About the escape room

17 years ago, a young successful surgeon was forced to end his career. In his last year of work, his colleagues began to notice the doctor's strange behavior: excessive suspicion towards patients and doctors, passive-aggressive communication, and a delusions of grandeur. These traits interfered with his work, and he had to stop practicing medicine. A psychiatrist diagnosed him with paranoid psychosis. His condition worsened, and he stopped communicating with his doctor. The only people he kept in contact with were groups of volunteers. You are part of the volunteer group tasked with helping the ill doctor. He asks you to go down to the basement and fetch a box of his belongings. While searching for the items, you stumble upon jars with eyes and severed ears. The former doctor had spent years torturing, killing, and dismembering people in his basement. Losing his mind over the thought that people wanted to harm him, he lured people into his basement and tried to get answers to his questions through brutal torture. After realizing that you have ended up in the lair of a madman, you have few chances of escape.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost are delighted: scary and fun at the same time, the actors carry it and involve everyone. Puzzles are non-trivial and logical, the setting is detailed, the sound presses just right. There are organizational downsides: no restroom, sometimes waiting outside, confusion with the route. Occasionally people complain about one actor instead of the promised two and about compact rooms; a one-off case — hitting an unlatched door.
WeaknessesNo restroom and sometimes you wait outside; some didn’t like the amount of grime/cobwebs around. Sometimes two actors are promised but only one works, or the contact level turns out softer than expected. Spaces are cramped in places.
StrengthsStrong atmosphere and set design, a horror-movie feel from the first minutes. Actors flexibly adapt to the mode and the team, giving attention to everyone. Puzzles make sense in logic and pace, interesting for both newcomers and experienced players.
SecurityA clear safety briefing before the start. The game is contact-heavy and active, with crawling in the dark; there was a single complaint about a metal door left open and a bruised knee.
Level of fearFear level is adjustable: from light 14+ to harsh hard. Kids 11–12 managed with a gentle approach, while on tough modes it’s genuinely scary and adrenaline-pumping.
Actors' gameActors are the main plus: they perform convincingly, keep the tension, help and scare at the same time, leaving no one without attention, including kids. Rare mismatches in the number of actors versus what was promised.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles are varied, without obvious "dumb" bits; clear logic and sequence. Not banal yet solvable; hints are given to the point. There’s enough for the experienced too, and newbies go through with pleasure.
PlotAt the core, a story of a paranoid surgeon and a descent into his basement for a "box of belongings". Then - a gradual plunge into a nightmare with unexpected twists, without extra spoilers.
Difficulty levelMedium difficulty, tasks fair and clear. Experienced teams won’t be bored, and newcomers will pass with hints and the actors’ attention.

We came for a bachelorette party and left thrilled. The locations are varied and meticulously designed; the sound and actors keep you on edge, the puzzles are logical and unfold in a clear sequence, and the immersion is complete.

This escape room will especially appeal to experienced players: lots of interaction with the characters, nobody is left out. The atmosphere and puzzles are well thought out, the tension never lets up, and the actors perform without any lulls. Ten out of ten.

Fantastic atmosphere and excellent sound design. We chose the medium level—scary but not over the top, and the puzzles make logical sense. The actors never let up for a minute—thank you!

Great quest, but there's no restroom—that's a downside. The four of us completed it; the staff were great; overall we're satisfied and can recommend it.

If you arrive early, wait outside—there’s nowhere to wait inside. No toilet or sink; there’s dirt and cobwebs in places, and the operator on the phone got confused about the route. There’s room for improvement in their organization.

We expected more creepiness: they promised two actors, but only one was working. In the 14+ mode they hardly touched us, which made the experience less intense, though overall it was fine.

Of all the escape rooms in Rostov, this company’s are the strongest: the set design is impressive and the puzzles are unconventional. We got the scares and had to use our heads — we left very impressed.

The quest itself is lively, but the organization was lacking: they promised two actors—only one showed up, and there isn’t even a restroom; we had to wait outside. We still had fun inside, but it left a bit of a bad aftertaste.

The quest was disappointing: four of us came on easy mode, but there was only one actor for the entire game. That’s critical for us; we felt misled.

Overall impressions are good, but one of the players banged their knee on a metal door that had been left open. Even so, we liked the acting, and it was time well spent.

Not the toughest, but the atmosphere and sound crank the pressure to the max. At times you’re crawling in the dark—watch your knees. Otherwise—solid and atmospheric.

We went for the hard mode. It was genuinely scary—heart in throat and hands shaking—but it was a blast. Made me want to come back on another mode and try it a different way.

We went with our 12-year-old nieces and nephews. They went easy on the kids but kept them on their toes and didn’t leave anyone out. A perfect first horror experience for a family.

The four of us went and were flooded with emotions. One of us was taken out early, but watching our teammates through the cameras turned out to be unexpectedly engaging—the actors both scared and helped in just the right measure.
