About the escape room

The Wexell Corporation have designed a Time Machine, but unfortunately the first group to head into it never returned. Their actions have left rifts in time, altering history and the future in ways that we cannot fathom. The only way to save the world as we know it is to fix the Time Machine, but you'll only have one minute to do so. If you fail, the machine will need to charge up before you can try again. Your only help is a small friendly robot called Wexie, and the Time Machine herself, who will try to spit you out in different timezones to try to teach you how to fix her.

AI Overview

AIPlayers consistently praise the homemade aesthetic as a strength, citing humor, heart, and inventive mechanics. Puzzles feel fair and varied, with interactions that escalate as you learn the machine. Hosts stay in character and boost immersion from the moment you arrive. Space is compact and difficulty leans moderate, so smaller teams shine and enthusiasts may finish quickly.

WeaknessesThe low‑budget, handmade look may not suit those expecting blockbuster sets. The room is compact, and experienced teams often find it easier and quicker than average.

StrengthsUnique time‑loop mechanics, witty touches, and a GM who commits to the role. Varied, logical puzzles with a smooth flow and minimal filler.

SecurityNo direct feedback on safety briefings in the reviews. No hazards were flagged.

Level of fearNot scary and played for laughs with a friendly robot guide. Family‑friendly and fine for players who avoid jump scares.

Actors' gameReviews call out the in‑character GM and even the owner for elevating the show from arrival to exit. Interaction feels playful, supportive, and immersive rather than intrusive.

Quality of riddlesFair, readable puzzles that emphasize logic and observation over heavy searching. Several mention unique interactions with the Time Machine that ramp up cleverly. Difficulty is accessible for newcomers without frustrating veterans.

PlotA glitchy Time Machine hurls you through timezones while you figure out, loop by loop, how to repair her with help from Wexie. The story unfolds through the gameplay rather than long exposition.

Difficulty levelLight to medium overall and welcoming to first‑timers. Enthusiasts may breeze through; smaller teams of 2–4 keep it snappy.
