• It's been years since doing this room. My roommate and I nearly hit the best time... Ultimately, a room we were excited for but to this day, left us unsatisfied.
  
  While this room (like many others made by Maze Rooms) had a creativity to it, it's production value simply falls flat when you compare it to all of the amazing competition out there. The visuals didn't feel immersive, but like a disney channel tv show set. That is, they worked and were somewhat enjoyable, but ultimately everything just felt low-budget and cheap. To add to the lack of immersion — when place in the room, we were immediately told the door wasn't locked and that we could leave at any time... That's just not fun.
  
  That said, if you've never done an escape room, you may enjoy this. I wouldn't call it good, but has some enjoyment for those without having experienced other rooms to compare this to.
  
  However, if you're a savant looking for an optimal experience, you're better off looking elsewhere.

• Abyss is so much fun! It's very tech related and the puzzles aren't like the other puzzles in other rooms. You have to really think what you would have to do in that situation. Also, the simulations are really cool. You feel that you are truly going under water, because the capsule moves slightly to give you that feel. If you are very claustrophobic I'd advise against this room, as the space is kind of small. Not extremely small, spacious enough for 2 people to move around, but not a lot. Very fun maze room. Highly recommend.

• Girlfriend I did 'The Abyss' room. The maze was perfect for us being new to escape rooms. It got our brains spinning quite a bit but looking back at it, it wasn't as difficult as it should have been for us. It was good for beginners. Definitely a fun time and left us wanting to come back to try the other rooms out

• I attempted this room with my boyfriend recently when we found out that this opened because we had been wanting to do a room with just us 2 to see how much better we have gotten at escape rooms. This room was immersive, but that's every maze room escape room. It was pretty linear, considering how the room was only designed for 2 people to play. The only issue I had with this room was that there were a few technical issues with the room, such as things opening when they shouldn't, and other parts not working properly. I imagine they probably fixed it now, but those were some issues we had when we were playing this room. We still managed to escape with a few minutes to spare, although I imagine we would have escaped much quicker if we didn't have all those technical difficulties that threw us off.
