Survive the Night

We came last month with a group of friends for a birthday celebration. Going in The staff were friendly and there’s plenty of tables to wait at. Our group chose the haunted village and it was so cool! Really creepy and well decorated. The puzzles were difficult- We were one of the lucky ones that solved it in the nick of time! Be sure to arrive early!

The staff, venue and concept are great. The flaw is a big flaw: This place only has large games and only allow large groups joined with strangers unless you go with a large group yourself of 12. Is the size of the venue really a feature? Not if you are with strangers who could dominate your fun. I’ve been to two other escape rooms and finished having a great time. Here I got to participate with the solving of one puzzle, sort of because of the confusion of playing with a group of eight 25 year old guys quickly finishing all of the games without conversing with us. They wouldn’t even slow down to tell us what they’d solved or hadn’t solved. Everyone running around. No communicating because of the “design” in the dark and forced groups of strangers. We wasted a lot of time just trying to find something that had not been solved. With only half the time of the game over these guys decided to take a cheat clue for the room we (people not in their group of eight guys) had spend some time on and we’re enjoying. We were pleading for them not to take the clue since we had 30 mins left. The clue was too helpful and the puzzle solved immediately by the 8 dominating guys given the clue who did not share it. Suggestions: 1) It wasn’t always obvious what had already been solved. Find a way as an operator to make this obvious. 2). Make a smaller escape room that allows smaller private groups. 3) If the escape operators refused to take “cheat hints” when there is half the game left and only one puzzle to solve, that would be nice. Your “time competitiveness board” encourages some people to end it early and if they are people who don’t care about the rest of the groups fun, That sucks. We were already not a top score. They just didn’t care. Maybe they are just wealthy and 30$ for 30 minutes of entertainment is just okay. Plus 30 minutes is hardly “a night out”. Conclusion: Hit or miss. You might waste your time and money and leave feeling annoyed.

Fantastic! We went two days in a row! Monica was so friendly and helpful, she set us up for the 50% coupon after and we used it on another game. The map is well played out, very large and good puzzles. You have to go back and forth through the maze with a lantern, but it was very unique and fun! I love the fact that you have to hide from the zombie or vampire, they never actually found us as we hid too well! Definitely will be back!

Loved every moment. The entire atmosphere had my heart pumping. Would definitely go back for more. In the adventure we took on, it felt like a maze where something was chasing you, always watching your back while keeping all the details in mind.

Great place for a larger group - especially if you've all done escape rooms before. You will probably be scared at some point if it is your first time - even if it is your second time. But once you get into the swing of things , you and your group will really have a blast. This is a terrific place!
