About

Just a random person who likes escape rooms. All opinions are my own. Visits were not invited, sponsored or paid for by the companies in any way.

(The only exceptions are:
1) My preview visit to chapter one of The Forsaken Vault,
2) The unexpected discount I received during only one visit (out of several trips) to LOST in JB
3) The by-invitation Murder Mystery SG case Castle Lumiere Nightfall
4) The 50% discount received on Princess Radin Mas Ayu, after I gave unsolicited feedback on other rooms.)

If some of these reviews look familiar, it’s probably because you’ve seen the (slightly different) versions that I’ve posted to TripAdvisor.

As for escaping outside SG, you can find my reviews of rooms in Malaysia here, and reviews for rooms/events in other countries here.

ESCAPE EVENTS?

Why doesn’t this blog include reviews of events, such as the pioneering Real Escape Game series?

The main aim of this blog is to help people decide what escape rooms they might want to try. (This is also why, when I started, I didn’t post reviews for rooms that had already closed.) Escape games or events, however, are often held only once. As such, I didn’t want to include reviews for them here.

However, because I was bored it can be nice to get a second opinion on escape game events which you’ve taken part in before, I have a separate blog for escape game reviews. Here it is: escaped.sg

THE REVIEWS

All reviews are based on full, successful escapes (I have some great escape room comrades) except for:

– Mission Incredible
Attempted as a pair, failed miserably, so the review is based on an incomplete experience.

– Ninja: The Secret Disciplines of the Shinobi
Attempted in a group of 3. We only failed to solve the last step, so we had basically the full room experience.

– Quarantined – The Final Hour
Attempted as a pair. We only failed to solve the last step, so we had basically the full room experience.

– Vampire Diary
Attempted in a group of 5. We were two or three steps from the ending.

– Tomb Raider
Attempted in a group of 9. We were about one-and-a-half steps from the ending, so we had basically the full room experience.

– Szechuan Secret
Attempted in a group of 6. We made it through about… 60%, 70% of the room, maybe?

– Alice in Wonderland
Attempted as a pair. We only failed to solve the last step, so we had basically the full room experience.

– Funeral: The Mourning Widow
Attempted in a group of 6. We only failed to solve the last step (arguably due to having lost a lot of time due to technical malfunction), so we had basically the full room experience.

– Poseidon
Attempted in a group of 3. We only failed to solve the last step, so we had basically the full room experience.
