Room Escapers - Boston Escape Rooms

Our GM Nadia was friendly, helpful and thorough. We enjoyed the hints system in this room as well as the variety of puzzles. I think groups of 3-5 are perfect for The Lost Ship. This one of the better escape room companies in Boston, on par with Boxaroo and Trapology!

Thank you Nadia for accommodating our family, the kids really loved this experience!! The puzzles weren’t so challenging that the kids couldn’t participate, but we also needed a little help along the way, so a great mix.

Having done a lot of other escape rooms in Boston, I chose to do the Panacea escape room with my partner but left kind of disappointed. The story behind it was interesting, the GM was great, but I think they were also training another GM at the same time while managing our game because there were two of them who had welcomed and helped us into our room. During the game: They did warn us to give about 30 seconds to get a response for a hint if we asked which was fine, but I feel like at times it definitely took more than a minute to receive a response or even get a response at all so I had to ask the same question more then once, which resulted in wasted time. I was definitely stuck in one specific puzzle in the room for the LONGEST time and I almost felt like the GM wasn't following along our game that well, as I expected to at least get hints along the way if they had noticed we weren't moving forward as quickly. And the hints that I DID receive for this specific puzzle did not make sense until after 4-5 hints were given! Hence, my partner and I solved one puzzle in the whole hour and left defeated lol for the amount of money spent on this, I was expecting a better experience :( _____________________________________________________________ UPDATE: The General Manager, Nadya, reached out to us and offered to have us play the Panacea room again for a better experience after reading my review, which was really thoughtful and kind of her to do! She was really nice and friendly when we got there and offered for us to do another escape room instead if we wanted to. We chose to do Organized Chaos. Nadya's explanation on the room was extremely helpful, especially letting us know what NOT to focus on which saved us a lot of headache and time to focus on the puzzles that mattered lol. She was helpful throughout the game and we beat the room on time! Thank you for inviting us back and making this experience the best!! :)
