Clocked In - Vlad D. Hanson's Cocktail Party

This was our second room here in Denmark (and at this location) and we're very glad we came back for it. The room was fun and full of great puzzles that made us think. Also, it is always fun when you set a record in a room.

Price:$$$$35 per person

Theme:★★★★Nicely done - great use of the space, and great props throughout to support the story.

Quality:★★★★Put together well, although we struggled with one puzzle because we weren't sure what to do with it (we thought it may not work, but turns out we didn't know how to use it).

Difficulty:★★★★I loved the challenges these puzzles presented - I will just say that a couple of these really tested our skills, and that is all I feel comfortable sharing without giving away puzzles. But very well planned and a great variety.

Fun:★★★★This room has such a great story and it just so freaking neat inside. Some of the props and puzzles just made me smile.

Clocked In - The Mystery at Secret Warehouse

When in Denmark - yes, will we try an escape room! And we are so glad that we did - this was really a nice time for us and a good chance to talk with the owner presented itself, too. The room itself was very well done and very fun - there was a puzzle in here that Evan had a great time with, and I agree that it is the only time I've seen that puzzle in a room and thought it was a creative use of items. We enjoyed this room so much, we returned later in the day for their harder room.

Price:$$$$35 per person

Theme:★★★I admit that before going into the room, I wasn't sure at all what to expect, but it ended up being awesome and helping tell the story.

Quality:★★★★Everything worked extremely well, and you can tell they really care about the experience you have and making it the best they can.

Difficulty:★★This was a good room, with enough to keep it interesting, but not so hard that you get frustrated. It was also nice that when we arrived, the owner talked with us and moved us from an easier room to this one.

Fun:★★★This was a lot of fun - the theme to the room was perfect, and the puzzles were fun to work on.

Norwegian Cruise Lines - Escape the Big Top

This is one of the oddest escape experiences I've had - an escape game with 100 people (10 teams of 10). Each team got the same clues and same puzzles and raced to break the spell using the clues on their table and those around the room. When we walked in, I was skeptical, but really each group was so wrapped up in their own solution that it wasn't a problem. Our team won and broke the spell for everyone - we had a great randomly assigned team for this adventure.

Price:N/AN/A

Theme:★★It is hard to really talk about this because it was an escape room setup in a bar on a cruise ship. However, they did the best they could in the space they had.

Quality:★★★This was pretty neat - we only had one broken thing, and it was a red herring so it didn't matter.

Difficulty:★★Some of these puzzles were super quick, and some took a bit more effort. We had a great team who dove right into it.

Fun:★★★★The environment was very hectic and competitive and fun. With a circus theme, it would be hard not to be.

A Room With A Clue - The Treehouse

This is a fun location and there is a lot to do in the area - dinner before the room, music in the bars nearby. It also lead to a lot of walk-ins, which is a nice thing I hadn't seen at most escape rooms. The lobby is fun and the staff is friendly. And the room was a good time - even with the difficult puzzles we enjoyed the experience.

Price:$$$29 per person

Theme:★★★★★This was so nicely done - you really feel like a kid would love this type of tree house. Even I would like to spend time in a room like this.

Quality:★★★Nicely done - everything worked and was well designed. Our difficulties (especially with on of the puzzles) were our own skill levels.

Difficulty:★★★A couple of the puzzles were quite challenging - nothing was easy in this room. But it was all doable and played to the skills of everyone in the room.

Fun:★★★This room is just fun - the theme sets that up from the start. We had a good time and enjoyed the theme, the puzzles, and the couple that joined us in the challenge.

Red Door Escape Room Plano - The Ruins

...I have liked their rooms at the location in Grapevine, so I was really hoping to enjoy this room as much. Overall, it was okay, but it was also very much a mystery what to do at various points. Luckily, we were all willing to try things multiple ways to come up with a solution, because I can recall at least two puzzles that we had to try a lot even after getting clues. I loved the decor and the person running to room for us, and the two folks who joined us were great. But overall...I just left a little let down.

Price:$$$28 per person (coupon available)

Theme:★★★★This room looks good, especially when you hear how much time they spent making some of the elements in it. This is one of the better looking ruins-related rooms we've been in.

Quality:★★★Everything was in great shape when we went (around opening of the room), although some items were unclear what to do.

Difficulty:★★★★This was hard for us for a couple of reasons. First, some of the puzzles really didn't make sense or match up well to clues given in the room or from the staff. Second, we tend to miss hidden things.

Fun:★There were a couple of puzzles that were pretty fun, but overall this experience relied on too many things that were confusing and frustrating.
