The concept  was very original and really fun.  Our GM was super funny and did a great job staying in character.  Anything with adult humor gets a thumbs up from me.

Not a drag, rather a dazzle-tastic-super-robotica experience

An authentic, well thought, brain hurting and fun experience. Mitch, our host, was in character throughout and really helped elevate the game and make it totally immersive and a joy to play.

The owners also donate a percentage of the ticket value to a local LGBT+ organisation which is another positive. Well done.

Being a superhero has never been so much fun (or revealing). You're gonna love it.

My friends and I went to escape rooms every month in the before times, but haven't done any online escape rooms before. This was a great way to get started. Our host (Owen) was very welcoming but also committed to their character when we were in the room. All the puzzles felt achievable and had a clear line of logic connecting Point A to Point B. Great job!

We definitely had a good time doing this room. It was our first online room so there was a bit of initial learning involved but we were soon on a roll. The adult humor was entertaining as was our guide whose avatar was creatively done. We are an experienced escape room team so we had a good sense of how to go about solving puzzles but it was still challenging enough to make us figure things out. The funny moments are still making me laugh hours later as I remember them. Well done Mystery Mansion. Special thanks to our guide who was REALLY GREAT! We were also happy to help support the charity too - a great cause.

Really fun - such a different theme. Loved the adult humour, and there were some really clever unique aspects to the room because you are in charge of a robot.

We loved the thought and energy that went into designing this game, particularly wrt the local drag community.  Lots of good chuckles (of the slightly racy type!).  The GM was super committed to the game, which we really appreciated.  It's a fairly old school set of puzzles, although there are 2 that can be completed in the inventory system (one of which was a bit buggy), but we very much enjoyed them nonetheless.  Definitely recommended for anyone who won't be offended by phrases like "a meaty tuck"!

Super fun, super campy room that hits all the right jokes at the right points, and does a great job with an avatar story. Sort of Agent November cross Miss Jezebel with its own fun sense of style?

Reviews by escape room review sites

The Drag Task Force has five drag queens who are endowed with various superpowers after being struck by lightning.
One of them, Ruby Hyman, was expelled from the DTF after an argument and has now taken revenge on the other by stealing their superpowers. Flo Mingo, the leader of the DTF, has called in our team to stop Ruby and infiltrate her secret hiding place. Flo’s robot sidekick “Flo Bot” is supposed to support us on the mission.
DTF is delightful, campy fun, made even better by the interaction with FloBot. Filled with laughs aplenty, satisfying puzzles, and all the glitz and glamour  I expect from a drag show

Mystery Regina's creativity with their story lines are always very unique (especially the adult humor component). We haven't seen any escape room dare to tap into that territory but we especially enjoy those giggly moments. The remote avatar was a great add on to this innovative set. Without giving away too much, you're able to actually control the avatar with different commands. If you like to be interactive with your avatar and watch/listen to them do silly things, you'll definitely get a kick out of this game. And if you are lucky, the real Flo might even pop in and congratulate you on finishing your mission!

Overall, a brilliant experience and a fun way to spend an evening with friends. I’d recommend this one for anyone up for a laugh, and for such a good cause, why the heck not?!

This was a very .... interesting and crazy experience

We’ve been selected to help the Drag Task Force get their stolen powers back from devious Ruby Hymen.

The game was designed specifically to be played online, through an avatar pretending to be a robot - which, in turns, explains a number of game limitations and helps set some artificial "gates" you'll have to deal with. (...) It won't come off as a surprise if I say the game is also extremely funny. In a case of "laughing with us, not at us", this room is really a "sci-fi superhero room" using the Drag world as a setting rather than a theme.

Overall, Drag Task Force was a fierce theme that brought over an hour of drag puns and comedy to the table. Pushing the boundaries of themes have really allowed a game like this to excel and with a perfect collaboration of the drag queen world and escape room masterminds, it creates something that is unforgettable. Our spoiler free review only touches the tip (steady now) of the experience, and the only way to know more is by booking your game with the Mystery Mansion team.
