I absolutely did not know what to expect when I arrived, do I have to physically escape a room? Do I solve puzzles? Am I playing a grown up game of CLUE? The team at Xterious escape rounded us up and showed us our backstory video, gave us brief and clear instructions and took us to our room.
Without spoiling anything I can tell you it's about finding clues and solving puzzles and working together. Our team made it from room to room and escaped with 14 minutes to spare. I was sceptical at first, but it was so much fun. I can't wait to bring the kids.
I will recommend that you try to bring a big group, otherwise you get paired with strangers. We lucked out and our new team mates were cool and friendly and NOT MORONS. Some of the props were a little "hokie" but if you can get past that it's just good fun.
