Introduction:

You and your friends have just attended a late night gathering located on the outskirts of the city. On your way home, you made a wrong turn and ended up on an unnamed road. The road is pitch black and your vehicle ends up running over an unknown object, causing a flat tire. There is no cell reception and no other vehicles in sight. One of your friends notices a dim light in the distance located in the midst of the trees, so you decide to go search for help. Your group then approaches a small, secluded cabin. To you, it seems as if nobody is home, so you enter the cabin, but once inside, the door has locked you in.

Can you escape before...

Summary

Kyle and Nicolette were very sweet and caring GMs. They were very keen on our needs as we were a bit thirsty and hungry during our escape experience. 

Let's start with the positive! This escape room was not scary nor creepy. It was quite family-friendly. The room was a good lock-and-key room and if you are into 1st gen-ish rooms, you will like this room.

We wanted to like this room, however, there are many short-comings. Some puzzles were challenging and creative but we didn't see the connection some puzzles had to the story. The book of all the previous "victims" was a cool touch.

Overall, this escape room is a lock-and-key room. It's not a favorite of mine, however, I appreciate the set and the experience. Thank you Kyle and Nicolette!
