🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

We were grateful for the fact that each player received their own flashlight. The majority of the room was kept in dim lighting, which added to the eerie atmosphere.
The story began with a chilling voice from the killer, but he gradually became more amiable as the game progressed. It seems he enjoys playing games, yet he was secretly hoping that you would be the first to escape from his hideout.
While exploring the room, we discovered some intriguing hidden spots. I was especially fond of the concept of using physical tools, as it enhanced the immersion in the real-life escape scenarios.

I was quite shocked by the unexpected locations where we had to locate specific items. Some individuals may consider it somewhat gruesome, but I personally enjoy it. Additionally, there were a couple of jump scare moments that caught me off guard.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

We fully enjoyed being "toyed" by the maniac killer. I would gladly return for part 2 anytime.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Bold Escape Room has extensive experience in running Haunt attractions and it is evident in the meticulous attention to detail seen in the set design and prop creation within this room. As soon as the poison gas filled the room, a sense of urgency and fear gripped us, setting the stage for a heart-pounding race against time.

Every element in the room seemed to tell a story of past victims, serving as a stark reminder of the fate that awaited those who failed to escape. The immersive experience truly made us empathize with the terror that the victims in "SAW" must have felt, adding a chilling layer of realism to the entire ordeal.

If you are seeking an adrenaline-pumping adventure that will push your limits and test your wits, then purchase a ticket to this experience. Prepare to be locked in with a maniac, where every corner holds a new challenge and every decision could mean the difference between survival and becoming another haunting memory within the walls of the room.
