Oh baby! This place is seriously the place to go. If you want high production sets, super fun puzzle with great satisfaction completing and methodically thinking puzzles that challenge you all the way through the rooms, this is the place for you!
KP was a super fun Game Master that keep us pumped with good energy and a smile on our face. With first timers in our group, you know they were nervous but he helped us along one of the toughest rooms I've ever done, Ctrl + Alt + Reality. All the rooms they have are really amazing as they immerse you into the world they create! Cheers PlanetEscape, you

The themed rooms are so meticulously decorated/designed and the puzzles are so clever. I'm so impressed with the amount of thought that went into not only creating the story and designing the puzzles, but also the ingenuity it took to create and program some of the mechanisms behind the curtain, so to speak. I've done every room and loved each one. I can't wait for new rooms.
