I was afraid to play this room after reading some of the reviews for this experience. I didn't enjoy it as much as the first entry, but I still had a great time. We didn't have Mayor Rob this time around, and I definitely think that impacted our experience. Our host was really receptive to our directions, but didn't engage us as much as we wanted. He felt more like an outsider we were controlling, rather than an active member of our group. He still did a great job though and this is definitely an experience to check out!
This was the first online game I played online when Covid first hit (last year) and it still stands out in my mind. Mayor Rob was fantastic and really made me feel like I had a better time playing online than I would have in person. Really cool features for the inventory system as well!
One of the earliest escape room adaptations during COVID, this one pioneered new ground when it came to letting players enter their own codes and push their own buttons. The narratives tend to be a bit convoluted, but who cares? The interface still makes it feel like you're there: you get a moment of glee whenever you press a button and something happens thousands of miles away.
Bit disappointed with this one after all the hype. I found the inventory system quite clunky and the avatar quite unhelpful / slowing us down a bit. The theme also seemed a bit contrived just to use the cool pun for a room.
Puzzles were ok and some were very different.
The original baseline for 2020 remote games. I'm honestly still in awe of the degree to which this "nothing special in person" game was elevated through its remote adaptation.
As the first remote avatar room that we did, this set the bar pretty high. My favorite aspect was the interactive nature of the inventory system! Mayor Rob was fun, and the story and set were both quite cute and well done. A nice variety of puzzles, and family-friendly. We had some issues with the initial booking, but Rob provided great customer service to resolve the issue and was also very responsive to some minor suggestions we made after the game. A great experience overall.
We played this before the owner's overhaul, and nonetheless had a really good time. Some clever puzzles, with good adaptation to the online environment. Not quite up to Ready Mayor One standards, but definitely worth playing.
The crème de la crème of online games. Excellent GM, really good (interactive!) inventory system. An all around a fun game.
