JessicaI enjoyed the other two rooms more than Black Gold, although it is still a great set up. It is a little dark in the room, and we found ourselves unsure of what the next step would be on multiple occasions. Our gamemaster had to help guide us along as to what to look for next, as it just wasn't as intuitive. There were some elements of this room that were a little too out-of-the-box (as in, if we hadn't been told what to do, we probably would have never thought of the solution). Overall, a fine room, but I would recommend Captive and The Heist before this one. My team of 4 people escaped in about 51 minutes.

SaraMy team did the Black Gold room recently and managed to make it on the leaderboard! The puzzles were intricate and creative, and the game master was just helpful enough without giving too much away. My only slight complaint was the ending; we didn't know we'd finished until we were informed by the game master, which was a bit of a letdown. But overall, we loved it! I would definitely recommend Cipher and I can't wait to try the other two rooms!

MistiMy husband and I went with four of our friends to celebrate our anniversary. We escaped from the Black Gold room with 13 minutes to spare. It was so much fun! Our host was Mel and he made our experience even better! Will definitely be returning to try out the other two rooms!

JeffA diverse group of 7 friends attempted The Heist - almost got to the relic but didn't get out... Had a great time. Definitely recommended!

LisaFirst time at an escape room and our group had a blast. We did the Captive room and made it out with 5 min to spare! It was such an adrenaline rush!

CorySo much fun! We got a group of 8 together for the Captive room and found out pretty quickly that this one takes some real brain power. We faltered early and ran out of time and lost our lives to the serial killer. Even though we didn't get out alive I think we were all blown away with how well put together this room was and the level of detail the staff put into making you get anxious and feel like you might really lose your life if you can't get out.
