I decided to sign our family up for an escape room adventure. I chose one of the Harry Potter rooms through trapped escapes. We did the newest one called a diagonal Alley which is an escape room that we have to solve a variety of puzzles to get all of the horcruxes to put into the pot and have the room be unlocked. We managed to get out withh five minutes spare. both kids really enjoyed it and would like to go try the other Harry Potter room some other time. They do have other rooms but my kids are such potterheads that I knew they would really like it.
During the first 10 minutes I wasn't sure it was such a great idea that I signed us up. I was really pushing and he's out of his comfort zone with this and he would not have chosen to do this on his own. The group of four we were paired up with were random we didn't know them. They had done escape rooms before and started going all over the place trying to look for clues and it felt kind of overwhelming in such a small space to have them moving around so much and talking about what to look for when we had no clue what was going on. but once we figured out as a group what we needed to do first and got that done then there was more Space to move around because another room got unlocked and there were multiple clues to start solving at the same time.
