Trapped, Escape Room Review

Trapped
Toronto, Canada

Pandemic: A zombie apocalypse threatened the future of all mankind. A professor had discovered a cure. We had to find it in order to survive.

Pros: This was our second trip to Trapped. After playing Diamond Heist earlier in the year, we wanted to return hoping for a repeat performance. We enjoyed the storyline and theme of this room but were less impressed by the set and puzzles.

Cons: The puzzles were a bit monotonous and generally boring to solve. The dark room made it difficult to see in order to solve them. The set was overall basic, adding little to the gameplay experience. We escaped with plenty of time left on the clock, but the game ended rather anti-climatically. 

We definitely recommend playing Diamond Heist, but we would not recommend playing Pandemic unless you have money and time to burn.
