📖 THE STORY

Deep in the Pine Barrens forest, you and a group of friends stumble upon a ranger station. Legend has it, that there's been sightings of the Jersey Devil in this area. The park ranger has done extensive research on this mythical creature and thinks he has finally discovered the information that could save him. Unfortunately, the park ranger is no where to be found and you and your friends will have to find a way into the station, find his research and finish what he started!

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • We love games that starts you off outside of the room and you'll have to figure your way in. With "Legend of the Pines", you start in the forest staring at the facade of a Ranger Station. The set design was incredible! There were pine needles all over the floor, a creaky porch, a generator, and an outhouse. Right when we step foot into the escape room, we felt like we're transported into a new realm.

  • We really enjoyed the fact that we had to think about how to get into the cabin like in a real life situation. We needed to use the props that were provided in order to make things work.

  • All the puzzles made sense given our environment and tasks at hand. Physical puzzle designs were implemented at the right time and enhanced the gameplay experience by doing so.

  • Although the room itself is not as big, the creator used every inch of the space.

  • From the beginning, the story slowly unraveled before us which led to a climactic ending and we were pleasantly surprised! They definitely did NOT disappoint with delivering that "wow" ending!!

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • With a game this solid, it's hard to say what we thought missed the mark. Without giving away any spoilers, the only thing that comes to mind is that one of the puzzles required extreme accuracy in order for something to happen. Certainly not a deal breaker at all. You Just have to be patient and give it a few tries.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

The "Legend of the Pines" was extremely story-driven with enough information to truly allow you to feel part of the narrative. We definitely felt like characters inside of a Grimms' Fairy Tales! So if you love story-driven games with a good mixture of physical and logic puzzles, you must visit Solve It Sherlock and try this game!!


So far, we've played all 4 rooms available by Solve It Sherlock - "Pirates of the Golden Skull", "The Magician's Secret", "Quarantine" and "Legend of the Pines". Although each game has a popular genre, the storylines for each were quite unique. Everything at Solve It Sherlock is created in-house and the quality in their production is exemplary! From the minute you walk in, the customer service is always great from beginning to end. After you finish your game, they generously provide you with a bottle of water and a bracelet as a souvenir!
