Soooo much fun!! We were hesitant to do this because we thought, because its our first time, that being with strangers we would hinder their progress, and possibly frustrate them with our incompetence. When we arrived, we were surprised to find this place has private bookings!
Everything was so well designed, and visually appealing. We had a BLAST! Of course we were so inexperienced that it took us forever and thankfully hints were dropped to us throughout the game. We were even given extra time to complete it and woo-hoo, when we did it was a celebration. The visuals were well thought out and just made the game that much more fun!

Kyle the Game Master was passionate about Escape Rooms and the play itself. Thanks Kyle!
In all, it was a really great, incredibly fun and a good challenging way to spend an hour of your weekend....
