Tallot cards

Summary: game master: 0/10 room 0/10 puzzles: not enjoyable. Waiting room: 10/10 Overall: (hopefully just one) horrendous experience To begin this review, the only possible reason I could ever leave a single, measly, minuscule singular star is because of the waiting room. The waiting room was high quality and gave our party false hopes of a quality experience. Also, the hostess? (I believe that would be the appropriate title.) was very nice and welcoming. Now, to the negative. We were greeted by our game master, Thomas. Thomas was the most useless game master I've ever had the displeasure of meeting. We started the room and quickly were on a roll. But inevitably we got stuck. When we asked for a hint, (specifically on the wine puzzle) he gave us the shortest and most futile response deemed possible. And I quote,"You just add the things to the other things on the wine," now it may seem confusing to the inexperienced viewer, but you have to keep in mind that since this is the hardest puzzle, Thomas obviously just wanted us to tap into our godly omniscience and solve the puzzle with,"you just add the things to the other things on the wine." So when this terrible hint ends up being useless, we ask Thomas to re-explain his thinking processes. So he says,"oh it's too long and complex for me to explain so I'll just tell you the answer." Thomas then tells us the exact methodologies that we have been using to solve this puzzle. We eventually get it with zero help from Thomas. For the next few puzzles either we got it ourselves, or the same ordeal would follow regarding Thomas's dreadful hints. Allow me to take a momentary break from bashing Thomas. Lets focus on the puzzles. The puzzles were terrible. I hated every one of them. It's not that they were too difficult, but it was just frustrating and quite boring. There were no transitional clues in between puzzles and there was no clear methodology to go from clue to clue. I also wasn't a big fan of how automatic everything was. There were no keys to unlock the doors to each room etc. This was probably the most infamous of the puzzles being weird, was the photo below. Here, the door revealing the body was opened randomly. The tallot cards that opened the door weren't even positioned on the table when the door opened. There was also the storage boxes that when I lifted one off the shelf the puzzle was completed. A lot of the puzzles had a seemingly random order. Everything also has to be extremely precise which wasted a lot of time. (The train puzzle sensors were within a fraction of a millimeter) If you've made it this far into the review and are searching for a quality escape room for some good old family fun then take a look at https://theescapegame.com/ they have over 30 locations across the U.S and are people who can actually design properly and hire a quality staff. If you're looking for someone who can manage to do something right, then visit one of their many locations. Another problem with escapeology is the pricing. $40 a head is beyond outrageous. One more thing before I end off, is the fact that they don't even offer a discount for playing again. Please, stay away for your own good. (Edit) I forgot to mention the fact that Thomas wouldn't allot extra time for our experience because,"another party is scheduled to play in 1 hour."

This is us with the fun props after we escaped!

What room is better for 2 lost city or murder mansion?

Mansion Murder is one of our more difficult games, so we'd recommend Lost City - unless you're an escape room pro!

I booked this service many months in advance as a birthday surprise for a little boy.

The morning of reservation Brandy reached to confirm the reservation stating that she wasn't allowed on our beach per the area HOA. She offered a location that was a 10 minute drive away. We had a phone call in which she turned down all options conveniently located for us. I asked her to reach out to the HOA to ensure it indeed was the case this season. She seemed unwilling to find a solution. She offered to cancel our reservation that I put a lot of thought and preparation into coordinating.. she said the situation was no one's fault which it was absolutely on her and the company for not listing our beach as a place that couldn't be chosen and for not validating sooner. I went to the trouble of validating with the beach staff that they could enter our beach and spoke to the HOA. I informed Brandy 40 minutes before our lesson of this and she responded 4 minutes before our lesson time. I requested she meet us for our lesson and her response was that she had another lesson and marriage proposal that day and couldn't meet us. She wasted my time, held up my money as it took many requests to get a refund, and no showed us with no prior warning. Buyer be ware!
