Company King's Eye Escape

Our game began over twenty minutes late and the axe‑throwing noise was constant. A flimsy reach tool turned into a time sink, the room wasn’t fully reset, and the GM was slow to respond while monitoring another group. Even with extra time, it felt like a hollow win and nowhere near ‘expert’ difficulty.

We went as two and it was a lot, but the puzzle design was clever with several lock types we hadn’t seen. We didn’t finish, yet Eddie nudged us just enough without spoiling anything and made the experience great. Tough but very fun—I’d try again.

As a duo we loved the apocalypse vibe and clear storytelling from our GM. There are jump scares and a live actor option, but nothing over the top, and the room leans lock‑heavy with lots of back‑and‑forth. With 75 minutes we might’ve escaped—so many puzzles for two!

We didn’t finish on our first attempt, then returned later and technically escaped. The build sells the story and the survival‑style tasks feel thematic. No visible timer and a busy GM slowed us down before, but overall it’s immersive with a few startle moments.

One of the most distinctive rooms I’ve played. It’s brutally hard in a good way, and if a puzzle feels impossible you probably missed a clue. Patricia kept things light with sharp humor, and I’d recommend this to both newbies and veterans who want a challenge.

Packed room with smart, scrappy puzzles and lots of ways to split up—our group of four never stood around. Loved the tactile bits that made sense in a scavenger setting. We left buzzing.

Played it twice—once after many more rooms—and it still had me sprinting between solves. Smaller groups make it harder but it’s absolutely doable and wildly fun. Great physical touches and clever designs that use the space well.

Did low‑scare with two people and the hands‑on puzzles were a riot. We got a bit of extra time and it felt fair the whole way. Would happily run it back with four.

I enjoyed it so much I went back, and the optional actor toggle is great. Both runs were fun for different reasons, and the room holds up. Highly recommended if you like fast, puzzle‑forward play.

Immersion was strong and the scare slider was a nice touch, but the no‑timer thing made pacing weird and our GM took a while to answer once. Still a blast overall.
