📖 THE STORY

You are just on a normal tour at the Experiment Virtual Intelligence Laboratory (EVIL). All of a sudden, the assistant tells you that they are having an emergency lockdown because a menacing robot just powered himself on. Since you are the only ones on the premises, it's up to you to stop his evil plan.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The game master did an amazing job with acting out her character.

  • The intro video wasn't the normal ones you see at most of the escape rooms on TV, it's actually a prerecorded skit being presented in a very creative way within the escape room. It was as if we were part of a show.

  • The set design reminded me of "The Jetsons". It felt like we were in a futuristic cartoon.

  • The objective was very clearly introduced at the beginning but in case you didn't pay attention, there was a list in the room as well.

  • There were a lot of tech used in this room which complemented well with the futuristic laboratory theme. One of our favorite moments was discovering something we never thought could be possible to be utilized in solving a puzzle. That "aha" moment was gratifying.

  • Special effects were found everywhere in this game. Smoke, fog, laser, water, various types of lighting and more! This is a production!

  • We love the feeling of having to break into the lab but not just by finding a normal key or entering a code. All the puzzles were designed to feel like real life situations.

  • The plot was engaging and of course having a twist at the end is always a plus. Let's not forget that touch of humor as well!

  • Sometimes you just want to take a break from solving puzzles and have some plain old fun. We had an opportunity to do that in this game.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • If we had to nitpick on a perfect game, towards the end, some controls were a bit difficult to maneuver (not sure if it was intentional) and dragged on a bit before we saw the finale.


🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

When we got out of this room, a guy walked into the laboratory (yes, you can get lost inside the Nemesis Club) and was like "I'm lost". We thought this was still part of the game still and there were more surprises waiting for us. Truthfully, we just didn't want it to end. I probably used this terminology quite a few times in reviews before but this time I really felt it, "Disney Quality". From the set design to puzzles to storyline to cinematic effects, Nemesis Club hit the bullseye on everything. Just like how they advertised on their website, this is an attraction you don't want to miss when visiting Phoenix, AZ! But you'll have to find the way into the club first (check out our YouTube video for some guidance). And don't get distracted by the yummy milkshakes (that's your first challenge)!
