This escape room is located in the Tropicana casino in Atlantic City which is probably why you have to be 18+ in order to play here. It was a bit tricky to find as it's in the lower level of the casino, but it's quite big in there so make sure you leave ample time to locate it. The lobby is clean and has some comfortable sofas in the waiting area. If they have two groups at the same time they may ask one to step outside so that they can explain the rules to the other one first. We were lucky to get the room privately with just the two of us. Although "Casino Cage" is the smallest room there, it was definitely challenging with two people as there's a lot of puzzles to do. However, we were just shy of one puzzle from successfully escaping. I would say ideally four people would be a good number for this room. This room had a lot of linear puzzles with mostly locks, but there was a clear storyline which we liked that told the story of how a casino cage functioned and the set design was also pretty immersive. Everything was very well maintained in there. If you go with two people, they will be able to give you your three clues right away. But if you go with more than two people, you will actually have to solve puzzles to earn your clues which will take away some of your time from the actual game so just beware of that. If you have more people, someone should definitely work on earning the clues as the others search for and work on the actual puzzles in the room. We are excited to try out their other rooms when we return next time.
