No Escape: The Haunted Toy Store

Without exaggeration, THE WORST ESCAPE ROOM WE'VE EVER DONE! It wasn't even fully built!

Hard-to-find entrance led to stairs down to a plain white basement (no decorations), where the "games master" was just a guy on a laptop and the room's entrance was just a plain, unpainted plywood door!

Room looked worse than something you could throw together for a DIY escape room at home, including cheap toys that looked like they'd been picked up at a flea market. One mechanical doll had a button that caused it to start thrashing about and kicking its leg against the wall, leading the game master asking what all the banging was about (seems like he didn't even know his own props!!)

Some puzzles were completely illogical. Example: 3 to the power of 2. That must be 9, right? WRONG! It means that the 2nd digit is 3. How does that make ANY sense?

After two sub-rooms it just "ended". There was no story and it didn't feel haunted or immersive in any way. My friends paid for my ticket as a birthday gift and I wish they hadn't. A year later, we still joke and laugh about how terrible this room was, ESPECIALLY given the exceptionally high price tag.

Please go LITERALLY ANYWHERE ELSE!

Honestly a little disappointed by the haunted toy store,

The room was ok although it looked more like a weird kids bedroom than a store,

Some of the clues were far fetched & just confusing like dial buttons looking exactly like hob buttons but no, that’s not the clue, two of the first boxes you see when you start the game are in fact opened at the very end of the game (so you feel like you missed something until the very end & waste time on it), many times we unlocked something but didn’t really know what, some of the labels are hardly readable and colors hardly recognizable because the light is so dimmed, and the do not touch signs are written in the same way than clues.
