Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost often praised: the location, sound, and actors’ work — immersion is strong. It’s scary in the dark and with sudden appearances, though some wanted more jump scares. Puzzles are generally simple, so experienced teams finish quickly and note the short duration and few rooms. On hard, physical contact is noticeable — good to know in advance.
WeaknessesPuzzles are easy and the quest can feel short, especially for veterans. At times there aren’t enough scares or a sense of scale in the spaces. In contact modes, interaction can be on the rough side.
StrengthsSets and location are great; the atmosphere grabs you from the moment you walk in. Actors show up often and carry the emotions. The family story hooks and guides you through the scenes logically.
SecurityOn hard, noticeable physical contact is possible; one guest mentioned a bruise. If you worry about the physical side, pick medium or soft mode; reviews give no info about the briefing.
Level of fearReviews say it’s scary, especially if you fear darkness and sudden jump-outs. No info in reviews about admitting children; the sensitive should choose a soft mode.
Actors' gameActors are praised for frequent appearances and engagement — lots of interaction. On hard mode, contact is more active and rougher.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles are clear and logical, without overcomplication. Some guests find them too easy, so the quest flies by. The focus is more on atmosphere and interaction than on hardcore tasks.
PlotThe plot draws you into the Butler family’s story and the tragedy with Lucy that sent everything sideways. It’s delivered without extra spoilers and keeps a grim tone.
Difficulty levelDifficulty skews easy; newcomers will be comfortable. Experienced teams may finish quickly, and it’s worth taking medium/hard for the emotions.

We went as a group of four—two girls and two guys, 25+. It was interesting, but we wanted more scares. On hard mode, they didn’t go easy on the girls — I even ended up with a bruise.

Went on the medium difficulty and didn't regret it: dark, atmospheric, actors sneak up like ninjas. The decor is gorgeous, and the sound really bears down on you. We got our fill of fear and emotions.

We went for the hard mode — the physical contact is tangible; I genuinely jumped a couple of times. The adrenaline rush is good, but we’d like a few more rooms and a longer runtime.

The set design is awesome, everything is thought out down to the smallest detail. Both the scares and the plot are on point — we left absolutely thrilled; there aren’t many quests like this around here.

As for the puzzles, everything was straightforward; the team moved smoothly without any snags and we finished quickly. For me, the duration was a bit short, though the atmosphere was OK.

The puzzles felt too easy—we finished the escape room quickly. It wasn't particularly scary; there are few rooms and they're small.

The family-centered story really worked; the music and lighting do half the heavy lifting. A great pick for horror fans—we were screaming and laughing in turns.

Darkness is the main villain; I was scared from the very first minutes. The actors are great—subtle, yet they keep you on edge. I’d go again.

Frequent actor pop-outs turn up the heat, especially in the dark. We chose the medium option and were satisfied—highly recommend checking it out.
