Summary

  • Recommend 3-4 escape artists
  • Scary but not too much
  • Good use of technology
  • Puzzles were not difficult

After doing the first room at Mission Escape Room, Escape the Hydeout, the newbies that I was with wanted to do another escape room. They felt they were ready for a horror-style escape room. When you enter the escape room, you find yourself in a dimly lit kitchen and are given one small flashlight.

The puzzles were not complex, but the scary environment made it difficult to think. The technology used in the room was triggered to make the room have the haunted aspect. 

I was impressed with human props and how well the room was decorated.

It was easy to follow the storyline associated with the room. It was a minimal aspect of the room. The main objective of the game was to find out what happened to the victims and to get the F out. 

This room is good if you want good scare that's not too much.
