🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The ambient lighting and props in this room immediately transported us from the real world into a world of wizardry.

  • The first puzzle brought "magic" into the game right away. It was a great way to capture our interest.

  • The puzzle designer used every inch of the room possible to create various types of puzzles that involved visualization, logic, and finally sprinkled with a little magic.

  • The "visual aid" in the room was nice to have as the storyteller. It would have been nice if the clue system could be given that way as well.

  • Puzzle lovers would be in for a treat in this room. There was puzzle after puzzle that needed to be solved and at one point we even worried about finishing in time.

  • There was a cool decoder puzzle that we hadn't seen used in many escape rooms before. It was quite a reveal once we realized how to use it.

  • This room had a clear and conclusive finale.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • The usage of the wands in this game felt like "trial and error" as sometimes we would just need to hold one but sometimes we would need to hold multiple. If an instruction clue could be left from the start of the game it would be able to clear this confusion.

  • There was a clue for a puzzle towards the end that was confusing. We were unsure if it was supposed to be interpreted in a mathematical way or a descriptive way.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

This room had a lot going on right from the beginning. If you haven't played escape rooms before, you might feel a little overwhelmed. Our advice to you is to really examine the room and make sure you remember as much as you can. You never know when you might have to use something later on. In our opinion, this is the hardest room they have at the location so definitely warm up to this room with their other games. This room is also my favorite game at this location probably due to the theme (I'm a big Harry Potter fan) and also the creativity of the puzzles. If you think you are good at spells and want to bring out your inner wizard, definitely check out this room at Exit 4 Escape Rooms!
