Each physical escape room we visit is given a final score out of 10. This score is the average of each player's individual score, which is itself an average of the five assessment criteria set out below. These criteria are scored from 0 to 10, in 0.5 increments.

 

NOTE:

As usual, please take these scores with a grain of salt. Remember, they are entirely subjective and based on our personal experiences and preferences. Some people prefer scary rooms, some hate them; some like jump scares, some prefer creepy environments; some focus on puzzles, others focus on atmosphere and immersion. We might have been in a particularly good/bad mood on the day, or we might have gotten a particularly good/bad GM on the day. And sometimes, all it takes is one broken lock, a technical glitch, or an incomplete room reset to ruin an experience. Expectations can also play a big part, and scores will likely be coloured by our previous experiences — the more amazing rooms we do, the harder it will be for future rooms to get a super high score. But my hope is that, even if you don't agree with the scores, you might find a particular player on this blog whose tastes align more with yours.
