Mission Escape Games - Escape the Hydeout

This was a great experience from start to finish. We walked into the building and met another group who was to join up with us playing a game of Jenga and got along right from the start. The room was very well done, from the theme to the puzzles. We really liked how well the puzzles went with the theme and didn't appear to just be added to have a puzzle. We probably did a little more moving around of things than needed, but in the end made it out with time to spare.

Price:$$$28 per person

Theme:★★★★★Awesome theme. The idea was well thought out and well implemented, and the puzzles really fit into the them.

Quality:★★★Everything was in good shape and in working order.

Difficulty:★★★Very neat, with puzzles tying into the theme and a reasonable about of thinking required.

Fun:★★★★★We had a great time in this room - in large part because the theme was great, as were the people we teamed up with.

OMEscape - Room X

The design behind this room was great and adds elements to the game that would (in groups of more than 2) really add to the challenge and fun of the game. We would have liked to try it without the adjustments they made for our small group, as we made it out quite quickly with the modifications in place. Either way, it was fun and there were some neat things to play with. A couple of the puzzles were harder because we didn't think about a few things (a theme for us this day was our lack of observation skills). But this was a great time and if we make it back to NYC we'd definitely do another room here.

Price:$$$$38 per person

Theme:★★We have to admit to not knowing what the them really was for this room because we didn't pay very good attention to that. Whoops...

Quality:★★★★In great shape and very well organized. We had a few issues with one puzzle, but even that we were able to make work.

Difficulty:★★This was great, although I suspect different when you have more than two people. They adjusted the room for us because were were such a small group.

Fun:★★★We enjoyed how the puzzles worked in this game quite a bit, and there were some fun things to play with. We also really like how one of the items was delivered to us.
