EO Escape Rooms: Scary Tale

Although horror games aren't usually my thing, I can say I bravely ventured into this one. While I may not have been the most useful player, there were some truly lovely moments throughout. The theme is dark and macabre, reminiscent of a collaboration between the Brothers Grimm and a certain well-known American figure with a famous mouse, offering a creepy or alternative twist on their work. It was a real delight to play, and I encountered some unique elements I've not seen before in a game room.

The game does feature jump scares, but they come in the form of mechanical surprises—which you trigger yourself unknowingly (without spoiling anything, hopefully this reassures potential players). As I had anticipated the typical jump scares with witches screaming or loud sound effects, but this game doesn't rely on those. 

It's a fun experience for anyone to try and could be a great introduction for those interested in horror-themed rooms. It's not likely to leave you terrified, but it does an excellent job of building suspense in a delightful way. A truly unique and fun game!

Scary Tale was awesome  and is still in our top five rooms - we loved it with its suitably creepy dark/atmospheric theming. There’s a lot in this room with a combination of well placed tech and padlocks and puzzles that just make sense. We escaped as an experienced two with time to spare, but as with all the rooms at EO you get a lot for your money and inexperienced players might benefit from having three+ in the room. Recommended.

Wow, amazing room , kodi was the best host she was informative and fun, the room was the right amount of challenge, fun and scary. Definitely worth a play. Another massine thank you to Kodi to making this game Fantastic 🥰

I was nervous going into this, having always avoided 'scary/creepy/horror' rooms, and having one bad experience in the past, I was apprehensive, but I didn't need to be. The hosting was respectful, no gratuitous jumpscares or distractions, so you were free to get on with the puzzle solving without too much fear.  A great room in its own right, with great theming and hosting.
