📖 THE STORY

Despite the warning of the serial killer “One Eyed Jack” being in town, you still went out with your friends. The last thing you remember is taking a sip of your drink. When you woke up, you knew you had to get out of wherever you are… FAST!

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

The set design felt like we were trapped in the cell of a dungeon. We even felt a bit of wind which gave us chills at times.
All the props were well made and felt authentic.
There was a puzzle we really enjoyed as we’ve never seen that before but made us use our thought process in a real-life kidnapped situation.
Loved the physical puzzle that was incorporated in the room.
The flow of the game was smooth and we really appreciated the light and sound effects that came with a “reveal” when we solved a puzzle. This makes it very easy to see what opened and it felt rewarding.
Special effects were nicely done although we missed one during the game since we completed a puzzle too quickly and triggered something simultaneously.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

One of the puzzles at the beginning was a bit hard to see from a distance. Perhaps just a little bit of dim dungeon light would help. Not enough for a reveal but would help see better when the time comes to solve the puzzle.
There was one flashlight that we had to share among the both of us which made it hard to solve some of the puzzles at the beginning. If the group is large, it would best to at least give several lights so everyone could at least visualize and search.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Trapped! Escape Room Las Vegas has a sister company called Lost Games. They are also in Las Vegas. You can check out our review for their game. We feel like the quality of their rooms are very consistent. It just so happens we chose both of their horror themed rooms and both were amazing. This one also made it to our "Top Rated" list. We hope to try some of their other concept rooms when we return to Vegas next time to see their other creativities. No matter if you are an enthusiasts or just started to play escape rooms, you’ll enjoy this room. The puzzles are not too difficult, but it puts you into a real-life immersive setting which is why most of us play escape rooms. We like to escape from our reality into another even if it's just 60 minutes of our time. Our recommended size for this room is 3-5 people. Let us know your opinion after trying out the room and if you tried their other rooms before, we love to hear your thoughts!

Update: We re-visited Trapped! Escape Room Las Vegas to play the updated version of "One Eyed Jack" in November 2023!! They have a Halloween version of this room but we did the regular version. There were at least 3 puzzles and 1 prop that were added in this new version of the game.
