Our last stop in in San Antonio, Texas is at San Antonio Panic Room. This location was located a little bit outside of the busy downtown area so thereās plenty of parking outside. The lobby is very cute with a Hall of Fame polaroidās photo wall so if you escape, youāll be able to display your victory there. If you ever go, try and see if you can find us! They also have a party room incase you like to do an event there.
Today, we are attempting their "Prison Break" room which is their hardest room according to their escape percentage. As we entered, we were put into two separate jail cells and handcuffed to the wall. The set design and props used were great and the handcuffs felt so authentic they even left a little red marking as I stretched out to look for clues. One certain prop was also quite āentertainingā in the jail cell. There was one code there that I was a bit confused as to why that was the code to open the door as the amount of numbers needed didnāt really match up. We also encountered a code that needed to be use twice which is pretty rare in escape rooms so we suggest that you take note of this unless they change it after, but you should definitely ask this question prior to your game. As we progressed into the story, it was great to see that the set design ādevelopedā with it. The flow was nice, and the puzzles werenāt too difficult to interpret but it was definitely more on the linear side. Later on, there was one puzzle that was a bit confusing from a visual aspect which we also couldnāt get a direct answer from the game master even after the game on why it was designed that way. It didnāt really hinder us from solving the puzzle, but we got the answer from another way of thinking which was interesting.
Despite some of the confusing puzzle aspects, this room was definitely fun to play. We did get out with just the two of us with a good amount of time left. Currently, this location has 3 games total and "Phase III: Human Trials" feels like their largest in terms of size. We took a sneak peek at that room and it looked pretty amazing. The third room āCabin Feverā is also available at their sister company "Project Panic Escape Rooms" in Austin and itās a more updated version so we decide to visit there instead so do check out our review on that room as well!
