  • ROOM Escape Room - "Wrong Turn (Nowhere) - Extreme"

    LOCATION: St. Gallen, Switzerland Photo above is property of ROOM Escape Room Photos above are property of ESCAPETHEROOMers 📝   ETR DECODER 🔑 GAME : Wrong Turn (Nowhere) - Extreme 📅 DATE PLAYED : January 17, 2026 🎬 GENRE: Horror 🧠 DI FFICULTY (Based on 2 ppl) : 6/10 👥 TOTAL # OF PLAYERS : 2-4 ppl 🕒 LENGT H OF T IME : 75 Mins. 💰 PRICE : 139 CHF - 179 CHF ☎️ BOOKING TYPE : Private 🔓 ESCAPED/ COMPLETED? : Yes [47:16] 📖 THE STORY What begins as a peaceful hike along a sun-dappled forest trail quickly twists into something far more sinister. One wrong turn—just a few careless steps—and the familiar path behind you vanishes. The towering trees seem to shift, closing in like silent watchers. The air cools. The light thins. Hours pass. Hunger gnaws. Thirst prickles. Panic presses in like a tightening vice. Every rustle sounds like a warning. But soon, you realize this is not the worst fate awaiting travelers who stray too far. Because in these woods… people don’t just get lost. They disappear. 🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE E xceptional Atmosphere & Immersion The room’s visual and thematic design is outstanding. Despite the compact footprint (hence the max of four players), the space is packed with convincing, well-chosen props that fully sell the setting: a decrepit cabin belonging to a family of serial killers. It’s dark, dingy, and unsettling—complete with grimy tools, rundown furniture, and of course, a full-sized cage fit for victims. Clever Two-Level Layout One of the most unique features is the vertical design. Part of the experience takes place in a crawl space beneath the floorboards, adding novelty without becoming claustrophobic. Story Integration Done Right Many escape rooms struggle to maintain narrative momentum, but this game excels by incorporating audio updates triggered by your progress. They aren’t necessary for solving puzzles, but they enrich the experience—especially the storyline involving another unseen hostage. This narrative layering helps the game feel more alive and cinematic. Thematic & Enjoyable Puzzles The puzzles blend naturally into the environment and feel exactly like the types of challenges you’d face in this situation: freeing yourselves from captivity, making your way through the cabin, avoiding the murderous family, and ultimately escaping. There’s a good mix of searching, physical manipulation, and cooperative tasks, all varied enough to stay engaging. Extreme Mode Adds Real Tension We opted for Extreme Mode, which introduces light actor interaction. It significantly elevates tension—never knowing who might appear or when—and makes the finale especially intense. If you have the nerves for it, it’s a worthwhile upgrade. A Game Master Who Cares After the game, the GM took the time to walk us through the evolution of the room and the improvements they’ve made based on player feedback. Not many escape rooms truly iterate and refine their design, and their willingness to adapt has clearly resulted in a polished and well-balanced experience. We applaud the commitment. 🧩 MISSED THE MARK Too Many Secured Props While the room is filled with fantastic props, it becomes slightly immersion-breaking when you realize almost everything is bolted down. Essentially, if you can move it, it’s important—removing some of the natural curiosity and discovery that exploration-focused players enjoy. Actor Interaction Not Quite Worth the Price Jump In Extreme Mode, we only encountered the actor twice, and each moment lasted just a few seconds. For a 40 CHF increase, the added interaction feels a bit minimal. 🏹 TAKE A SHOT? Absolutely, this is a room worth visiting. While marketed as horror, it’s not overwhelmingly scary. Even in Extreme Mode, the fear factor mainly comes from anticipation, waiting to see if an actor might appear, rather than outright terror. Players anxious about scares should feel comfortable choosing Normal Mode, where the dim lighting is likely the biggest hurdle. We feel the game plays best with two, possibly three players. Four would likely feel cramped in certain sections. ℹ️ ADDITIONAL INFO The lobby features a full bar, snacks, ample seating, and lockers. There’s also a lounge area with free-to-use computer games, perfect for passing time before or unwinding afterward. Not wheelchair accessible.

