About the escape room

A gloomy evening of a cold autumn. You - best friends since school days, simultaneously received a text from a former classmate. She invites you to meet and stay at her house, because Dasha (as your classmate is called) could not come to the alumni meeting, which she deeply regrets. Terrified after reading the message, you abruptly stand up and run towards her house. Daria, wearing the same dress she wore at the prom, greets you with a wide smile on her face. But as soon as you cross the threshold, each of you loses consciousness. When you came to, you realized that Dasha was gone, as was the way back ...

If you’re tired of locks and keys—this is for you. "The Cursed" plays on imagination: eyes closed, smells, tactile effects, and choices that change the story.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost are thrilled with the "in your head" format, deep immersion, and the work of the actors and host. The game is seated and long, yet tension and emotions hold to the end; many keep discussing it afterward. There are complaints about certificate service and occasional notes on the host’s diction/emotionality. A few reviews flagged mask hygiene as a risk and that without team chemistry and imagination the impression is weaker.
WeaknessesSome find it boring to sit with eyes closed and not move; if your imagination is weak, it lands worse. There are complaints about unclear diction and low emotionality from the host. The certificate policy is criticized separately, and there was a review about problems with masks.
StrengthsStrong atmosphere, vivid imagery and effects, a sense of personal involvement in the plot. Live improvisation by the host tailored to the team, good rapport with the actors.
SecurityThey give a briefing and treat players attentively. Reviews suggest bringing your own sleep mask; a single unpleasant skin/eye incident due to masks was mentioned.
Level of fearScary in places, but without gore or realism—more psychological tension. Teens liked it, but the easily frightened should prepare mentally.
Actors' gameActors and hosts are often praised for engagement, pacing, and adaptability; they drive the immersion. Sometimes people ask for more emotion and a clearer voice.
Quality of riddlesNo classic puzzles; this isn’t about locks. Decisions and strategy matter more: what to take, where to go, how to act. The event logic is generally fair; the outcome depends on the team.
PlotYou’re childhood friends going to Dasha, but on the doorstep you lose consciousness, and there’s no way back. Then comes a chain of choices and consequences, where atmosphere and imagination fill in the picture.
Difficulty levelMedium difficulty: no physicality, but you need teamwork and imagination. Playing solo and without a shared mood is hard.

A year has passed, yet the memories are still vivid. The entire quest is played with your eyes closed, but it's your decisions that drive the story. At some point we got so immersed that everything 'looked' and 'felt' real; the scene with the patient completely knocked us off balance. Our tip: don't pick up everything — items actually matter.

A very unusual format: we played “in your head” for the first time. The atmosphere pulls you in; without teamwork it’s tough, but that actually makes it better—it brings people together. The only downside is that at times the host’s voice wasn’t clear or expressive enough, so we had to strain to hear and it broke immersion. Otherwise—vivid emotions and a strong desire to try other stories.

Enjoyed the quest, but an important note: bring your own sleep masks. After using their masks, one girl developed an eye inflammation, and another had a forehead breakout where the mask made contact. We’re now figuring out how to treat it. The format is great, but be careful with hygiene.

I didn't think an hour and a half in a blindfold could pack such an emotional punch. Scents, objects, the voice—it all turns into a movie in your head. The actor is fantastic; the key is not to grab everything, but to think. I'll be back for another storyline.

Disappointed with the gift certificate: it was for an escape room, but when I tried to book they said it had expired, even though there isn’t a single date on the certificate. They were rude on the phone, too. They took the money but accept no obligations.

We played as a group of five and walked out feeling as if we’d truly lived through it. The game master struck a fine balance between offering hints and freedom of choice, and the actors gave us goosebumps. We’re still unpacking how everyone behaved and why.

Team chemistry makes all the difference. We really lived through this story: we argued, made choices, faced the consequences, and then spent another hour discussing it. Thanks to the facilitator for the nuanced delivery!

It’s a rare opportunity to “build” your own game together with the host and actors. If you trust the process, the storyline hooks you and at times is genuinely tense, while there are clear goals and strategies. Special thanks to the operator for adapting to our style and to the actor for a performance that gave us goosebumps.

At first we were put off by the idea of sitting in masks for an hour and a half, but we decided to set the skepticism aside—and that was the right call. The immersion is unexpectedly powerful, especially when scents come into play. It’s hard to put into words; it’s one of those things you have to experience for yourself.

It didn’t click for me: I like running around and solving physical puzzles, but here almost everything is in your imagination. You sit and listen—sometimes it’s scary, but there’s not much action. The actors did their best, no doubt.

Great format, but it’s tough to sit still for a long time. I lost the thread a couple of times because the diction wasn’t the clearest, but the ending gave me goosebumps. Overall, I liked it.

Scary just enough—the mind paints such vivid pictures that props aren’t even necessary. A great option if you’re tired of locks and codes. Bring friends with imagination—it’ll be awesome.

We gifted a quest to five teenagers—they were pleased, lots of emotions. The only downside, according to them, was that there wasn’t enough movement. Otherwise, everything went great.

An original experience for those who enjoy team play and imagination. I, however, prefer more action-oriented quests, so my rating is average. We wrapped up in about 1:15 and got our share of emotions, but for me it lacked dynamism.

Not my thing at all. Boring, ridiculous—like a 'blindfolded fairy tale.' Feels like a low-budget version with no set design, though the receptionist was nice. I wouldn't call it a quest.
