So fun! A cool new place to go. We were a bit misled by our operator...opening a door, then telling us to ignore it, as if it wasn't part of the challenge, but it was. Also some of the clues were pointless; you spent time on them for nothing. Not to make excuses, but we did waste about half our time on pointless clues and being misled. A fun experience though!

I had much higher hopes for this place. It’s upstairs and the interior looks very worn down—ripped sofas, patchy fixes, and even outlets that looked poorly repaired. The bathroom was genuinely disgusting. Our booking was 5–6, but they weren’t ready to start until around 5:20, which already put the experience off on the wrong foot. The bigger issue was how the game was run and designed. During the rules/debrief, the game master told us not to mess with the walls, floors, or ceiling. But we ended up stuck in the first room far longer than we needed to be because a key progression point involved an area we were essentially told not to interact with. On top of that, comments during the game made it seem like part of that area was staff-only/maintenance rather than something we should treat as gameplay, which caused confusion and wasted time. There were also broken/damaged items (clearly from previous wear) that were misleading, because it wasn’t obvious what was intended to be used versus what was simply broken. That added to the frustration. Overall, the hint system and flow didn’t help. When we asked for guidance, we were directed toward things that didn’t meaningfully connect to progressing or escaping, and a lot of items in the room never ended up being relevant. The whole experience felt unpolished and poorly managed, and I wouldn’t recommend it.

First I want to start off by saying my husband and I have done 4 escape rooms before this one. We recruited 2 of our friends that have never done one. We did the room Taken, and hands down one of our favorite ones so far. The game master Kiana was so cool, fun, bubbly. I dont want to spoil the room itself, but I highly recommend doing that one. For 4 people I felt like it was a good amount. Not saying 6 wouldn't be, but for parts of it. I felt like couples of 2 worked better. We escaped with just 3 or 4 hints with 6:20 something left on the clock. Not going to lie under 20 minutes I was under sure we were going to be able to pull it off. After getting a hint we started to work more quickly through some of the other pieces and it started to become real we might actually get out. Highly recommend this escape room, and Ft Wayne escape.

So the puzzles are good, but it is dirty..... The place needs a good vacuum, a solid dusting and some of the props could use an updating, which is sad bc that means people were rude and hard on the stuff. Buuuuuuuut.

First, I had some vouchers that were expired and they were so gracious to not only allow me to use them but made my daughter’s 13th birthday amazing! Aiden gave the girls some extra clues throughout the experience. Although they didn’t complete the challenge, they loved doing the room. Thank you for hosting 9 rowdy fun girls!!!!
