Room Escapers - Boston Escape Rooms

Angelica Eling

We really wanted to like this place. Honestly the idea of tying the history of the building to the story of the game was super exciting to me and my husband and the reason why we booked Panacea. We are done over 60 rooms together and are always looking for something novel. Overall it just missed the mark. Our GM was great, but she kept apologizing for the fact that some of the puzzles are clunky when she obviously wasn’t the one responsible for building them. Many of the elements were worn or just not built well in the first place, and overall it could just use some major TLC. Definitely other better options in Boston if you’re looking for a good escape experience. This one could definitely be better with some love, time, and money invested in making it more of an immersive experience.

Great fun for a good size team of 11 year olds with 2 adults. We did the Apothecary and these kiddos did most of the work themselves. Fun and immersive designs with an engaged staff. We will be back.

Our experience here was awesome! My boyfriend and I did 'The Lost Ship' room. It was a Wednesday 7pm booking, so just the two of us took on the challenge without anyone else booking in. And we escaped with 90 seconds to spare!! Our guide, Captain Charles, did a fantastic job introducing the room to us with this whole back story to set us up. If you pay close attention, there are clues in everything he's saying as well. The room itself was the best part. It was actually several rooms all joined together and from the lobby you had to figure out how to even enter the main room in the first place—super cool! I had never seen anything like that before. The puzzles were also really well thought out and interesting, using logic and problem solving (not at all abstract or random). Of all the escape rooms I have done, I would say that this has been the best experience I have had because of the attention to detail in the room, the quality of the puzzles, and the experience of being able to solve it with just the two of us. The room is actually designed for at least 6 people, because it would have been helpful for others to take on and simultaneously solve riddles in the room. I'm pretty amazed we were able to do it with just 2 (but it was mostly because we had a few timely hints... big ones, lol). Awesome experience, highly recommend!!! P.S. - This location has only this room (Pirate's Booty 2 - The Lost Ship), and the other rooms are in their downtown location. So don't be confused ^_^

What a fantastic experience! Our group ranged from highly experienced escapers to total newbies, but the variety of puzzles and challenges available ensured that all of us were able to contribute something. Our guide Jeff was also incredible. He took the time to create the perfect story to set us off on our adventures, and he only provided one clue when absolutely necessary. Needless to say, our amazing team managed to escape with minutes to spare, and make a couple new friends as well! We'll definitely be coming back to Room Escapers for more adrenaline-pumping fun!
