The storyline had a very "Jumanji" feel to it which is always fun to experience. We love games that challenge us to find our way back to our own world!
The puzzles were pretty straight forward and made sense throughout the game.
Although everything inside of the room worked, there was a bit of a delay with some of the tech puzzles which made us question if we were on the right track of not.
It would've been great to have a more cinematic ending or confirmation that we made it back to our own world! We didn't feel like we were transported back after completing the final puzzle
The set design had more of a museum feel rather than a real jungle. In the later part of the game, one prop doesn't seem it belonged in the game.
This was the first time that I was able to get most of my family to go play an escape room together. For a lot of them, this was their first time but they did an amazing job with just a little help from us here and there. This is a great room for a large room since it's quite spacious and you can easily split up and work on different puzzles. If you love board games and cute stuffed animals, you might want to check this room out.
Disclosure: We didn't realize until we got there but there are definitely similarities between this room and "The Jungle Dimension" at Puzzle Theory . There were a few new puzzles we haven't seen here but majority were quite similar. You might want to take note prior to booking.
