And the light goes out

Arrived early, but there was no admin—we had to look around on our own. Trash in the waiting area, the instructor looked tired and gave a rushed briefing. The actor’s costume is simple, the mask kept slipping so you could see the face. The location is big and scary, but in places unsafe—it’s easy to trip. We asked them to pay more attention to service and costumes.

There were six of us; we were expecting “the scariest,” but it didn’t deliver: the actress hardly scared us and appeared predictably, and the administrator hurried us along and gave hints without being asked. The finale fell flat, and the video we bought had the music so loud you can’t hear us. Very disappointed.

There were just the two of us late in the evening, and everything worked: the darkness, the music, the sharp sounds, and the unexpected transitions. In the first room, the puzzle really made us rack our brains, and the actress Tatyana appeared in such a way that she was almost invisible — it kept the sense of mystery right up to the finale. Afterwards we had a heartfelt chat with the admins, Timur... Expand

Overall, we liked it, but we could hear screams from the neighboring quest, which was distracting. On the plus side, the actress Anastasia kept the tension high until the finale, and the puzzles were logical. If they improve the soundproofing, it’ll be top-notch.

The logic was a mess: clues weren’t where they were supposed to be, doors were opened prematurely, and the ending was cut off after we’d pressed just a couple of buttons. The admin gave vague answers to our questions. Overall, it felt unfinished and left a poor impression.

The atmosphere presses on you from the first minute: it’s dark, the music gets under your skin, and the transitions are awesome. Actress Yaroslava screamed so much we were hiding in the corners. We took hints over the radio a couple of times—quick and to the point. I’ll be back with a different group.

I liked the ideas and the atmosphere; there aren’t many logic puzzles, but there are plenty of surprises. Administrator Nastya does a great job of immersing you, and actress Tatyana deserves special thanks for her lively performance and improvisation. The team’s engagement is palpable.

A great, well-balanced quest: not overloaded with tasks, but there’s plenty to think about. We asked for minimal contact — they accommodated it. Thanks to administrator Svetlana for the calm briefing and to actress Tatyana for the chills down the spine.

Not my thing. We were stuck for a long time in the first room, and toward the end it felt like they were just rushing us and the finale was cut short. In places it’s so dark that it’s scary not because of the story, but because you’re afraid of running into corners.

The quest is compact but well-crafted. The actress stayed in character even after the finale; the puzzles are neatly designed, and there’s just the right amount of movement and darkness. Fans of the genre will definitely enjoy it.

I enjoyed the quest; the actress was fantastic, but it feels like the story just cuts off and lacks a clear resolution. I’d like a clearer finale—the emotions were there, but the plot never really puts a full stop on it.

The atmosphere is dark and keeps you engaged until the end; the puzzles aren’t hard but they’re interesting. There’s a walkie-talkie — the admin is always in touch. I liked that even the waiting rooms are themed.

We went as a group of five; the atmosphere and the actors’ performance hit the mark—it was genuinely scary. If you haven’t been there before, it’s better to warm up on another project first and come here prepared—it puts a decent strain on your nerves.

We do escape rooms often, but this one took about forty minutes and didn’t scare us. The acting is weak, there are few scary moments, and it feels unfinished. For something billed as 18+, it’s pretty tame.

Our first performance—we screamed like kids. The actress Ekaterina seemed to appear out of nowhere, and the transitions were a highlight of their own. Thanks to admin Timur for his patience and hints; we walked out trembling but happy.
