The Room - 9
Get transported back to elementary school! I loved the bright colors and desks, there's so much to investigate. This was my first time going to a room by The Escape Game and I was impressed by the high production value. I believe they have this room across their many other locations as well and for a good reason!
The Story - 7.5
There are fun little videos that explain the story and goals. I enjoyed how unique this room was in theme and they do a great job matching puzzles to subjects and immersing you in the school environment.
The Puzzles - 7.5
Mostly on the simpler side and yet still satisfying. There's a great balance between finesse and critical thinking... You might say it's like school. :) As a large group it's easy to tunnel vision or get lost in the chaos; clear communication and teamwork through parallelism are key!
The Verdict - 8
This is a solid room for a larger group - it's probably why The Escape Game in San Francisco sits in the heart of downtown for corporate events. The theme and props make for a memorable room.
The biggest downside is that you could be grouped with other players up to the 12 maximum - which might not be your jam if you're looking to set records and/0r only play with friends.
