More of a treasure hunt or immersive experience than a true escape room. There is one element of a traditional escape room here where you solve a basic puzzle to get the code for a lock, otherwise you are solving crosswords,  cyphers, anagrams and the sort, and rewarded with information and/or a stamp for doing so. The real life prison setting and live actors were fun for the first half but the fairly basic puzzles and the arrangement of the experience (you solve and hunt in many shared spaces used by visitors to the prison) means this is not the best game for escape room enthusiasts.
