About the escape room
Welcome to Isla Revelles – a previously uncharted island which even the locals won’t go near, rich with clean energy resources ready for distribution. Ferrox Industries recently sent a specialist mining team to the island to start testing and transporting these resources, but after building the mining base, the entire team mysteriously disappeared.
As part of Ferrox Industries investigation crew, you have been tasked by CEO Luke Ferrox himself to go to Isla Revelles, re-establish communications to the island and find out what happened to the mining team.
But be warned, a storm front is closing in on Isla Revelles, and in 60 minutes you will be trapped on the island – along with whatever else might be there too…

AI Overview
AIPlayers consistently praise the atmosphere and visuals, but note inconsistent maintenance and tech hiccups that can break flow. Game mastering swings from friendly and in-character to overbearing with nonstop hints. Difficulty trends on the lighter side, and several mention it suits 2–3 players or beginners best.
WeaknessesTechnical issues and worn props show up in multiple reports, including broken computers and reset mistakes that mis-sequence the game. A few teams saw late starts and intrusive hinting over radio, which undercut the experience.
StrengthsThe set looks great and sells the island adventure fantasy from the first beat. Some puzzles land well and the finale has a satisfying logic core when it clicks. Hosts sometimes lean into character and even theme the safety brief, which helps immersion.
SecurityBriefings are themed to the room and comms run via walkie-talkie. Minor snafus happened, like a door left open and quickly fixed, but no major safety concerns raised.
Level of fearMore tense than terrifying—think dino danger vibes without hardcore horror. Family-friendly for most ages, though very young kids might find the ambience a bit intense.
Actors' gameHost quality varies a lot. Some GMs are welcoming and in character; others gave weak intros or pushed constant guidance over the radio.
Quality of riddlesA mixed bag: generally approachable with a couple of cool ideas, but flow can suffer if the room isn’t reset cleanly. The final puzzle has a nice logical spine, though one element leans on memory. A few interactions feel like once-techy mechanisms now simplified or retrofitted.
PlotYou’re sent by Ferrox Industries to Isla Revelles to restore comms and uncover why a mining crew vanished. The storm clock keeps pressure on without spoiling the adventure tone.
Difficulty levelLeans easy-to-moderate, ideal for 2–3 beginners or casual players. Experienced groups will likely cruise and enjoy the scenery more than the challenge.
