This was one of the funnest parts of our trip! The room we did was outstanding and very well designed. It was also GIANT! I wish we would have brought a larger group with us because I feel like the experience would have been even better with more people. The clues and puzzles were diverse and fun! We have done multiple escape rooms in the past and the secrets hidden in this room were much more elaborate and extensive than the rooms we have done in other cities (and you can't beat the price...a room like this in Kansas City would cost at least double.) It's also in a GREAT location! Just wandering in the area we managed to find tons of great shopping, a chocolate factory and a ton of places to eat! You could easily spend a day there! It even looked like they had a party room!!! We will definitely be back to try the rest of the rooms next time we are in Brooklyn!

We ended up having to call for back up aka get help. The guy couldn't find the clue either! Come to find out, the key we needed was not there. We spent so much time looking for that key, we lost in the final few minutes of the game. I thought they could've given us extra time since it was their fault the clue we needed wasn't there ‍ Other than that, we had a great time! Don't arrive late and don't use your cellphone inside the rooms.

They have private party rooms where they'll bring in pizza and drinks and more for your kiddos. 2. There's built-in entertainment like mini-golf (obviously), a surprisingly extensive arcade complete with tickets to win and redeem for plastic that your kids will love and you will hate. 3. The staff is seriously on point. I'm telling you, they have headsets! They're communicating in real time about where everyone in your party should be, and what needs to be happening. I appreciate you people. 4. There's a BAR FOR THE ADULTS. I can't stress this enough. You know how parents just stand around awkwardly while their kids scream and play and run? Well, it's better when you have a drink in your hand. They've got a solid beer selection, frozen rum punch and pina coladas (see: shipwrecked), and some bottom shelf liquor that the bartender looked into my friend's (the parent of the birthday girl) dead eyes and offered him a heavier pour on the house. This is going to be a staple in my life for the next five years or so, and although I'm sure I'll get tired of it, at least there's a bar.

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!

We met at Baked Melissa on 42nd street. The guide gave us instructions. I was late so I did not hear the instructions. The goal of the race is to find items on a list (movie poster, triplets, slide, dog with clothes, flag, big clock, guy with mets cap, bus driver), 3 out of 6 pictures (daily news globe, muppets at fab schwartz , apple at hudson river park etc) and a find of (12 different flowers or 6 different vendors that sell meet). In addition, for extra point, you had to check in with the guide at times square and if you choose to perform a specific task. The event was tiring. We had to run towards the end of the race to get everything. My team won of course. However, given that we paid $35 for the race. I expected more like water to be provided, nutrional snacks a the end of the race, some sort of metrocard for public transportation and better prize (i got a plastic medal and t-shirt).

    4 stars only because we had a Dealist (think Groupon) discount and the event cost us $20 rather…read morethan $35 - otherwise probably wouldn't have been worth it. All in all a fun day, took us all over the city to places we'd never been. Also exposed me to the bus system which I've rarely taken.. pretty reliable & runs regularly (should I be yelping the metro system..?). Pretty well organized. We got plenty of e-mails beforehand letting us know how we should prepare (though they were a little ambiguous on the metro day pass- were they providing it or did we have to buy it? Good thing we bought ours just in case). On they day of they ran pretty smoothly, although registration was a bit of a bottleneck with one person doing each task (sign in, name tags, handing out paperwork). There were lots of staff though and they were all really friendly and seemed to really enjoy running the event, which made us enjoy it more. At then end they came around and scored our pictures by going through them with us (liked that - so we could make sure we got credit for all the items we found), and had us load our pictures on a computer being projected so we saw a slideshow with everyone's photos as they were scoring. Funny to see how creative some people were. Would've been nice to have a little bit of food at the start or at the end - annoying that we were basically expected to stick around and order Dave & Busters food since that was the start/end location. It's ok, we just ordered a small appetizer (as we were STARVING) and went off to a restaurant actually worth our time for dinner.

    We just came back from Shelter R. I had high hopes because of the prior reviews, and the two stars…read moreare for set design - it looked really cool when we walked in! Unfortunately, it went downhill from there and this was probably the worst escape room we've experienced (we've done roughly 20). The room was very dark throughout (for atmosphere), but to the extent that we had to use the flashlight on our phones the entire time - which quickly became annoying. There were very, very few puzzles to solve and they had to be done one at a time. Several puzzles were broken - we literally wouldn't be able to see the relevant information because a screen was too scratched up or a telescope wasn't adjusted properly, and it really takes the fun out of things when you have to ask for the code you're supposed to be seeing because you know where it is but actually can't decipher it. There were very few context clues and the room was actually quite sparse. The communication with the game master was broken and we were given a walkie talkie which went in and out, and half the time we had to ask them to repeat themselves over and over. Don't know if the other rooms are any better, but I don't think we'd go back based on our experience of Shelter R.

The family owned and run couple greeted us were warm friendly and explained the rules clearly how to play. Soon we were in a dungeon and had to WORK TOGETHER with our group to survive. From the level of detail with the design to the actual puzzles it was clear a lot of thought was put into each puzzle and there were multiple rooms. They are watching in case there's an issue or if you request a hint and give you time updates. The five of us didn't survive but we did make it to the last room and the owner actually still let us complete/showed us the puzzles. (We definitely needed more time lol). The only cons is better signage when u get to Industry City (the puzzle starts upon arrival to the building lol) and the speaker when the host was speaking was a little muffled. Net net if your looking for a unique experience, party, event this is a HIGHLY reccomended experience to do with a group and worth travelling to.
