| - Do. Blaine's. Basement. Best. Escape. Room. EVER!!!!!
Listen, I've done almost a dozen escape rooms. Maybe I'm an addict, don't judge me. I find escape rooms super cool, but today....well, today we went to a whole new level!!
First, we called to ask for a special weekend day daytime appointment, that wasn't offered on the website (we work weekends, and they usually only do daytime on weekends). I spoke to the owner of the company, who was AMAZINGLY cool and booked us for a special time, just to accommodate us!
THEN, he recommended we do his favorite room, Blaine's Basement. THEN, he told me that that room only has a 20% success rate! So, basically he threw down the gauntlet!It was ON!!! Blaine's Basement, it is!
I will NEVER give spoilers, but I will say this: this room was a creepy ass, super cool, extra level of creativity! It combined escape room with horror movie, with Medium tv show, with FBI Files, with murder mystery, and more! It was a non-linear escape room, which is my favorite, as you always have to be thinking forward AND backward! The clues were SO involved, complicated, and thoughtful, but my favorite part was how involved the ROOM was. That's really all I can say. Just do it.
Trust me (I know you don't KNOW me, but consider me a friend, and just DO IT)!!!!
PS....20% be damned! WE made it out!!! 6 minutes to spare!! It can be done!! We were all soooo jacked up and full of adrenaline that we talked about the room non stop during dinner following. I'm not sure my hear rate is normal, 10 hours later!
