Mysterious Room - Escape Room Curve

Mysterious Room - Fun, Exciting & Absorbing


We walked past Escape Room so many times before finally deciding to try our luck at the latest craze that has taken our social media.  
As it was our first time we were extremely intrigued and excited with the notion of being trapped in a room and finding a way out using just our smarts. The staff were very professional and it was nice to see the enthusiasm as it rubbed off on us. 



We were told that we are both breaking into a room to recover/steal a precious jewel which is hidden in that room. As soon as they locked us in the room the time started!

I don't want to give any spoilers but I have to say that the room is well designed and the lasers were a really nice touch. The whole Entrapment scene came into our mind but we soon realized that you have to be extremely nimble to maneuver  through the maze. Since neither of us are national gymnast we used our brains and found a way through.
The room scores high on the theme and the use of unique puzzles. However, it does have its WTF moment as we had to use the Help button for one of the puzzle that didn't make any sense even after the staff explained to us. Long story short, we managed to steal the jewel and dashed out with 1 minute remaining. Being this was our time, we dashed out with huge grin as if we were being chased by NYPD. 



We rummaged through their extensive array of props for the winners photo and we knew at that point that we have found a hobby that fulfills our love for puzzles, riddles and investigations!
