This room was probably our worst escape room experience thus far, and really it isn't so much the fault of the room but the employees that interacted with us. We got pretty far to the end and then just couldn't open something even though we had the right code. After fifteen minutes of trying. And this isn't a type of lock we've never opened before, so when the employee told us that we were just doing it wrong and wouldn't show us how that was the case, it was really annoying. And then he just kept poking at us. In any case, given that I have opened this type of lock both before, and since, and there were instructions on the wall, and he slipped us more instructions under a door, we aren't convinced that we were the issue here. And if we were (again, doubtful) then the employee definitely should have handled this better. I think that even though we didn't get out, we could have been okay with that (we've lost other rooms) if the employee hadn't been a jerk about it or showed us what we missed.
Price:$$$30 CAD per person
Theme:★★★★This is actually pretty neat - some parts made us have bits of adrenaline and were just neat. This was perhaps the most technologically interesting room we've done.
Quality:★The first parts were fine, other than it being clear people tried to open things that shouldn't be. However, spending fifteen minutes trying to do the same thing only to be told we don't know how to use a lock (see the number of rooms we've done to clear that up) was a bit annoying.
Difficulty:★★The puzzles in this room were not hard, but keeping from doing something wrong with them was an exercise in futility. The hardest thing was using some of the codes, not the puzzles.
Fun:★This was so frustrating that even though some parts were fine, debacles at the end made this overall a pretty big let down.
