Reviews by escape room review sites

I've been a fan of the design aspect of the "Break In" series. It's so much fun to "peel" down each layer as we play through the game. My favorite saying to Brandon during the game is: "Are we ready to peel yet?" This could be a lovely activity to do family, especially kids. The puzzles felt too difficult though and sometimes took away from that gratification. I think my favorite puzzle was probably the cow one. It stuck to the theme, slid in some humor and was quite easy to "spot" but gave us a cool reveal moment. I love to see some adjustment on the difficulty level for puzzles to cover a wider range of audience as this is definitely a cool concept that we haven't seen used anywhere before.

Break In Area 51 comfortably sits among the standout mass-produced tabletop escape games. This game was a gem. Area 51 humorously told the tale of an alien who’d crashed to Earth and needed to retrieve their spacecraft to escape this primitive rock. We enjoyed experiencing that story.
