectly, and puzzles were a good mix of dexterity and mental. Few surprises on puzzles too! Perfect for larger groups.

Gameplay

Standard lock-and-code / lock-and-key style puzzles with a few surprises. Good amount of dexterity puzzles as well, as you might expect with the theme. Well-balanced.

Atmosphere

Simple set design, but clearly made with love / felt perfect for the area. Potentially a little dark.

Customer service

Warm and welcoming staff - however, GM did give a clue that was already done when asked. Quickly remedied with correct clue though.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Unique theme with some nicely done puzzles.

Story

Story of getting enough points for a prize / getting the prize key from the pizza parlor. Represented well in-game.

Difficulty

Medium

Puzzles were pretty standard fair, with one particular puzzle that we got stuck on by missing something small. Dexterity tests were simplistic as well.

Game tech

Mechanical

Lock-and-code / key style, with one high-tech element that was a lovely surprise.

Nice for bigger groups, with two pretty independent paths. I’d say 2 could do it but it’d be tough - 4+ recommended.

It’s a boardwalk.

There are a couple small things where dexterity is involved - however, they aren’t strenuous at all.

Accessibility

Two areas where ducking is relevant, and dexterity games where throwing is required. Color blindness for one puzzle.

Easy to find location

Yes

Lots of big signs.

Parking

Easy

Standard strip mall parking.

This is a super fun room down at the Jersey Shore! If you love the boardwalk and arcade games, you definitely have to check this room out. I loved all of the puzzles and thought there were plenty of puzzles to do! Everything about the room was well thought out and it is good for the whole family! It may even make you hungry! Lol

The room is a great family night out at the boardwalk! The staff at East coast are always kind and helpful and have worked hard to make this room a fun experience. Lots of space for plenty of people and a good amount of puzzles and challenges for everyone to take part in!

Nice set, fun and different, but game flow wasn’t the best. GM was nice, no hints or nudges unless you ask for them.

Really great atmosphere and fun physically interactive puzzles! My husband and I had a great time and ALMOST did it with no hints until the very last second where we spent 10 minutes in the last clue and finally just had to ask for time sake. Still had a BLAST though with some great flow and amazing puzzles.

The puzzles and the set decor in the room really made it feel like you were down at the boardwalk. It’s a good mix of different types of puzzles that rely on different strengths. There are a lot of puzzles that you can have kids do that will be super fun and engaging while the adults work on the harder ones. The staff were incredibly welcoming as well. Overall, a great experience!
