Despite going in thinking interactions with actors might be intensely awkward, the exchanges we had felt very comfortable and the actors were great to talk to. Our party did the Heresy 1897 room and will definitely be back for Madness 1917 shortly.

This room is one of the best in the country. You can easily play it over and over again. The…read morepuzzles are great. The set is great. The actors are NEXT LEVEL. The thoughtfulness that's gone into every little detail is very obvious. Just from the intro to the wildly clever way they go over the rules to the MYRIAD OF CHOICES. What you do in the first room dictates what happens in the second room. I'm absolutely blown away with the attention to every detail. What makes it even more wild is that there is so much of this game that many people will never see (because they choose a different option) Stop what you're doing, book both rooms back to back. Then book them again.

General Notes: - There is no countdown/time tracking in the…read moreroom, which I did not mind. In fact I felt more immersed and it was fun to have absolutely no concept of time. - My friends and I did the "Hex of the Chinese Jewelry Box" room. We found this one to be very scavenger-hunt-esque of finding codes, keys, and objects. Few puzzles. - Cheaper on week day than weekend, at least from what I was able to discern from online booking. Cheaper tickets if you book with more people ($50 if less than 6, $45 if 6 for "Hex of the Chinese Jewelry Box" on a Saturday). With the fees, the $45 price is $49, so essentially it's $50 even for the cheaper group fare on a weekend. Pros: For at least the "Hex of the Chinese Jewelry Box", there were multiple rooms to run around in, which was fun and had more space for the 6 of us (vs. one main room). Cons: - There is a host but they go over general rules before entering the room. Once it starts, firstly the main door was kept ajar the whole game, which made it feel less immersive and I'm not sure if that was a mistake or not on the host's part. - There was an introduction audio once we began but it was barely audible to any of us so no one had any idea what was being said. It was the context to the game, and by the end of the game (don't worry, no spoilers) but we were confused if we solved it because we missed the context and the "objective" of what we were doing in the room. - Dim lighting which didn't personally hinder our experience, but I can assume that those with vision impairment could have a more difficult time I would come again if I can book with the cheaper fare and if I confirm there are more puzzles involved in the other rooms.

Oh did it live up more than I had expected that in turn it got me too in a way. Done so many escape rooms and I'll say this was very interactive and well done and designed.

This is probably one of my favorite horror movies so I had very high expectations. They did not let me down. Such an interactive room. Everything decorated down to the tiniest detail, I LOVED the Easter egg nods to the movie that they put in the room. It was creepy, challenging, and the best part was that we escaped! So I was able to see all parts to this room before leaving. Booked a second room when we left. Can't wait to go back!! Suicide Hotel room= Amazing! Very detailed with 1408 Easter eggs everywhere. Escaped. 7 Sinful Pleasures= Hysterical and fun. Escaped. Saint Angelo's Castle= Not my favorite of their rooms thus far. Seemed far less interactive than the previous rooms, not as many puzzles to get out, distracted/inattentive game master, super dark leading to frustration and wasted time. Escaped. **One major complaint of this place: the hints. It seems to take forever to get the attention of the people who are supposed to be watching your game progression. We tried to contact the game master during Saint Angelo's Castle so many times. After no recognition, and then calling out only to realize there was no audio for her to hear us, we resorted to waving our arms around in front of the camera to get any sort of attention. The hints are also not hints in this room, they're merely canned pre-recorded responses. Every time we requested a hint, a recording would come on telling us to do something we had already figured out. It was clear no one was watching our game closely to provide us with anything helpful.

Came here with my team and wow this was unexpectedly fun!…read more Good: - The four challenges were perfect for my team of four, we ended up beating way more challenges than we even expected! - The VIP package was definitely worth it - we got drinks after and a tshirt and it was a great way to cap off our adventure - The bomb experience was kind of fun and scary despite knowing that it was happening upfront - The laser maze was definitely my favorite, it was so fun to jump through the lasers and dodging the moving ones. Kind of felt like being a spy! And was a great workout - We ended up getting one of the top scores of the day and felt like winners - Not just your traditional escape the room, I liked how there were basically 5 in 1! Bad: - The place is a bit quiet and a bit gloomy to hang out in after you're done, but it wasn't a big deal! Overall this was so much fun and definitely recommend this to any team looking for an out of the ordinary team bonding activity!

Overall it was a relatively non-linear escape with decent tech and only 2 combination locks (a big complaint of mine are escape rooms with over reliance on combo locks). My only complaints were that it felt a touch dated and some of the audio cues were hard to hear. Very cool digital tech but the monitors look very aged. It's also fairly dark and we used our phone lights at times. Difficulty 3/5 Tech 4/5 Story/ immersion 4/5 Overall I would put this one in the top 50% of all escape rooms. For nyc I would say it would be in the top quartile.

Probably paying a premium for the location but it's still a good time for a short collaborative group event.

It ended up just being my group and another birthday party which was really fun. The announcer was very nice and the games were CALM AND EASY. Thank god.
