I recently tried the 'Undead Outbreak' room, and it was amazing. As someone who’s done quite a few escape rooms, I can honestly say this was the most impressive one yet. The experience was so unexpected and immersive, with puzzles that were challenging but perfectly fit the theme. I’ll be back to try another room soon! :)
Played Derailed. We are avid players and like very challenging games. This is the first time we have played any of the game rooms in Charleston. A few special components, but done less than ideal aspects as well. Pros: completely immersive - you are on a train. The related light, sound, and movement are incorporated. This game requires teamwork and communication more than most other escape rooms. Your game starts with your group divided. unique set up for game play. unique puzzles and several puzzles were very creative that we hadn't seen before. There’s a 2-Stephen’s, disarm the bomb and stop the train. Very creative. This was an excellent combo of novel components and if the “cons” were fixed this would be a 5 star game for sure. Another plus, our guide was very personable. Cons: the game wasn't at l00% and has room for overall improvement. Without giving things away…1 puzzle was finicky (game master had to come work on it mid-game); at least 2-3 puzzles that sequenced together were not included in our game bc a lever had been previously broken. Consequently that sequence of puzzles was out of commission and not included. (Bummer to not have the extra puzzles, they sounded cool.) Imo, beyond the finicky puzzle and the out of commission sequence, 2 additional puzzles could have been improved. This combination of less than ideal game play is the main reason for a 3 rating. We asked for 2 clues at 2 different times; both times we were provided direct answers to solve the particular "puzzle" vs hints to guide our puzzle solving direction. Some folks prefer this. We would rather have a hint or suggestion vs an answer. Suggestion: players seek clarification on how clues work if it matters to you. This did not impact our rating. We should have sought clarification in regard to clue giving prior to playing. Due to the setting: Light level is low light (recommend offering flashlights) we used lights on our phones. Also, the external "train" noise level was loud. Too loud for my taste and it made hearing others more difficult, but adds to the chaos and immersive nature of the game. Again, did not impact rating. Just an fyi for players. And definitely did add to the ambience. We finished and stopped tgectrainin 45 minutes with 2 clues, BUT blew up 1/2 the train when disarming the bomb (which was too easy to accidentally do)
BEST ESCAPE ROOM EVER!! BEST HOSPITALITY, BEST WORKERS!! Everyone should go here for an escape room because I loved it. 10/10 would escape again!
We did the Train derailment Saturday WOW !!!! Talk about working as a team . They break your party up in this game scenario so your in two different train compartments. All I can say is LOOK LOOK LOOK!!! Everything is clue sometimes it’s just in place to make ya think. I am also enclosing some picture of the ONLY ICE ROOM in the country ! The room is set at 4 degrees , you only have 30 minutes to escape this room . The Train derailment is in an hour. . So if you are looking for something different to do on vacation or resident this is it ! I would bring a small pocket flash light for the Train just to help you with the lighting .
We had a fun time! Puzzles were pretty tricky so if you’re looking for a challenge this is for you. Connor was super helpful and made sure we had a great time.
