Saw

As a fan of Saw, it didn’t feel true to the canon: the operator barged in with hints, the missing flashlight was handed straight to us, and the final safe was already open. The music is great, but the price isn’t justified given such slip-ups. On another day, maybe it would have been a different experience.

We went with the medium contact level; the actor Alexander was on fire and kept us on edge until the very end. The puzzles aren’t overcomplicated, but in that atmosphere you end up solving them on your last nerve. Taisiya greeted us, explained everything, and helped over the walkie-talkie when we got stuck. We want to come back for hard mode.

The organizers were polite, and they even let two “maniacs” loose so everyone got their share of thrills. But as an adrenaline junkie, I didn’t get enough attention from the actors, and one lock clearly needs to be replaced — I got tired of trying keys. The waiting area is cozy, but the greeting and send-off could have been warmer.

We went for the hard mode and didn’t regret it: adrenaline, screams, and the actor didn’t hold back at all—just as promised. Came away with a bruise as a souvenir, but they did warn us. And the puzzles weren’t just filler—you actually had to think.

As a Saw fan, I expected more “traps” but got a standard horror with a maniac. The radio lagged a couple of times, and one mechanism only opened after the operator’s prompt. The staff were friendly, but it doesn’t stick to the canon. Fine for newcomers; debatable for veterans.

Our first horror experience. We chose the easy level — the actor Evgeny scared us without any physical contact, very considerately. Anna and Zilya supported us over the radio and gave timely hints. A great start for beginners.

The location is small, and after 15 minutes the actor was just trailing us, which makes you more annoyed than scared. The puzzles aren’t difficult, but it feels like you can’t get through them without a walkie-talkie. We made it through out of sheer stubbornness; we wanted to leave earlier.

The escape room is good, but really difficult: our team spent almost an hour and a half inside. You can tell it’s more about puzzles than jump scares. Overall, we were satisfied.

I enjoyed the escape room, but it was a bit short on rooms, and the music sometimes drowned out the hints. The actor, though, did a solid job and wouldn’t let us relax. Overall, the evening was a success.

We went for a birthday—it was really scary; we’ll remember actor Alexander’s performance for a long time. Toward the end we opted out of contact, the others got too anxious. The tasks are rather easy, but we got stuck in places; perfect for beginners.

We were very disappointed: it was stuffy, some of the props were beat-up, and the mechanisms either didn’t work or looked like patch jobs on the wall. The actor had nothing to do with Saw—only the name and the mask were from the franchise. A waste of money.

The atmosphere is fantastic, the puzzles are on point, and the actors Mikhail and Alexander got the most out of us emotionally. Anna and Taisia organized everything perfectly and helped with any questions. If you're after an adrenaline rush, this is the place. Highly recommend.

The actor is A-plus, though he doesn’t always gauge his strength; thankfully you can choose the level of contact in advance. The tasks feel lively, and it makes you want to come back again.

Even with minimal contact, it was scary. A couple of puzzles glitched, one thing even opened on its own, but the overall impression is great. My brother—a programmer—forgot basic arithmetic out of fear, which says a lot.

We asked for the actor to be removed, but we weren’t listened to; as a result, we got really scared, and there turned out to be too few rooms. The transitions between them didn’t impress. Overall, it’s fine for a first experience.
