great hosting
Probably the weakest game at this venue but there are still some clever puzzles that elevate it. The space is a little plain but adequate and this was a good way to spend an hour, we escaped with roughly 45 minutes remaining.

It uses a smallish room, with decent but simple decorations - lots of padlocked furniture with faux-bookshelf wallpaper. Puzzles are almost entirely linear, and make extensive use of laminated paper clues. The Masonic theme is followed consistently but with a great deal of escape room logic, and while none of the puzzles were t...
A solid but uninspiring game from the Escape franchise. While there were no big negatives in the room, ultimately there was nothing that got me excited.
Whilst Da Vinci is perhaps an overused theme, we warmed to this room quickly and found it the best of the three on the premises. Puzzles were just right for difficulty. Decent fun.