Disclosure :   We thank ROOM Escape Room  for comping our tickets for this game. Although complimentary admission was generously provided, it does not impact our opinion on the review whatsoever. #RyanDriver #IRLescaperoom #EscapeRooms #ROOMEscapeRoom #Adventure #StGallen #Switzerland

  • Red Door Escape Room (Las Vegas) - "Borderlands: Tannis's Lab"

    LOCATION: Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Photo above is property of Red Door Escape Room (Las Vegas) Photos above are property of ESCAPETHEROOMers 📝   ETR DECODER 🔑 GAME : Borderlands: Tannis's Lab 📅 DATE PLAYED : November 9, 2025 🎬 GENRE : Sci-Fi, Action 🧠 DIFFICULTY (Based on 3 ppl) : 6/10 👥 TOTAL # OF PLAYERS : 2-6 ppl 🕒 LENGTH OF TIME : 60 Mins. 💰 PRICE : $39.95/ pp ☎️ BOOKING TYPE : Private 🔓 ESCAPED/ COMPLETED? : Yes 📖 THE STORY Red Door teamed up with 2K Games and Nerdvana to build a real-life slice of the Borderlands universe and Tannis’ Lab lands with all the game’s wild, irreverent energy. You’re recruited to stabilize and power up a vault key and then put it to use. If you’ve played the game, the in-jokes and lore will land and amplify the fun (we imagine). If you haven’t, the plot can feel a bit murky, but that doesn’t stop the room from delivering on the look and the weirdness that Borderlands is known for. Video above is property of ESCAPETHEROOMers 🎯    HIT THE BULLSEYE Set design & vibe : The lab nails that cartoon-punk sci-fi aesthetic with futuristic machinery, piles of gadgets, and the sort of delightful clutter that reads instantly as Borderlands. Big, bold, and weirdly playful (considering all the guns), it was our favorite environment of the three Red Door rooms we played Tech that works : We always appreciate when a game that is so gadget-forward (tablets, custom machines and devices, and lots of interactive tech) where everything functions smoothly! The tech feels integral to the game and the experience. Character work : A quirky, thematic character (a fun robot-y presence) helps shepherd you through the lab. Whether or not they’re a canonical NPC from the game, they’re charming, and their personality adds a lot to the experience. (Some people might find him a bit over the top, but I was a big fan!) Moments of levity : The room leans into some seriously goofy and irreverent energy with little flourishes (including a brief, delightful dance moment) that are pure joy if you let them land. Mission guidance : The tablet can guide you through objectives when you need it, which is handy; sometimes you’ll spot the next move without it, but it’s a sensible safety net if you’re unsure what your next step should be. 🧩   MISSED THE MARK Narrative clarity: As players unfamiliar with the video game on which the room is based, we had a hard time really understanding the story. While it didn’t impact actual gameplay, it seems like a little more exposition about what’s going on would help all players to engage with and follow the narrative. Terminology hiccup : Calling mandatory objectives “side missions” adds a small layer of head-scratching from the start. Staff do warn you in the intro, but the wording seems unnecessarily misleading, even if it may be a nod to the video game. 🏹 TAKE A SHOT? If you love " Borderlands ", Tannis’s Lab is a must-visit. While we couldn’t recognize them ourselves, we’re confident the Easter eggs, tone, and set dressing will reward your fandom. But if you’re coming in cold, like us, don’t worry! The room still delivers on immersion, polished tech, and playful moments; just be prepared not to be too focused on the story. This is primarily a single-space romp with a few pockets to open up, so expect concentrated, gadget-forward puzzling and plenty of tactile interaction. Fans of strong set design and character-driven quirks will get the most mileage here. For folks who want a big, theatrical, game-accurate environment and don’t mind leaning into the chaos, this one’s a blast! 🔎 HINT Take a careful sweep to find what’s immediately accessible… Photos above are property of ESCAPETHEROOMers ℹ️   ADDITIONAL INFO The lobby/waiting area where you check in also has merch for sale and a small amount of seating. There also are bathrooms available, and each escape room has a small box in which to put your things. Parking can be tricky, so allow extra time if driving yourself and look for a paid lot. Otherwise, it is right on the strip and walkable from many local hotels.

Update : Brandon & Cici (founders of ESCAPETHEROOMers) also visited Red Door Escape Room (Las Vegas) to play " Borderlands: Tannis's Lab " in February '26!! Thank you for hosting us and we had an amazing time in all of the games! #KristaJones #IRLEscapeRoom #EscapeRooms #RedDoorEscapeRoom #SciFi #Action #Nevada #USA
