My aunt, grandma, and cousin were in town for the weekend, and after returning from our cabin adventures we stopped by to visit. My aunt wanted to get out for a bit and mentioned my cousin might want to do an escape room, so we came here and had a good time. We've done a couple of other rooms here (Dr. Gene Etics and Game Over) and have a good time. We are sad to know that this room is being replaced - I think it might be my favorite of the ones we've done here.

Xcape Adventures - Dr. Gene Etics
For our second visit to Xcape Adventures, we checked out some genetics. This had one of the coolest physical challenges I've done. It was a pain in the but, but creative - you'll notice it since it takes up a whole wall when you enter. These guys really care a lot and want to make this a good experience, but the room was a little abused. I think this one takes the prize for the most rooms in an escape room.
Price:$$20 per person
Theme:★★★Loved this theme - very well designed and had some great surprises in store for us.
Quality:★★Again, like their other room, there was a lot of work but also some broken things. We have to get help a couple times for this.
Difficulty:★★This was about average difficulty, but had a few very creative puzzles that we haven't seen since.
Fun:★★★There were some very interesting challenges in here was a fun experience.

Xcape Adventures - Game Over
This was my first escape room and it got me hooked. This is one of the original escape rooms in the Dallas area. I was quite surprised to find them in Mesquite which is not a central location. Ellie and Fred had done one before and brought us along for this one. I hear that they have decided not to stress the tie in with Pixels. They mentioned that it was done in partnership with Sony. I think that its a good idea to avoid pushing the tie in. This one is still very creative and challenging anyway.
Price:$$20 per person
Theme:★★★This was a fun concept, but based on a movie (Pixels) that none of us had seen.
Quality:★★It is clear that a lot of effort was put into this, but it wasn't as well put together as some of the other rooms and a couple of puzzles took several tries as a result.
Difficulty:★★After having gone through more escape rooms since this one, I would put the difficulty of this one squarely in the middle. It wasn't the hardest but definitely had a few challenging puzzles in it.
Fun:★★★★We had a lot of fun in this room. It was bright and had challenges to make us think and was quite entertaining.
