AI
Brief assessment
from Navigator AI
The experiment hooks with an unusual blend of light and pitch-black darkness: teams truly rely on each other and it keeps you on your toes. Not scary, but there’s plenty of adrenaline and laughs, especially when you have to feel your way through the dark zone.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost come as a group of four, and that’s where the quest opens up best: you split into two pairs and everything is built on mutual help. Difficulty is medium, but the darkness and comms make simple things feel unusually thrilling. No actors; the operator is attentive and friendly, and hints are on point. On the downside, the topic of discounts and booking through the website pops up sometimes.
WeaknessesSome may find it too light due to the absence of fear and actors. The darkness can throw you off and nudge you toward hints. People also note the inconvenience of discounts that only work when booking on the website.
StrengthsOriginal light/dark mechanic and fair, well-designed puzzles. Momentum, cooperation, and a wow effect from switching roles and locations. Suitable for families and groups of friends, lots of emotions without horror.
SecurityThe operator watches via cameras, gives instructions, and guides you gently; locations are clean and tidy. Sudden lights-off is part of the process—move carefully and mind your head.
Level of fearNo horror; you might startle when the lights cut out abruptly. Suitable for kids 9–10+, but it’s worth warning them about the darkness.
Actors' gameNo actors—the drive comes from player interaction and comms with the operator. It’s honest cooperation and camera monitoring instead of scary scenes.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles are logical and varied, often hinging on communication, clear instructions, and coordination. In the dark, even simple steps feel harder, but the solution is always clear. Liked the switch of roles and tasks between the light and dark zones.
PlotYou’re students who end up in an old laboratory and the “Darkness” experiment, where you have to escape using observation and comms. The story is delivered through actions, without unnecessary distractions or spoilers.
Difficulty levelLeans toward medium: comfortable for beginners, engaging for experienced players thanks to the format. Best with four, but works for two or three with good communication.

A very unusual yet fairly easy quest; the main challenge comes from the complete darkness. They split you into teams, you rotate between zones, watch through cameras and help each other, which brings lots of laughter and excitement. There are no actors; the service and locations are excellent, and it feels ingenious in its simplicity.

We went as a pair, but if you rarely play, it’s better to go as a group of four. The difficulty is fair, and due to the format, solutions come more slowly and feel more engaging. The balance between time and puzzles is excellent.

We were four, ages 30+, completed it in an hour without hints. The quest is dynamic and all about teamwork; the puzzles are logical and of reasonable difficulty. We left very satisfied.

We went as a group of four—I think that's optimal. The puzzles themselves aren’t difficult, but the setting easily throws you off, and without clear communication you’ll get stuck—we used a couple of hints. The key is to go with people who can explain things clearly.

Our team of four, two of them kids aged 9 and 11, finished in just over an hour. Puzzles of varying difficulty, clean rooms, a polite operator; we took turns being “operators,” which we especially enjoyed. A great way to spend time.

We went as a group of four, and that's the perfect format. The teams are split into light and dark zones; those in the light genuinely help those who have to feel their way in the dark. It's interesting and intense; we took hints at times and don't regret it.

We took our 10- and 12-year-old kids—everyone loved it. The locations are clean, the operator is responsive, the connection works perfectly, and the darkness isn’t scary—it actually gets you into team mode. We left happy and immediately started discussing who messed up where.

We went as a pair; I thought it would be easier, but the darkness adds a twist and you end up spending more time on the solutions. We took minimal hints and really enjoyed the interaction and the clear logic of the puzzles.

A team of four is just right. Some watch the cameras and prompt, others feel their way in the dark, and it all moves along at a brisk pace with no pauses. Not scary, but there’s excitement and laughter every minute.

We went in without any special expectations and came out with our eyes shining. The format is unlike anything we’d seen before, and there are plenty of surprises along the way. It’s even better if they tell you less before you start—the element of surprise works at full strength. Not scary; it’s just you inside.

The quest is built around two teams and mutual support, which is a definite plus. Some tasks are pretty tough, so the interest never wanes. The only downside is that discounts are applied correctly only when booking through the website.

It’s rare that something surprises me, but this one did: unusual conditions, unconventional tasks, and the engagement of all the senses. It truly feels like an experiment—I recommend it.

Great concept, especially when you swap roles and understand what it’s like to be the 'eyes' of the team. The discount only applied when booking through the website, which isn’t very convenient, and there are no actors, but the concept carries the experience.

We went as a family with a teenager and didn’t regret a minute. The light-versus-dark split is awesome; it keeps you engaged the whole time, and we were cracking up trying to explain where to go in total darkness. No cheap scares—just genuine emotions.

I’m usually not a fan of non-scary escape rooms, but this one is a different story: the interaction format is very unusual. I brought my parents along—they enjoyed it too; the hour flew by. Definitely worth a visit.
